Does the “fish” you just caught have legs? If so, it may be a mudpuppy - Ontario’s largest salamander.We want your Mudpuppy sightings! Mudpuppies are those big salamanders with gills that we often pull up through our ice fishing holes this time of year.
Report your sightings to the Ontario Reptile and Amphibian Atlas by taking a photo and sending it to atlas@ontarionature.org.
Even better, download the atlas app at http://www.ontarionature.org/protect/species/app.php to quickly and easily report all your species sightings.
