Question
Do animals get foreknowledge of the tsunami coming ?
✓

Answer

Yes, it is true that animals sense the coming disaster earlier than human beings. It became evident in $2004.$ The tsunami killed more than $1,50.000$ people in a dozen countries. But very few animals were reported dead. Buffaloes, goats and dogs remained unharmed. So did elephants and leopards. They ran away to higher places to save their lives.
