Wood Frog

Temperatures have to dip slightly below 32 degrees Fahrenheit to freeze a frog, and ice begins to grow when an ice crystal touches the frog’s skin. Like falling dominoes, the ice triggers a cascade of particles that form as the temperature drops.

As the wood frog is freezing, its heart continues pumping the protective glucose around its body, but the frog’s heart slows and eventually stops. All other organs stop functioning. The frog doesn’t use oxygen and actually appears to be dead.

When spring arrives, ice crystals over the wood frog’s body melts and its heart actively begins to pump blood and once again the wood frog comes into life after being in a state of suspension throughout the winter.Scientists are still trying to unlock the secrets of the wood frog . Perhaps one day even humans could be frozen alive. But this the wood frog has been doing since the ice age.
