Description
This semi-amphibious species has a wide variety of skin coloration as well as numerous mucus glands that secrets a toxic chemical that coats the majority of their epidermis. While they are impervious to the affects of this toxin it seems to have an immediate adverse affect on most other species. They have small eyes with a second eyelid that blinks often to keep the eye moist and to protect it when they are not in the water. For the most part males and females are identical except for subtle differences in skin coloration with the males having darker skin colors. Both males and females are on average between 3 1/2 foot to 5 foot tall.
Physiology
