starsprayMy favorite thing to happen this month is that Pennsylvania's legislator has voted (and Governor Wolf has signed) to make the Eastern Hellbender Salamander our state amphibian.
This thing, as the largest salamander in North America, can grow up to two feet long and lives under rocks and in the mud, and is covered in mucus. It has a bunch of names aside from the official one, including mud devil and lasagna lizard.
But my favorite name for it is Snot Otter.
My state's official amphibian is the Snot Otter and I am delighted.
