Amphibian Life List
This is my list of all the amphibians I have seen and identified in my life.
There are over 7,000 amphibians - frogs, toads, salamanders and newts - around the world. But unlike mammals or birds, Identifying amphibians comes slowly and often requires patience. Amphibians are dear to me and I often write about them in my notes.
I often draw sketches of some of my finds and hope to continuing doing so into the future. I also keep a life list of reptiles.

Rough-Skinned Newt
People who have lived in Oregon much longer than I have told me of the eerie disappearance of these amphibians over the past 50 years. The refrain is that they have vivid recollections of Rough-skinned Newts everywhere in the spring season. This newt is also one of the most toxic in North America, its toxin being similar to that of the Pufferfish.
Southern Leapoard Frog
Strawberry Poison Frog
I write about the Strawberry Poison Frog in my notes on Salt Creek, Isla Bastimentos, Panama.

Three-striped Poison Frog
Western Red-backed Salamander
Woodland Salamander
