More about the book
Misconceptions about salamanders abound, even among experts, as many believe they are confined to northern temperate regions and aquatic environments. In reality, over half of the species thrive in subtropical and tropical areas of the New World, with many adapted to higher temperatures and independent of aquatic habitats. Contrary to the belief that their brains and behaviors are primitive, studies reveal that salamanders possess advanced sensory systems and exhibit complex behaviors influenced by individual experiences, particularly in feeding and prey selection.
