All About Axolotls: March 2025 Monthly Meeting

Our presenter this month will be Paige MacGregor. Her presentation is titled All About Axolotls: The salamander that never grows up.

In this presentation, Paige F. MacGregor of LibertyLand Axolotl Rescue will touch upon the origin of axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum), the differences between axolotls in the wild and those in captivity, a few significant milestones in axolotl history, and debunk some common misconceptions about axolotl care (water parameters, habitat, diet, etc.). Questions welcome!

Going forward, our meeting location at the Aquarium has moved from the cafe to the Simons IMAX Theatre; look for the BAS sign when as you are walking up to the front door.

After the talk, we will have our usual monthly auction, with a 50/50 split.

As a reminder, there is always plenty of street parking in the area especially along India Street (set your GPS for 35 India Street). Parking meters are free due to the holiday (Evacuation Day). Paid parking is available nearby in the Boston Harbor Garage. If you are taking the MBTA, take the Blue line to Aquarium.
