    Small salamanders that look like worms
    My parents live in Oakland cal and they found a creature that looks like an earth worm. It has bulgy eyes and a face of a crocodile it has two small feet in front and two small feet in back. One way you look at it, it looks like a salamander then you look at it again and it looks like a worm. Its very small and brown. Any idea of what this is?

    Do you have a photo? Or have you tried looking through Google Image results for something similar? Also, how small is it? The size of an earthworm?

    No I don't have a pic. It's a bit smaller than an earth worm, and the feet almost look like toes. Also, they found it in a moist area it has to be wet to live. Thanks for the sites I will look into that.
