Tiger salamanders have been shown to travel up to 255 meters after their breeding cycles are complete, which is likely them returning to their original home ranges. [21] Some research has shown that females will travel farther than males. [22] However, a single tiger salamander has only a 50% chance of breeding more than once in its lifetime.

These salamanders are mostly terrestrial and eat invertebrates, although some species are known to eat smaller salamanders.
