First mural of 2022 and first international painting BC19 - Roma Mexico City! This is a critically endangered Axolotl also known as a Mexican salamander. They only live in mexico in three waterways: “chalco lake” “chapultepec lake” and “xochimilco” which is polluted. Their population of mature adults in the wild is around 50-1000 individuals! Which means that there is a disproportionately larger captive population in aquariums around the world! Threats:international pet industry, local food, local medicine, invasive species, housing developments, domestic, industrial, agricultural, and garbage pollution. This wall was made possible by my local homeslice alex - @juicy_colors biggup for being a legend and hosting us in mexico city! One love
