part of their lives in water and part on land. They usually have
soft, moist skin that is protected by a slippery layer of mucus. They
also tend to live in moist places or near water to keep their bodies
from drying out. There are three main groups of amphibians: caecilians;
salamanders, newts, and mudpuppies; and frogs and toads
