I have a hunch that this little guy, found in the wilds of Mexico, is the world's answer to "what is an amazing sea monkey anyway???", a question that I'm sure we've all been asking for years. Unfortunately, like millions of other species, the Axolotl's existence is threatened due to poor water quality. Apparently it can't even be reintroduced into other countries because of a feared massive Axolotl take over!
On a more positive note, and as a reason to champion the Axolotl's survival, the best thing about the Axolotl is that it never grows out of the larva stage! It's like he/she takes a peak at the world and decides, nah, I'd rather just stay here, and unlike us, can stay! And of course, it's adorable (because I, like the rest of us, only want to save adorable things).
