“Is it a rock? A baked potato? Nope — it’s an eastern hellbender!” officials wrote.
Experts said that since they require clean water and a stable habitat, their presence could be a sign of a healthy stream, but their decline could be an early warning for environmental problems. Because of this, officials likened the hellbender to a “canary in a coal mine” for stream health.
The rare species reportedly spends most of its life hidden at the bottoms of cool, fast-flowing streams under large flat rocks, making them hard to find.
