Woaah so it's real. The frozen wood frogs from Avatar the Legend of Aang. Must taste bitter tho.

[AzlianaLyana]

Useful skill. Any other animals that shuts down and freezes like this in the winter?

[kiranehrbeck-malhotra]

Who else immediately thought of Avatar the Last Airbender 😊 seriously, that show is one of the best ever thanks to the many little details such as this.

[BattingBlueyes]

That's awesome. Could you imagine if we as humans could do that...🤯

How long did it take to shoot all this?

What happened to a frog if it came out from it's hibernation in mild of winter season

[BuildingCenter]

For some reason, I thought skeeters bit only birds and mammals.



Maybe I was protecting myself from imagining amphibian and reptile viruses going zoonotic (that's the word, right?)...

So he dies a little inside like that song

[kimberlylopez]

I wanted to slap those mosquitoes. Lol

Thanks NG, spouse was unaware of this and you delivered the goods to show her.

Just went into the garden, sunny day, thought I’d mow the grass. I have a bird pond that has been full of water all winter in the middle of the grass, I tip it out, there’s a frog at the bottom. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I thought it was dead until I remembered something about them hibernating in the winter.

I think I may need to leave cutting the grass a bit longer?

Even frogs despise them mosquitoes LOL. They are despised wherever they go, except when they are the delicacy.

In Repulic Alaska Mosquitoes eats Frogs.
