RE: Can Animals Predict Natural Disasters?

in #science7 years ago

This article is liked to my life, in 2002 I was in India (Bhuj) Kutch that day somehow I did not go to school , neither did my elder sister go to college. But that day suddenly the bed and the room started to shake and I and my sister got up and got under the bed snatching my arm to save me from the earthquake. It was so dreadful that even now if I think about it I can picture the trauma happening outside my house. There was lot of panic and many dogs were barking before this tragic earthquake took place in (Kutch) in Gujarat. My mom figured out some how that animals do have sixth sense, they come to know about the tragic massacre going to take place. After the earth quake was hit at 7.7 magnitude of ricter scale, people were injured, countless people were dead on the streets. I was only 8 years old, I was so terrified that I could not talk to anyone, I was very scared to even leave the house to meet up with my friends. I still remember that helicopters used to arrive with food to help people survive the trauma. The best food I had was Hide and Seek biscuit, which was the food which kept me smiling and helped me keep up my hopes up that the next morning will be fine. I kept praying to god to save my family and friends from such kind of disaster.

Sorry to hear this. My experience is very similar to you and I can totally relate. Disasters like these leave people traumatised for life and take many lives with them. That's why it's important that we really use all our efforts to finding ways to predict them as much as possible. Take care brother!!

Very touching incident @shasol. Glad you all were safe! Hopefully, new technology will give enough warning for people to be safe.
