Ive herd reports on veriouse web sites about animals being found sealed in stone or wood with no holes or means to get in or out. Dozens of stories from people breaking rocks and finding lizards and frogs still alive deep inside the stone with no holes going in to the stone just a small space where the animal rests inside. I was wondering if anyone eles has herd of these or had an experiance with them.

Do you have the links?
Raptor
Here's a link. I remember hearing about this a long time ago, I don't know enough to tell if it's true or not.

The fact that one group claims they found a live pteradactyl doesn't do much to help its credibility, though.
frogfish
Some species of frogs, like the tomato frog, make cocoons out of mud to surround them during droughts. These cocoons are found under ground, and the mud is dried up. Crack it open to find a live frog...

Cerbero
yeah, lots of species somehow "hibernate" (??) , if a bear (hot blooded animal) can, a frog would asw ell easily
frogfish
Many species of frog hibernate underground, along with a couple other odd amphibians (caecellians). Lungfish also go dormant underground in a mud shell when their pools dry up.
