Salamander Those species of salamander that live underground are often either white or pink in colour due to the fact that their skin is never exposed to the sun. The skin of salamanders secretes mucus, which helps keep the animal moist when on dry land, and maintains their salt balance while in water, as well as providing a lubricant during swimming.
