From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Lovelock

"In the mid-1950s, Lovelock experimented with the cryopreservation of rodents, determining that hamsters could be frozen and revived successfully.[14] Hamsters were frozen with 60% of the water in the brain crystallised into ice with no adverse effects recorded. Other organs were shown to be susceptible to damage.[15]"

And there's a Tom Scott's interview with James Lovelock:
