mudpuppy

Mudpuppys are really common...they aren't even threatened.

The common name is meant for the common name of the species. If not known it can be left blank. In any event the name you placed there was inappropriate. I have taken the liberty of inserting the common name from the species suggestion that has been provided for your spotting.

Nice spotting, Michael muhlig.
May I ask why is it called "lawyer" ?

I have moved this to amphibians. I also hope you returned it to the water before it died as they cannot stay out of water long before suffocating.
