RE: This frog is amazing!!I cant believe this kind of frog also exists!!

in #science7 years ago

Unfortunately while the fact is true, the image isn't. This is a cute photo but it is of a different frog.

See: http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/frozenfrog.asp

What's false? The photograph used to advance the claim is actually of a different species of frog.

What's True? A species of frog in Alaska can survive for weeks with up to two-thirds of their body water completely frozen.

The viral photograph displayed above does not show an Alaskan tree frog (since no such animal exists), nor does it show a wood frog. This widely-circulated image appears to be simply a garden ornament that has been covered with frost. The video below shows what an actual wood frog looks like as it freezes and thaws during the winter.

That is the value in research Fahim. :)
