This is the salamander or axolotl, depends how you want to pronounce.
Whose scientific name is "Ambystoma mexicanum".
It is a type of amphibious quite difficult to find in nature.
Even before it was endangered, as now.
Since only found in Mexico City, on some channels, rivers and lakes, especially in the area of Xochimilco.
And, as mentioned, is becoming extinct because it is often used for medicinal purposes.
Of course, often unproven, as with other non-traditional medicine.
Or for use in captivity.
We hope you enjoy this video this beautiful animal.
And so no one has no need to buy it, and then to avoid extinction in the wild.
