The California tiger salamander is a discriminating species that can only thrive in unique and now extremely rare habitats. As California’s pools, grasslands, and woodlands continue to disappear so do this specie’s number in population. This specie’s plight is particularly extreme in Sonoma County where development threatens 95% of remaining salamander’s habitat as well as in Santa Barbra. Both Sonoma and Santa Barbra populations have now been federally listed as endangered.
