A lot of insects can be frozen and thawed to survival, frogs too I think! I don't suggest anybody try it though, I don't know the specifics. The blue gel is not only their home, but as they tunnel they're eating it to get the proper nutrients, it's a nice self contained environment:) The ants are pretty cool, that when they die they will move the bodies away from the colony. Without a queen, I don't think they reproduce either. I'm not sure about all of it though, I haven't had an antfarm since I was little.

questions over questions...
fantastic thing, though!
In one of the old CKY (Bam Margera's pre-Jackass days, not the band) vids they froze a bumble bee.... tied thread around it and waited for it to thaw. Bee on a string.

These guys survive total freezing each winter.
And I had an ant farm in my kitchen cupboard last night.
Apparently a Toblerone I bought had a slight rip in the foil...
Oh well, I had no other use for that C4 anyway...

You should stop with this experimental things, you know, your trans dimensional cats and now that C4 "bomb the ants away thing".
I must protest because your "animal-insects" test center is going way too far.
