The Axolotl, (pronounced ACK-suh-LAH-tuhl), is a fascinating creature, recognized by its very unique appearance, with button-like eyes and a seemingly perpetual grin plastered on its adorable face. Known by its scientific name, Ambystoma mexicanum, it is a paedomorphic salamander related to the tiger salamander. The Axolotl is commonly referred to as the Mexican Walking Fish by Australians and New Zealanders, although it is not a fish but an amphibian, part of the order Caudata\/Urodela. Another common misconception is that axolotls and other salamanders are lizards or reptiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
