Humans are not the only ones to have issues with cold metal. Couple of years ago there was an article about a bobcat frozen to a railroad track in Canada that occurred when it was eating a duck it had caught.
Growing up in the Great White North, we got the lecture about not licking or even touching metal objects when it was well below zero (F). Occasionally, some kid would try it anyway, but most of us got the idea when we grabbed cold metal with wet mittens on the playground, and the mittens stayed attached to the metal when we tried to pull away.
The “lecture” that really got through was when I was in third or fourth grade, and there had been some awful incident with a kid losing toes due to frostbite, so the principal called an assembly and showed us an army training film about frostbite. Talk about being scared straight! We were talking about that film for days…
