On this page I write chronologically summaries of scientific beginnings and analyses to abnormal animal behaviour, reader letters and articles , which I wrote in the time period of approx. two years (in excerpts), the youngest is at the beginning. Here are also appropriate references to literature and Internet addresses.

Already possible seaquake alert at good wetter conditions today:

With help of remote data it is possible to recognize at low waves and no clouds big fish sworms in the sea at the sea surface.

It is already known, that 3-4 days before a big seaquake occurs, many and big fishsworms unusually are in this area - therefore this could be in the case of good weather better than the very expensive new tusnamie alert system, because this only works after the event of the seaquake. But it is surely only possible for bigger areas if a software is one day able to make good interpretations of the satelittle data by its own.

Research component:

Does there exist a correlation between increasing power of EM-waves for earthquakes and the amount of the quarz in the deeper rock layers? Does this explain the higher level for EM-waves, which Prof. Ikeya found out in many laboratory trials for the unusal animal behaviour - that the geophysic measured only little increase of EM-waves, because they did it in areas of not so high amount of quarz? For to examine it, we should take perhaps 30 events of earthquakes, where we have enough satellite data for it. Than we make estimation of the quarz amount of the rocks until the depth of the epicenter with help of geological data. Now we can create a three dimensional model in dependence of the magnitude and look, if there is exist a correlation . For example it could be possible to find out, that from the magnitude 5 and higher there is a correlation between the quarz amount and the increasing EM-waves, and perhaps it is possible to make a prediction in dependence of the power of the EM-waves to the magnitude of the earthquake.

Research component:

Can animals remark and react to signals, which could appear as forerunner warning symptom before earthquakes, by the many attractions through large city? A current article of Professor Dr. Tributsch in China makes me thoughtful - it is truth, that animals in large cities reacts also before earthquakes - but how can they still remark out from this huge amount of smells, lights, noises and electromagnetic waves, which appears if necessary before earthquakes as forerunner warning symptom?

Possible attempt whether the animals could react to the parameters in a big city or at least to certain extent: Appropriate parameters would have such as infra-, ultrasonicsound, electromagnetic waves of certain length/frequency, in or with a large city too firmly defined times to be sent, and observation posts with experimental animals in different distances and directions to be positioned. Research beginnings about abnormal animal behavior before earthquakes;

Under the following superordinate points the research beginnings can be seized together, surely it is only an overview and the trials had to work out more:

1. Does (determined) animals react to certain parameters, how EM-waves, UV light, infra-red light, vibration, ozone content among other things?

2. Does (determined) animals react to a combination of parameters with lower limit value opposite to an individual parameter ?

3. Does animals react to abnormal animal behavior of other animals?

4. Does animals from seismic zones react equally as the same animal species from earthquake-free regions?

To point 1:

There are detailed investigations of IKEYA to EM-waves, but the limit values for releasing the behavior, found there, are too high in relation to the measured values of the geophycisists before earthquakes.

This gives cause for point to 2.

UV light would be very interesting in view to available investigations of biologists in relation to different plumage examination with different UV light spectra and makes sense in view to light changes before earthquakes (see section of IKEYA). Only ozone cannot be the reason for the animal behavior - after TRIBUTSCH, even if dogs can smell still more sensitively, than still a few years ago accepted, since ozone occurs also e.g. in underground pits, and here at all does not affect the dogs.

It could be however under point 2 as combination parameters straight with EM-waves of interest. Vibration was so far always excluded, because the highly soluble geophysical measuring instruments did not measure changed/increased vibrations before earthquakes. By a recent television contribution it can be assumed however that there are smallest vibrations below the dissolution of today's measuring instruments, which could still feel elephants. Whether these arise also before earthquakes, is thus unexplored and cannot also be proven. Infra-red light was already proven before earthquakes on satellite date, and could be taken up in connection with UV light investigations with. (Beetles have special infrared sensitive sensory organs, snakes are able to see within the infrared range)

To point 2:

s already described 1 in point, a combination of two or several parameters could set the limitvalue for an abnormal animal behavior down, or alarm also at all only the combination of these parameters the animals, and the individual parameters are uninteresting for the animals. Thus humans decide e.g. daily very often fast and unconsciously from a large tide of optical and acoustic information in the traffic, which combination of information is important or even threatening are. As that carries our brain out, partially also a mystery is and can by no intelligent robot be copied. Thereby smallest information can be which set the brain only in combination in alert stand-by. In this connection the two following points are to be also seen and understood.

