The fire salamander is poisonous rather than venomous, so it does not inject venom with a bite. Its skin secretions contain alkaloid toxins, mainly samandarin, which cause strong muscle convulsions and high blood pressure, combined with fast breathing, in all vertebrates. Another alkaloid, samandarone, has also been found in its skin secretions. The poison comes from glands concentrated around the head and along the back.1

Its bright yellow, red or orange colours warn predators that it is poisonous, and it releases toxins from its skin glands.1

ሓቅታት
One fire salamander lived for more than 50 years in Museum Koenig, a natural history museum in Germany.1
Larvae do not make the poison. It develops as the salamander matures, in the ovaries, liver and testes.1
Its skin poison may also help protect it against bacterial and fungal infections of the skin.1
Its bright colours are a warning signal. Scientists call this aposematism, meaning the animal advertises that it is poisonous.1
Some subspecies give birth to live young, while others release larvae into water. Only two subspecies, fastuosa and bernadezi, give birth to fully formed young.1
In captivity, females can store sperm for a long time and use it to produce another clutch of eggs. This has not been seen in the wild.1

- Eggs develop inside the female, and she puts the larvae into water as they hatch. In some subspecies, the young develop inside the female until she gives birth to fully formed young.1
