Living Frozen Organisms
Warm-blooded organisms and fish will die quickly when frozen in ice due to asphyxiation and arrhythmia, but some amphibians can actually survive the deep freeze. Alligators, for example, can survive a fairly long period of hibernation freezing, in which they do not need to consume food or breathe oxygen. Although they cannot do this for more than a few days, it’s still crazy to think of an alligator coming back to life after being frozen into an ice block for a week.
