I dont think its a newt, because they live in the water, right? And there's no ponds or anything nearby. I just found it when i was digging crawling along the mud, not sure if it came out of the ground or what. Help anyone ? :)
Sorry Guys! Im in England, the South east
Some more pics...

Looks very much like a fire belly newt. Most tiger salamanders have the colors on their entire bodies.
