Newt

The Newt (Lissotriton vulgaris) is a carnivore species found in European ponds and gardens. It typically lives 6-10 years, weighing around 0.0035 kg, and is currently classified as Least Concern on conservation status lists.

One fact worth knowing about the newt: Newts can regrow lost limbs, eyes, and even hearts.

Amphibians live a double life, often starting in water as larvae before transforming to breathe air as adults. Frogs, toads, and salamanders are especially sensitive to environmental change, making them useful indicators of ecosystem health.
