In deed.. It kindof explains to me why my H. arboreas didnīt froze to death when the temperature all of a sudden dropped to - 6 degrees C, in mid-April.

Great video Peter, also recorded in some of the North American wood turtles.
Some great research on this whole area of cryobiology was conducted at the University of Notre Dame, if anyones interested I could see if I could dig up some of the papers?
Certainly fascinating