To point 3:

Are individuals or certain kinds of animals infected simply only by panic behavior of other animals, and don't react not independently to possible earthquake forerunner symptoms? Is there a kind sticking on mass panic under animals? Against to hold would be quotations of TRIBUTSCH, according to which wild animals before earthquakes become sudden fearless; this would underline the theories preferred by him that parameter affects like electrically charged particles the hormone household of each individual animal. But if in a German zoo, as occurred, before an earthquake all animals cried, this looks like mass panic. TRIBUTSCH set up the thesis that charged little particles in the air - aerosol - affects the hormone household of the animals accordingly. IKEYA examined five different hormones in their dependence by means of the animal medical profession for positive and negative charged parts and electromagnetic waves and the proximity to a rock, which is set under tension, and examined correlations between hormones and this four parameters. It shows up that only during electromagnetic waves and rock tension stress hormones are strengthened set free, but not, as they are usual for survival reactions, but which are with normal fearfulness. Otherwise no clear relations can be found, but even honour a little decrease of hormones.

To point 4:

Is the abnormal animal behavior to be understood by the evolution through as learned animal behavior, or reacts each animal individual to possibly by point 1 and point of 2 found parameters and limit values equally, independently of its origin? Supplementing I would like to notice the following: The research should have to the distant goal to release with the help of animal behavior the evacuation of a town with millions of inhabitants punctual from this research either won parameters, or clear animal behavior, which under observation can be rated as warning signal. Because one week time is needed for this evacuation, all research of the middle and larger mammals is to be understood only as a component in this research, because they react too late after population observations.

From interest are more the insects, perhaps still little mammals - as described and explained by IKEYA with of resonance of the EM-waves in the cells. From hold personally most important first aim of research I think about investigations of UV light spectrum change on bird behavior. Birds react often also with panic before earthquakes, to which they have no reason due to their flight characteristic actually. Perhaps they can see partially however within the UV light range much and a changed landscape under UV light will release panic in such a way. UV light changes seem to be also after population observations in view on earthquake lights and the theories and explanations with IKEYA very probably before earthquakes actually changed present, so that here both sides could some together; Biology and geophysics probably could come fast on a common point, where they become finally times united. UV light can be also located by means of special satellite sensors and be pulled in such a way in the distant future with successful for the near earthquake prognosis. Here the research makes sense thus in each regard. Perhaps we should make investigations which combined parameters - EV-waves and UV-light. There is actually a new satellite outside to detect radio waves for to make investigations about a correlation to geophysical events.

Possible scientific incorrect conclusions with the research topic animal behavior before earthquakes:

1. Fact:

It is reported by wild animals, which moved before earthquakes without any fear into the villages and rats, which one could catch with bare hands.

Wrong conclusion:

In principle wild animals before earthquakes become fearless, and a phenomenon is appropriate for the behavior as a reason, which is a early warning character of earthquakes, e.g. negatively charged aerosols.

Possible reality:

Only over locally limited areas within a seismic zone, this behavior was observed. Possibly by the constantly increasing rock pressure a gas line became locally leaky and has these animals a little bit anaesthetized; the leaking out gas is however no earthquake forerunner symptom actually.

2. Fact:

The animals in the attempts of Professor Ikeya showed a remarkable behavior, which seems to be of reported abnormal animal behavior before earthquakes very similar or the same, with certain firmly defined limit values of EM-waves and electrical fields.

Wrong conclusion:

Here in the laboratory artificially the earthquake forerunner parameter was thus simulated and the limit value of the respective animal species in relation to this parameter, which can be used now in the future for earthquake forecasts.

Possible reality:

Further conditions were decisive in the laboratory for the behavior, which do not cover themselves with those in nature. So could e.g. serve the presence of dust particles as condensation germs for aerosols, and these are affected in such a manner by the EM-waves that these aerosols release only the animal behavior. If one would have sent air before by a dust collector, perhaps different limit values or none would have come out.

