Most insects from cold regions can endure freezing temperatures. The coldest recorded insect is down to -60C. That's right negative 60. This was characterized in 3 larva. What the specific name it is. I didn't feel like going to the library for somebody on Wiki. But if you feel like looking it up here is the info and abstract.
Cold-hardiness strategies of some adult and immature insects overwintering in interior Alaska.

A variety of adult and immature insects, most of which occupy highly exposed habitats, successfully overwinter in interior Alaska. A number of adult beetles are feezing-tolerant. All exhibit relatively high supercooling points and synthesize large quantities of polyhydric alcohols in response to cold. At least four other orders are represented by adult insects that tolerate freezing, but in contrast to adult beetles, all exhibit relatively low supercooling points associated with the build-up of glycerol. At least three species of larvae that overwinter in galls undergo a remarkable increase in supercooling capability (to ca. -- 60 degree C) associated with synthesis of large quantities of glycerol in winter. None of the larvae tested could survive freezing in spite of their high glycerol levels.
It depends on what you mean by "survive." Insects are cold-blooded, so their activity level increases and decreases with the temperature. There is a certain temperature at which normal activity stops. However, many insects are cold-tolerant and can remain alive at very low temperatures, even though they cannot move normally.
I think the arctic is too cold for insects to live there. Then again, fleas could probably live on polar bears.

They are smart enough to survive the coldest temperatures in the entire earth, and smart enough to survive all kinds of natural dangers that surround them.
the coldest temperature to survive is -78the coldest temperature to survive is -78
_ 20 (minus 20 ) is how cold it has to be for a cow to freeze to death
Sloths need leaves and water to survive. They need to be in a very warm climate to survive because there body temperatures are very low.

The coldest temperature an ant can survive is said to be as low as -94 degrees Fahrenheit/-70 degrees Celsius. If exposed to freezing temperatures for long enough, an ant will die.
Yes, some species of cactus can survive quite far north and are able to tolerate all but the coldest of temperatures.

-119 is the coldest of the temperatures listed.

Uranus and Neptune have the coldest surface temperatures. Their average temperatures are very similar at about minus 200 to minus 220 degrees Celsius.

Penguins live in Antarctica, the coldest place in the world. They can survive in temperatures of -129 degrees Fahrenheit.
