- "These pesky monsters are often responsible for forest fires, as they love to burrow under dying trees and then emit fire blasts from their backs. They love intense heat and are immune to fire. Capturing one is very challenging because if they are captured incorrectly, they explode immediately. The awful smell from their gooed carcasses has been known to attract the almost impenetrable monster, Repticore."

There Is No "I" in Monster Hunter[]
Jake, Hayley and Felix attempt to capture a Fire Salamander, but when Hayley and Felix's plan fails, Jake, overcome with arrogance, captures the Salamander in his backpack, causing it to explode.
The Salamander goo remaining soon after attracts a Repticore.

A Fire Salamander is among the captive monster which escape courtesy of a power failure. It is seen escaping with the other monsters.
It was presumably recaptured with the other monsters.
