White says he isn't sure what kind of salamander this was, but he wanted to post videos on Facebook just in case it's someone's pet.
There have been numerous videos of catfish washing up into Florida residents' yards as heavy rain bands came down across Central Florida from Hurricane Ian. The hurricane made landfall in Florida on Wednesday afternoon near Cayo Costa as a powerful Category 4 storm before weakening as it moved across the state.
