What animal(s) are known to be able to survive being frozen and thawed multiple times?
What is the Wood Frog and Painted Turtle Hatchlings
- Wood Frogs: Native to North America, wood frogs can survive having 65-70% of their body water converted to ice during winter months. They produce glucose and urea, which act as natural antifreeze compounds, preventing their cells from being damaged by ice crystals. When spring arrives and temperatures rise, wood frogs gradually thaw from the inside out, with their hearts beginning to beat even while ice still clings to their skin.
- Painted Turtle Hatchlings: These hatchlings brave the winter by freezing solid in their nests. Their blood's natural antifreeze properties prevent ice from forming in their cells. This adaptation ensures their survival through harsh conditions until warmer weather.
