Antarctic explorer, who died during the Terra Nova Expedition. Oates, afflicted with gangrene and frostbite, walked from his tent into a blizzard.<\/p>\n<h3>Frank Oates (1840 \u2013 1875)<\/h3>\n<p>Frank Oates, uncle of Captain Lawrence Oates, is the third of the explorers of the natural world commemorated at Selborne. Frank Oates\u00a0was a British\u00a0naturalist and\u00a0explorer.
