World Environment Day 2025
View of axolotls in an axolotl tank at Lake Xochimilco in Mexico City, Mexico, on 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, on July 5, 2025. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
