Title: I'm NOT an animal hater
Post by: Dervacumen on January 21, 2006, 07:32:43 am: Funniest thing I've read in a while. :P

From the most commonly heald myths website:

"Animals can predict natural disasters"

There is no evidence that animals possess a mysterious sixth-sense allowing them to predict natural disasters. Their keen senses of smell, hearing, and sharp instincts alone are enough to send them scattering for the hillsides during a hurricane or tsunami. And even so, animals often die during natural disasters, so if they do have some sort of sixth sense, it's not worth much.[Emphasis added]

Perhaps only the animals that do not have this sixth sense die in natural disasters.
