A look into our conservation efforts for North America’s largest salamander! 🌎 22 Eastern hellbenders were fitted with radio transmitters in preparation for their release into Middle Tennessee waterways later this year. The radio transmitters will allow us to track and monitor them following their release. These hellbenders have grown up in our Hellbender Headstart Program and will help bolster the wild population of this state-endangered species! 💛 | Nashville Zoo

In the month of August we released over 100 Hellbenders into streams in southern and eastern Ohio! These hellbenders are the largest salamander species in the Americas, and are important in stream ecosystems. We're so excited to continue working with the conservation of this species which lives so close to home!

Located in our own backyard, the fascinating hellbender has been an ongoing interest to the Saint Louis Zoo for the past 30 years. The hellbender is a long-lived salamander with two subspecies: The Ozark hellbender and the eastern hellbender. Since 2011, the Ozark hellbender subspecies has been listed as federally endangered, and in 2019 the Missouri population of the eastern hellbender was listed as federally endangered. We believe the place to save the hellbender, like any other form of wildli
