Scientists have found a hibernating fish in Antarctic

The scientists have found a fish that hibernates in the Antarctic during the long winters.

This fish, cod Notothenia coriiceps, gains energy during the short summer season and hibernates during the cold season or enters in a sleep kind of state. This fish even has antifreeze chemicals not to freeze from the cold when it hibernates.
