Reproduction is a key distinguishing behavior between amphibians and reptiles. Amphibians, like salamanders, typically lay their eggs in water, whereas reptiles, such as lizards, lay their eggs on land or give birth to live young. This difference in reproductive behavior can help identify the Salalizard as either more amphibian or reptile.
