I am not entirely sure but there maybe some truth to the suggestion that animals can sense earth quakes in advance - https://goo.gl/j4sLFw https://goo.gl/j4sLF

It would work by having some sort of Fitbit accessory for our pets which would collect and share their electrical signals via an app. Machine learning could then correlate these signals with actual earthquake activity and learn how to predict quakes (or if we would be able to predict them). Maybe just in time before the next big one hits the Bay Area :-) .

Scientists are working on testing this claim in central Italy, where a destructive earthquake struck last year and lots of minor seismic activity is still present. The article is pretty informative, I just like to report here the closing remark from the Principal Investigator: "It’s a huge claim, so we’d better have good proof for it". https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/17/world/europe/italy-earthquakes-animals-predicting-natural-disasters.html?mcubz=0 https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/17/world/europe/italy-earthq...
