 The giant salamander with fangs may have lived 280 million years ago, and they claim that Namibia was in a much colder region of the world at that time (they claim glacial region).

According to what I've read elsewhere, this is a stem tetrapod (and therefore not a salamander).

 Click on the link in the fourth paragraph and you can get a copy of the Nature article to read, otherwise the article is pay walled.
