Whether animals can predict earthquakes or sense earthquakes in advance has been a hot topic for a long time.
According to quora netizen Mojo Rose's description, she has a pet python at home. The python will show some weird behaviors before every earthquake.
The most obvious of these is to stand up with the entire body standing up, with the tail as little as possible on the floor, and then stay in this position all day and night until the earthquake occurs and is over.
Because Mojo Rose lives on the West Coast of the United States, which is one of the most earthquake-prone places in the world, the snake has exhibited this behavior a total of 20 times in the past 8 years, each time on the day before and on the day of the earthquake. .
When the latest incident occurred, the snake had grown to nearly 8 meters long. It was not easy for it to stand upright, but it still maintained this position throughout the day.
The senses of animals are somewhat different from ours. They may actually sense some changes that existed before the earthquake, so they behave abnormally.
At present, birds are the most obvious at sensing earthquakes, and fish, insects, and reptiles have also been found to behave abnormally before earthquakes.
But it should also be mentioned here that abnormal behaviors exhibited by animals cannot accurately predict earthquakes every time.
