Mud Puppy Photo's
« on: October 03, 2009, 03:16:40 AM »
Here are a couple photo's of the Mud Puppies for those who have neve seen one before. They came out of the car one of my fellow divers found in the river and we recovered.

The car pulled up on the boat ramp, that is me on the right.

Tom
The pictures got sent to me in a thumb nail format, I didn't figure on them not expanding???? So I edited the post and reloaded the pics after blowing them up to a larger size. Think this might help them old eyes some LOL! It does suck though not seeing as well doesn't it. My hearing is shot out too can only hear the crickets now when it is stone quiet, no back ground noise. O-well whats a guy to do? can't beat the aging thing.

Neat stuff Mac. Never seen one in person. The old timers claimed they would pinch the heck out of your toes when wading.

There are plenty of people around here that have live along the river their whole life and never seen a mud puppy. I myself have been fishing and diving the river my whole life and only see them on ocassion. This was unusual for me because in the past I've only seen mud puppies pretty much one at a time. There were several that had made this car their home. So anyway I figured there were others out there that may have never seen one and might like to.

In all my years of being outdoors, I have only saw one.
Kind of prehistoric looking. I like pics of any wildlife so keep
