I need to get back out on the trails. Best time of year to see these little guys. #californianewt

After the first November rains arrive, look for California Newts on the move! 🌧️🦎 After a long dry season tucked away in rock crevices, burrows, or under logs, they’re heading back to their breeding ponds—sometimes the very ones where they hatched.

A little #CaliforniaNewt was crossing the hiking trail yesterday

Due to their toxicity, these newts have few natural #predators, among them the #Garter #snakes. On the other hand, #California #newts will prey on #earthworms #snails #slugs #woodlice #bloodworms #mosquito #larvae, #crickets & other #invertebrates! #carnivore #Californianewt
