The water temperature must have been hanging right on the edge in order to freeze quick enough to prevent the fish from getting away.
I wonder if it froze below them, as well as above them, trapping them in between until it all froze?

That is seriously weird. I bet dogs like it though.

The sad thing is - see the leash? The dog's owner is holding the end of it... under the ice.

It's pre-seasoned so all you need is a few onions and a bucket of milk for Cream of Herring Soup.

There's a frog that can involuntarily increase the glucose level in its blood when temperatures go down, which lowers its freezing point. You can literally freeze the frog rock-hard in the freezer, then thaw it out and watch it come back to life.
Edit: Well, the original thing I saw about the frog said it was the glucose thing. This other video says it just pulls the water out of its organs so it doesn't expand inside and burst them. |

I think it happens a lot, but out in the boondocks where nobody sees it.

Wow, that fox pic depresses the hell outta me. Think of how he/she must've suffered before finally succumbing.
