- This shows development from two weeks before hatching through 7 weeks after hatching. These Yellow-Spotted Salamanders were collected from and returned to a temporary pond in the Missouri Ozarks, USA. I reared and filmed ten of them. Some developed faster than others which becomes obvious during the 7th week. The juveniles were 2.5 inches when released. Juveniles live on land, and after 2-3 years they mature into adults that can reproduce. They will grow to around 6 or 7 inches and have been known to live up to 32 years. More than 90% die before transforming into adults and leaving their pools, either because the ponds dry up, or they are hunted down by predators or else, die of diseases. They make terrible pets because they prefer to stay hidden. Filmed March 23 - May 27, 2019 with a Sony AX100. CC Music: Sixteen Twenty Five
I didn't think any malice or anything unethical was going on. I do think you had all the best of intentions. I only wanted to point out a few things. Best wishes only. If you didn't Care about these animals you wouldn't be " caring" for them the way you did, so that is very commendable to me.
A great and informative video ! 👍👍👍
How did you catch the insects to feed them?
Hi, food came from pond water while they were small. I switched to frozen bloodworms purchased from a pet store.
4:37 I have ascended
Incredible filming, koodos
How many had passed away from the original clutch. I am raising a newly hatched clutch at about a week old jus starting to eat, and I am curious on what to expect
I returned all but 10 to the pond. All 10 survived!

Pet cute!
Found a 3.5 inch one in my garage last night. Released him outside in the woods near my pond and stream. Lots of leaves, rocks and dirt. Hope he makes it through the winter.
Thanks for making this video! It’s awesome to be able to see development in a video like this!
Before you release them, do you keep them in an aquaterrarium/paludarium or sm?? The enviroment of your videos looks so natural 😍
Hi, I built a structure inside the aquarium with rocks that emerged from the water. I added mud and moss to the top.
had one but it died😭😭😭

Oh I do apologize I just read th e description after commenting th e question about their size
And how large are the newly emerged juveniles?
About 3 inches long
I have two will they need to leave the water
Yes. Be sure to have something, like a rock with moss, above the water line.
Did you gradually reduce the water line to aid the metamorphosis?
Also, how did you get them to eat inatamet food?
Hi, I built a rock tower and put some moss and mud on top. They happily went in and out of the water at will. I was surprised that they ate frozen blood worms that I bought at a pet store. I also replaced about a fourth of the aquarium water with fresh pond water every few days.
This video is awesome ! thanks
Hahah 3:00 sweet revenge
That’s awesome! How did you video the eggs up close?
In an aquarium made of high clarity glass with a 10x lens.
