00:03Animals can be pretty amazing, and evolution has given some of them extremely cool abilities that let them survive in
00:09extremely wild situations.
00:11The Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology reports 60% of Alaskan wood frogs let their bodies freeze solid every
00:18winter.
00:19They do this by building up massive amounts of glucose in their organs, a protectant against the formation of ice
00:24crystals that would otherwise damage their cells.
00:26Similar to the protein found in the blood of notothenioid fish, which binds to ice crystals that try to form
00:32while a fish inhabits waters that sit around 28 degrees.
00:35Meanwhile, those frogs' cousins, the cyclorona australis frog, create mucus cocoons to wait out particularly hot and dry periods.
00:43Then you have the okapi.
00:44Perhaps Congo's strangest looking creature, their feet also have glands that spread a musky substance to mark their territory.
00:50Still, one of the more impressive abilities visually must be the cuttlefish.
00:54Their camouflaging skills allow them to not only change their color to blend in with their surroundings, but they can
00:59also change the texture of their bodies as well.
01:01Cuttlefish have an estimated 10 million chromatophores, or tiny pigmented skin cells each controlled separately, allowing them to take on
01:08the guise of just about any underwater structure.
01:11Move to the ?
01:16It's impossible because we can delete the main Barbie potion.
