I always thought salamanders were pretty cool little creatures. I'd heard about the giant salamander but I honestly had no idea they grew to be this big. The largest ones I've ever found were a small red species in Pennsylvania. I always thought they were kind of cute but I can see why people would think otherwise. Thank you for informing about the extinction currently going on, I had no idea about the scale of this and I'm sure neither do many others.

They are cool, in the US you have the eastern Hellbender which can grow to two feet long, supposedly they are quite abundant in areas of Pennsylvania, maybe one day you'll be lucky enough to stumble upon one. :)
The situation for Amphibians is pretty dire globally, sadly they aren't adorable and fluffy so they are quite a difficult sell to the general population.
