Amphibian caresheets and tips
I am thinking about keeping a salamander or newt for a pet. (after reading up about them and learning how to take care of one, of course!) What is the best way to catch one, and where do most live?
You should never take an animal out of the wild. In a lot of places it is illegal and also they could come diseased and will be more aggressive then a captive bred.
Go to a pet store and buy a captive bred one (they can order you in one if they don't have one)

The popular book- Frogs and Toads: Your happy healthy pet is illustrated throughout with full-color photographs of commonly kept frogs as well as exotic varieties.
This book contains all of the information you need to learn how to care for your new frog. You'll find information on how to choose a frog or toad, creating and maintaining you new pets habitat, feeding and caring for your pet and how to keep your amphibian healthy.
