The Ax-acting Truth

No, they are amphibians. They just refuse to grow up and leave the water like responsible adults.

Do axolotls bite?

Technically yes, but they have tiny sandpaper teeth. It feels like being gummed by a very aggressive velcro strip.

Can I hold my axolotl?

You really shouldn’t. Their skin is super sensitive and your oily human hands are gross to them.

Why is my axolotl staring at me?

He is waiting for food. That is the only thought in his head. Food.
