Yes, axolotls are aquatic animals and they have the ability to breathe underwater through their skin and gills. They extract the dissolved oxygen from the water through their skin and gills and release carbon dioxide back into the water. However, they also need to come up to the surface occasionally to take in air.

YES, AXOLOTLS ARE AMPHIBIANS THAT HAVE THE ABILITY TO BREATHE UNDERWATER THROUGH THEIR GILLS. UNLIKE MOST AMPHIBIANS SUCH AS FROGS AND TOADS, AXOLOTLS DO NOT UNDERGO METAMORPHOSIS.

Axolotls are a type of salamander that can only be found in Mexico. They are able to regenerate their limbs and even parts of their spinal cord. They are also popular as pets and are often used in scientific research.
