83% Informative
The achoque salamander is a lesser known relative of the axolotl, the small friendly-faced amphibian battling extinction in Mexico City .
Overfishing, pollution and reduced water levels in Lake Patzcuaro , its only natural habitat, mean that it is listed as critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature .
Biologists pay the local Indigenous community of San Jeronimo Purenchecuaro to help the amphibian to reproduce.
