I've never thought about actually purchasing anything for my pond, so I went to see what I could find online. I found some helpful information over at <a href="http://www.fishpondinfo.com/saly.htm#where" rel="nofollow">Robyn's Salamander and Newt Page</a> on FishPondInfo.com. Here's what I learned: <blockquote> <a href="http://www.tricker.com/" rel="nofollow">William Tricker, Inc.</a> in Ohio sells what they call "American salamanders" but they sound like Eastern newts. Their catalog costs $5. Call 1-800-524-3492 or use their web site. </blockquote> There's a ton of other information on that website (FishPondInfo.com) so if you're looking to learn more that's a great start. There's also a Newt and Salamander portal called <a href="http://www.caudata.org/" rel="nofollow">Cuadata.org</a> that's pretty neat, too. For total fun, we watched a couple of videos I found on YouTube so that my we'll be better able to spot any newt activity or eggs at our own pond.
