Don't let this distract you from the fact that ice cold is cooler than being cool

I have a lot of turtles and frogs on our land and always wondered how they survive -30° temperatures, thank you for explaining this!

[kaycampbell]

I didn't know this was possible and find it quite fascinating. They look beautiful under the ice. Thanks for sharing this!

Thank you for explaining the oxygen needs. I had no idea they be could completely submerged and still get oxygen to survive. Crazy.

NJ here as well. Glad I stumbled upon this channel. I have seen snapping turtles swimming under the ice at the celery farms here in Bergen Co. Was a nice surprise to see in the middle of the winter.

Your knowledge in reptile is incredible

This was very informative. I follow a channel called TheFishWhisperer and lately his turtles in his pond have been brumating, but every once in a while 1 or 2 come to the surface to get fed.
