A Couch's spadefoot toad belts out its unique mating call near a pond in St. David, Ariz., Monday, July 6, 1998. Couch's spadefoot toads spend 10 months underground before hearing the drumming of rain on the desert floor during the summer monsoon. Then they rise en masse to mate in washes and pools of water, their songs echoing in the night.(AP Photo/Tucson Citizen, Gary Gaynor)

** FILE ** This undated file image provided by the Center for Biological Diversity shows a Siskiyou Mountain salamander. Two rare salamanders, including this Siskiyou Mountain salamander, that live in old growth forests along the Klamath River don't need Endangered Species Act protection because existing state and federal protections are adequate to maintain their habitat, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Tuesday April 25, 2006.
