I guess they let him out because he would be too hard to chop up with chainsaws for the freezer if they let him freeze solid ...

I was reading some of the "winter counts" the Smithsonian has collected. Various tribes or bands of American Indians would designated one person to keep a historical record of the group by drawing a picture of the most significant thing that happened during the previous "winter". They defined a "winter" as first snow to first snow, so each "winter" was roughly a year.

Anyway, one band recorded 500 bison had fallen through the ice and become frozen in the lake. Whenever anyone needed meat, they just strolled out on the frozen lake and hacked off a piece of bison. Ate well that "winter".
