Notes

This huge adult CA Giant Salamander was observed walking on a dirt trail at 1 PM in Santa Cruz County. You can just barely see the salamander opening its mouth as it produces this first roar. Then we can hear the salamander making some more raspy rattling sounds as it stands in a defensive posture. This video was originally submitted to CaliforniaHerps.com and used with permission of Gary Nafis and the photographer (who wishes to remain anonymous).
