Tailed Salamanders

The truth is qe and be felt. The days have more daylight hours, the temperature rises, the snow will melt and we all have that something that will put nerviosillos (in my case even more nerviosillo). Spring has arrived, at least chronologically and that there is still some forecasting snow this week.
The first animals to notice these changes are usually insects begin to stir and herpetofauna. It's time that these animals magical twilight and manners are amphibians begin their wanderings.
A challenge for this year was able to view and Salamander fotgrafiar Dartford in adulthood, and so far had only managed to see larval and juvenile stages. Yesterday I finally get it, besides looking at No. 1 single, but 5 adult individuals Chioglossa lusitanica

Salamandra Dartford ( Chioglossa lusitanica)

In a vertical wall full of holes and lined by moss dripping water and life everywhere we can find these little dancers from moisture. It's amazing agility and reminiscent of a reptile for speed rather than an amphibian. Its back is confused with orange tones of the rock and the dry grass flattened by the rain. Last night was rainy and about 10 º. Dartford
The salamander is one of those gems that presents the Cantabrian mountain range that makes that wind through the valleys and mountains further appreciate the wealth of these lands. Knowing it's there is gorgeous, but you can find them and know that there are indeed still brings more satisfaction.

Lusitanica Chioglossa

As you can see, in adults inidividuos queue length is significant with respect to the body. Etos ls animals choose areas that water has a high purity for desarrollr their life cycle. This means that often choose galleries of abandoned mines or similar places where the water flows directly from the earth.
This animal can detach from the tail under threat and often moves to a potential hazard to attract the attention of the predator and thus be able to escape once it has shifted its attention.
As you will know amphibians are animals that are in serious regression process. The appearance of mycosis that affect them, the destruction of their habitats, etc ... are problems that affect them. For them it is good to preserve places like the one I visited yesterday in which I can also find a salamander, a long-legged frog, common frogs and toads vermilion.
