^Yep, stand corrected, but meant -273.16 C. actually, for of course absolute zero and cessation of molecular activity.

We also froze critters, including rattlers, with liquid nitrogen, but them in bell jars, evacuated the air and moisture as they thawed, and had good taxidermy specimens! (my brother, aeronautical engineer and “rocket scientist”reported they regularly froze critters when fueling missiles at several test sites.)
