Everyone wants an axolotl since they were featured in the game minecraft. Axolotl are hard to find- some scientists estimate that there are fewer then 1,000 axolotl left in their native waters around Mexico City.

Last month there was good news though! Captive bred Axolotl are thriving in wild. Read more about it in this fascinating study of Axolotl!
