If anyone puts a slider or painted turtle in the freezer to hibernate it it will freeze to death (and that is a painful death too). I know painted turtle eggs and hatchling under ground manage to survive a freeze but that would not apply to taking them and putting them in the freezer.

People may hibernate certain turtles in the refrigerator but NOT the freezer.

Just wanted to clear that up in case anyone thought they would like to try this out. All you would end up with is a DEAD turtle.
