Yellow-spotted Salamander (Ambystoma maculatum)

[guppiecat]

From Wikipedia: “The spotted salamander, like other salamanders, shows great regenerative abilities: if a predator manages to dismember a part of a leg, tail, or even parts of the brain, head or organs, the salamander can grow back a new one, although this takes a massive amount of energy.”

I am now envisioning a salamander super-villain who has to drain the life force of others to regrow his limb.
