Aksolotl (Ambystoma Mexicanum), zanimiva vodna pošast, laboratorijski organizem, nacionalni simbol, ki krasi mehiške bankovce, je žival, ki nastopa v več medvrstnih prepletih. Odkar je bil v sredini 19. stoletja premeščen iz mehiške jezerske doline v evropske laboratorije, se je večina raziskovalcev osredotočala predvsem na beleženje preobrazbe te vrste v modelni organizem v znanstvenih raziskavah. Aksolotl uspeva kot modelni organizem v kontroliranih pogojih, medtem ko je v svojem naravnem okolju uvrščen med ogrožene vrste. V tem članku se zgodovine aksolotla lotim s pomočjo konjunkturalističnega pristopa, pri čemer se osredotočam na aksolotlov prehod iz njegovega endemičnega okolja (jezera) v epistemični prostor (laboratorij). Trdim, da je ta premik povzročil razdvojitev vednosti o aksolotlu, ki se je razvila v njegovem naravnem habitatu, od vednosti, proizvedene v umetnem okolju laboratorija. Prek prepletanja pripovedi in kontekstov, ki aksolotla obdajajo v različnih okoljih, članek poskuša spodbuditi dialog med avtohtonimi perspektivami in znanstvenimi praksami. Poleg tega bo pokazal, da habitate pomembno oblikujejo zunanji dejavniki, ki pogosto postanejo neprepoznavni po tem, ko žival vstopi v laboratorij. Obravnava teh zapletov bo razkrila, da je naše razumevanje neke vrste neločljivo povezano s kontekstom, v katerem se proučuje, in nakazala možnosti zbliževanja pripovedi iz različnih okolij
