Subject: Feral Axolotls (II)

          In my first request for information on feral axolotl
          populations, I omitted my email address.  This is a repeat
          message.

          I am trying to determine if there are any self-sustaining
          feral populations of axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) anywhere
          in the world.

          That is, are there any cases of reproducing axolotl
          populations in the wild outside their natural range which
          would have been started from animals released or escaped
          from laboratory or pet stock.

          Thanks,
