Future Goals
oe’s Salamanders is focused on expanding both the diversity of amphibian species they offer and the educational impact of their presence at reptile expos. A key goal is to increase breeding efforts for rare and underrepresented salamander and newt species, while maintaining high standards for animal welfare and habitat accuracy. This includes working toward more sustainable captive-bred lines and improving husbandry protocols to share with fellow keepers and educators. Another future goal is to further develop their creative and educational product line. By producing more original artwork, 3D models, and interactive learning tools, Joe’s Salamanders aims to enhance the customer experience at reptile shows and build a bridge between science and creativity. They also plan to expand their digital footprint with care guides, online merchandise, and potentially virtual workshops or live-streamed animal showcases—making their unique blend of education, art, and amphibians accessible to a wider audience.
