Pesticide Applications DEtrimental to the California Tiger Salamander

The California tiger salamander, like all amphibians, is especially vulnerable to poisoning by toxic pesticides because of its semi-permeable skin. Through the Center's Pesticides Reduction Campaign, we’re challenging the Environmental Protection Agency’s registration and authorization-for-use of 46 toxic pesticides in and upstream of habitats for San Francisco Bay Area endangered species, including this salamander.
