The World's Biggest Amphibian "Chinese Giant Salamander"


The Chinese giant salamander is the largest amphibian in the world to grow up to 6 feet (180 cm) long. Fat tail length can be 60 percent of its length. These animals are found in the deep waters around China, but the peanut butter in China there is also a very similar species in Japan.
In the presence of wild animals is increasingly difficult to find because they are on the list of endangered species which certainly was very alarming. So many things can easily affect them such as air and water pollution, and loss of their habitat, so no wonder their numbers have decreased. Another problem is that these animals are also trusted by the local population as a medicine and is used as an ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine.
The salamander has a large head with very small eyes and no eyelids. Despite having poor eyesight, was ranked as the animal food chain in their habitat. They like to eat frogs, fish and various types of insects. Because their eyesight is so bad it is not their primary hunting tool. They feel the vibration from moving animals to find prey. The female giant salamander is able to produce up to five hundred salamander eggs and males will wait and keep an eye on the eggs until they hatch. This process can take one to two months.
