EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the graceful and enchanting movement of an Axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) as it swims in its underwater habitat in an aquarium in the United Kingdom. The Axolotl, also known as the Mexican walking fish or the Mexican salamander, is a unique and fascinating neotenic salamander, meaning it retains its external gills and larval features throughout its entire life. Native to Mexico, Axolotls have become increasingly popular as exotic pets due to their unusual appearance and ability to adapt well in captivity. In their natural habitat, they live in freshwater lakes and canals, but in this image, we see one thriving in a carefully curated aquarium environment. The Axolotl's translucent skin reveals the intricate details of its internal organs, and its gills work efficiently to extract oxygen from the water. Its expression is calm and serene, showcasing the captivating charm that has made it a beloved creature among amphibian enthusiasts. This photograph, taken by renowned wildlife photographer Mark Boulton, is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the Axolotl. It is important to remember that these creatures are to be appreciated for their unique qualities and should be treated with care and respect.
