Abstract
IT is not uncommon for small fish to be frozen to ice in shallow water. In 1838 I put some of these frozen fish into tepid water, and they recovered. In 1852, in one part of the lake at Highfield House, there must have been hundreds frozen to the ice, but when it melted scarcely any dead fish were seen: they had either recovered or had been devoured by pike. In 1860 a number of gold-fish were hard frozen, but recovered in warm water.
