    Freaking amazing. They actually freeze. I wonder if any frog lovers let there frogs go to sleep in the cold. I heard that it adds life to frogs. Especially if you want to breed them.

    I know isn't it! They actually freeze solid...they have a chemical in their blood that kind of acts like antifreeze. There's a whole process to their hibernation, but in a nut shell, this chemical protects their vital organs and allows them to safely freeze and survive the cold.They are amazing frogs and that's why I love them !!

    I actually own 5 Wood frogs, but I've never let them hibernate and then again I haven't tried to breed them yet. I am considering, in the near future, to try and let one hibernate....as I believe its never been done before for this species.

    Here is a pic of a frozen Wood frog:
