What makes this such an unusual amphibian is how it reaches adulthood. It does not undergo metamorphosis (the process in which they develop lungs and legs and take to land) that typically occurs in amphibians. The Axototl retains the characteristics it develops at the larval stage, keeping its gills and retaining an aquatic life.
