An abstract flat color illustration of a tiger salamander, with a color scheme of greens and periwinkle

May 2025 member sticker: Silly Salamander

It's been a heck of a month, but it's always a good time for another amphibian! Tiger salamanders appear throughout the US, and that apparently includes the shrub steppe. They're rare to see (I certainly haven't seen any), but that's probably due in part to a combination of small populations and being burrowing animals.

This is a metamorphosed one, but apparently they come in gilled (think axolotl) form as well! Maybe I'll draw that variant sometime.

Cane members signed up by the end of the month will receive this 4 inch sticker in the mail. Thanks so much!
