Antarctic fishes live in some of the coldest waters in on the planet, temperatures at which most fishes would freeze and become fish-'sicles.'' They, Antarctic fish, have developed a unique set of adaptations which lower the freezing point of their blood including a higher salt concentration and an antifreeze protein. In this text, the mechanism of the higher salt concentration is described, and it alludes to the evolution of this property due to environmental pressure.
