If not why not? If they do, what sort is appropriate? For how long into the regeneration period do they require painkillers? 2) Is there another anesthetic other than MS222 appropriate for anesthetising the axolotls for such an amputation? Thanks, -- Jordi Cant? Martorell Director Servei d'Estabulari - SIAL Universitat Aut?noma de Barcelona SPAIN