Or:

The presence like the gas ozone, which was often determined or smelled before earthquakes, decreases or strengthens the limit of sensation of the animals in relation to the EM-waves.

Or:

Due to the low individual number of the test animals only individual limit values were determined, which can not generally be transferred however to all animals and perhaps the animals in the nature of the seismic zones substantially differ.

3. Fact:

It is reported both - animal behavior before earthquakes, also earthquakes which came without any warning by animals.

Wrong conclusion:

Animals are unreliably and times one react them and times one not. There is no forerunner parameter, on which they react, because otherwise would react the at all earthquakes with equally behavior. It is only coincidence whether the animals show remarkable behavior or not.

Possible reality:

The animal behavior is not only determined by earthquake forerunner parameters, but additionally into which seasonal cycle they are at the moment of the quake; where its hormone household straight stands, and/or whether they are busy by new generation straight with e.g. the raising or not.

Or:

The climate regionally has a crucial influence, whether e.g. by strong hoist ozone does not affect sufficient the animals with, or missing condensation germs for an aerosol formation not accordingly is able to release the behavior.

Have animals a sixt´th sense, with them they can notice natural catastrophes timely and bring themselves in safety?

This question will have many people asked themselves after the media reports over the south asia quake - no dead animal was found there. If they are searching more in the media about this phenomena, they will get the impression, that this animal behavior, which is known since thousands of years, is still unsolved, not researched and in parts not true.

There exist allready the classic book from Helmut Tributsch from the year 1978("When the Snakes Awake") and now another one from a japanese physicprofessor: Motoji Ikeya, Earthquakes and Animals, From Folk Legends to Science, World Scientific 2004. The professor, who allready get prizes for science, is a fellow in the german Alexander von Humbodls Foundation at the University of Stutgart, Germany. He startes is research about animal behavior for earthquakes after his own watching befor the Kobe earthquake in the year 1995. His book is rich and well pictured and also valuable for interested amateurs.

Allready in the preface it becomes clear, that the most difficult fight was the fight against prejudices. And this research is interdisziplinary, and a single researcher or only one research subject is overtaxed from it without hope. And therefore the very experienced professor has not the demand of having done perfect research, but want to activate the people by articulate critic and make further more research - to every interested reader. Professor Ikeya trie to bring more clearness in the different mysterios earthquakes percursor phenomenas.

He made many laboratory experiments, whith them he can reproduce and explains the most or all phenomenas. He could even explain the report of a turkish fisherman, who had been with his boat on sea during a heavy earthquake - and then his boat suddenly layed on the sea floor and he saw two water walls besides him - called "Moses Phenomen" and calcualte examples, sketches and photos of models underlign his research results. But the main point of the book is the research of electrical fields, electromagnetic waves and impulses and their effect on animal behavior, plant growth and behavior and atmosphere.

By that he has success in nearly or all cases to reproduce artifically in the laboratory all unusal behavior from animals - from the littlest insect to big mammals, and to find an explanation for it - with the help of animal medicin research over stress behavior. First on the last pages of the fist half of the book beolonging to animal behavior, the reader must read, that unfortunaley, the geophsicsts did not measured this needed force/frequence of electromagnetic waves in the nature before earthquakes.

But the research is surely a big step further, for to make further more serios research - if the science will finally win the fight against prejustice -and when the scientist are able to report public from measurement mistakes, fallacies and unexplained things, without to loose their image - thereby an interdisziplinary research is possible or finally could start. Who of the readers is already able to imagine, that a candle flame can burn in a bow before an earthquake? But this phenomen was watched and Prof. Ikeya was able to reproduce it in the laboratory and find an explanation for it. Only because one is not able to imagine something and to find an explanation for it, is it inspite really existing and explainable. This experience is also be done for dark and ugly noises for an earthquake - normally it is not possible, that sound waves are faster than seismic waves. But it was observed from japanes students. Because of they had no explantions for this, this phenoma was not allowed in earlier times to make public. But - thanks to Prof. Ikeyas research and book - there is now an explanation for it. For to come now back to the asia quake - in which way could his research do something for the early warning? To this in his book are standing several pages about a research over fish capture several days before a big earhquake near coasts.

There is still a scientific hope, that at least it could be possible to be on the alert if certain kinds and amouts of fishes are found on the market. But Prof. Ikeya has self the opinion, that it will never be possible to make a complete earthquake prediction only with the help of animals.

