Removed this large Fire Salamander from the well.

It either lived there (the well is mostly dry due to a leak) or it got syphoned into it with today's heavy . It was resting on top of the only bit of rock that stood above the water surface.

Any advice on how/where to release this fella? I know they need access to water so I might need to find a stream or pond of sorts in the vicinity.

In response to this post

Find the nearest lake or large pond that has a stream flowing into it. Go the the point where the stream flows into the body of water, then travel a couple hundred yards upstream and set it right next to the water's edge there and walk away.

This is also a good environ to release captured varmints, albeit it must be done in an area far from residential housing--such as a wilderness preserve or large state park.
