Amphibian Migration

Amphibian Migration

- in Outdoors

One of Northeast Ohio’s coolest events is the annual amphibian migration. On a relatively warm (+45 degree) night each spring – usually in March – salamanders migrate to vernal pools and lay their eggs. Most of our surrounding park districts invite the public to watch. The problem this year is that the migrations took place earlier than normal because of  unusually warm weather.
