Introducing the Marquette Salamanders.

The migration of blue-spotted salamanders at Presque Isle park, occurs during early spring when these amphibians emerge from their underground habitats to journey to nearby wetlands.

Under the cover of darkness and favorable moist conditions, the salamanders make their way to the Presque Isle bog, where they engage in courtship and egg-laying activities.

Join us in celebrating these beautiful creatures that make our community unique. We envision a future of celebrating the quirky (and slippery), a future Marquette with murals of salamanders and patterns of blue spots.

A portion of all Salamanders sales will be donated to the MooseWood Nature Center located at Presque Isle Park.
