The Amphibian Survival Alliance (ASA) is showing the world that amphibians are as ‘adorable’ and deserving of our admiration and protection as are feathered or furry animals. Check out their #SqueeWeek social media campaign and you’ll agree wholeheartedly! As a formal Amphibian Survival Alliance Partner organization, RTPI will do its part and we’ll show off some of our favorite amphibian friends this week. Since salamanders have been a bit underrepresented in this week’s coverage, how about this recently hatched Northern Dusky Salamander (Desmognathus fuscus)? Probably not the first species even dedicated amphibian aficionados would put on the top of their ‘squee’ list, but you have to admit that this is pretty cute!
