Saving Axolotls with Luis Zambrano

The axolotl is an amphibian with incredible regenerative abilities. It lives in only one place outside captivity: the waters of Lake Xochimilco, in Mexico City. Now, a team of scientists is working to secure its future by looking to its past. Working with local farmers, they’re reconstructing a system of chinampas, or island gardens, pioneered by the Aztecs - to restore the axolotl’s habitat. Join Dr. Luis Zambrano to hear about the incredible work being done to save this iconic amphibian! This is part of our Wild Hope series.
