Axolotls are often referred to as “Mexican walking fish,” but they are actually amphibians that prefer to live their entire lives underwater. These remarkable creatures can regenerate almost every part of their bodies if necessary, including their spines, internal organs and even some parts of their brains. They have a very unique appearance and are extremely popular as exotic pets, but they can also be found in captivity at zoos, laboratories and breeding facilities. There are almost none of these creatures left in the wild.

We have observed Axolotl 41 times world wild from 2021-08-08 till this date with the last observation being in 2022-06-26 in Brazil.

Our data suggest that Axolotl are highly active in February, March and January world wild but differences observed on country level, while the lowest activity observed on December and June.

We noticed also the top 3 countries to observe Axolotl in are: Germany, Peru and United States respectively.
