View of trajineras near an axolotl on Lake Xochimilco in Mexico City, Mexico, on July 5, 2025, during World Environment Day. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), also known as the Mexican salamander, is a species of caudate amphibian in the Ambystomatidae family, related to the tiger salamander. According to legend, the axolotl is the Aztec god of fire and lightning, Xolotl, who disguises himself as a salamander to avoid being sacrificed. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
