Thanks for the information, I'm not sure what the requirements for captive breeding are that you refer to and what organization it is that is setting them as you didn't state that.
I don't think that harvesting for pets is a tiger salamaders biggest treat,(or most animals for that matter) by a longshot, human developement of their habitat, running them over with cars on new roads thru their habitat, and of course water polution are ginourmously more threatening, and the only real solution to that is for humans to stop having so many damn babies and stop bulldozing the country-side to make way for PHD's and MD's half-million dollar plus houses, so I'm not going to loose any sleep over taking a couple in as pets and giving them a spoiled free from preditors lifestyle.
