We have tons of them out here in the swamp. My kids like going out after it rains to see how many they can find.

I have seen some ponds in South East Ohio that had many thousand Eastern Newts in them, in both the larval and later aquatic adult stage. I have never found a red inbetween stage, terrestrial one.

I have met Newt in person a number of times, some on one of his "good' days. Although he is aquatic much of the time, I have never seen him look like that eft. Quite the metamorphosis I'd say...
