Amphibians Eastern Hellbender
Amphibians Eastern Hellbender are large, aquatic salamanders native to eastern North America. They have flat bodies with wrinkled skin, small eyes, and distinctively shaped folds on their sides. These nocturnal predators primarily feed on crayfish and other small aquatic animals. Hellbenders are known for their important role in aquatic ecosystems and are considered indicators of water quality due to their sensitivity to pollution.
