Question
Tadpole look a like
My daughter and some friends were looking in a stream, creek like water hole and they found these little tadpole looking things. I looked at them and do not believe they are tadpoles. They have longer front legs and a few have back legs. They have a fish like tail and wing like projections off the top of their bodied. I thought they may have been later stage tadpoles, but the baby ones even look like the bigger ones. Please help me in finding out what these are. Here is a pic and I have more if needed.
AnswerMan I don't know Bridget. I live in Ohio and it kind of looks like a mud puppy. I don't know if you have ever seen a mud puppy but the first time you do you won't forget it. When I was a kid we spent a lot of time at the Muskingum river. One night we are playing around and this fish thing came walking right out of the river. Kind of looked like that. Thanks, Eric
