Earlier on I found this creature in my basement. It was in my laundry room, in the middle of the floor. I have no idea how it got there. I can only imagine that my dog bought it in and then forgot about it. Question is what is it? Can anyone have a guess? I actually have no idea.

It looks like a little gheko to me, but I've never seen a black one with yellow spots. Doesn't that usually indicate it's poisonous to other creatures? I have a few at home, but they're greyish and help keep the mozzies at bay. Good to have around.

priya, I found out it's a salamander, and yes it is poisonous! Not enough to really harm a human but still. Here's more about it on here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamander

It was handled. But no one got poisoned.

Yes, it was released the next day. I don't like keeping these little critters, they belong in the wild, and don't do too well in captivity.
