“It is not the most attractive animal,” the senator said, laughing. *OUCH* “They’re not necessarily the animal you would expect to see on a cereal box. But they’re really cool.” *GOOD SAVE* 😅 #hellbender #amphibians #salamander

Female #hellbenders lay up to 500 eggs at a time. After the eggs hatch, the young stay with the male, who is also known as the ‘denmaster’, before spending a year living on the riverbed, eating insect larvae. After this, they metamorphose into adult hellbenders. #wildlife