The results from the animal behavior for earthquake research had to complete and correlate with measurements and further more data. We can be curious for the future, if after so many centuries of earthquake research with so few practical results for the earthquake prediction, if now at least the prediction research will make the long hoped progress.

- My research beginnings for further clarifying of the abnormal animal behavior before earthquakes: To this topic there are already various studies and even meanwhile two books of scientists.My further aspects, which I would bring gladly into this research, in order a final clarifying over all causes, connections and with it connected future use for the earthquake forecast to possibly transact, are based on the already existing research, general study from books of biology and from it resulting own question positions:

· In the current classical author of Professor Ikeya ("Earthquakes and Animals, World Scientific 2004") become electromagnetic waves, which are radiated before the earthquake by the piezoelectric effect from the earth to the environment, when a cause for all animal phenomena, for meteorological phenomena, changes in the plant world and disturbances of electrical functions, reproduces like e.g. television pictures and Handybetrieb accepted, and in lab tests artificially.

As only problem it proves with the fact that the measured electromagnetic waves necessary for the release of animal holding back NSA normalities were not measured so far by the geophycisists in this strength/frequency before earthquakes. My beginning would be to be clarified by means of attempts whether perhaps due to the frequently reported ozone smells before earthquakes it can be that by an increase of ozone the threshold of sensation is decreased in relation to EM-waves.

· Due to my angelesenen and observed animal knowledge I would find it very interesting to clarify by appropriate attitude studies whether the abnormal animal behavior before earthquakes arises only with animals, which live in areas, where there are also earthquakes and a learned behavior are, or whether animals, which knew earthquakes not know and never react accurately exactly the same.

· Only few weeks ago I found an article coincidentally in a newspaper over newest realizations of the structure over the plumage of birds and their different function under UV light. It was shown that the birds can to see plumage examinations, which are not to be seen in the UV range of vision of their enemies depending upon kind on different subranges of the UV light spectrum and, show in their range of vision. Since by bluish earthquake lights before earthquakes from the population it was reported again and again and Professor Ikeya could reproduce and explain these by means of EM-waves in the laboratory, considered I it probably that in the UV light spectrum, which follows directly the blue-violet spectrum of the visible light for us a change is present, those by the birds simple and simple is seen - on the one hand they see themselves their environment changed, possibly on the other hand - thereby could then the panic of the birds problem-free be explained, and surely or other animal will react to this bird behavior.

· There this research as a goal primarily would have of making an early warning possible from earthquakes to and arranged a evacuation of a town with millions of inhabitants one week time required, I would suggest of being able to draw the behavior of the insects, which showed reactions days before up to 10 to examine best in order from it hopefully a daily usable back shots.

· Not only EM-waves, but also acoustic with the piezoelectric effect, develop for sound Professor Ikeya which explain often reported earth trembling close roles. To clarify it would be whether there are before already also in the Ultra and Infraschallbereich days or hours such effects, with which further behavior can be explained.

In more detail:

My research beginnings for a further clarifying of the abnormal animal behavior before earthquakes, based on the current conditions of the research: To this topic there are already various studies and even meanwhile two books of scientists. My further aspects, which I would bring gladly into this research, in order at a final clarifying all causes, connections and with it connected future use for the earthquake forecast to possibly arrive, are based on the already existing research, the study of books of biology and from it resulting own questions:

· In the book by Professor Ikeya ("Earthquakes and Animals", World Scientific, 2004), published recently, become electromagnetic waves, which are radiated before the earthquake by the piezoelectric effect from the earth to the environment, when a cause for all animal phenomena, for meteorological phenomena, changes in the plant world and disturbances of electrical functions, reproduces like e.g. television pictures and Handybetrieb accepted, and in lab tests artificially. As only problem it proves with the fact that the electromagnetic waves necessary for the release of animal holding back NSA normalities were not measured so far by the geophycisists in this strength/frequency before earthquakes.

My beginning would be to clarify by means of attempts whether perhaps in view to the frequently reported ozone smells before earthquakes it could apply that by an increase of the ozone value the threshold of sensation is decreased in relation to EM-waves. Proves to be true this, could one all results of research of Professor Ikeya with consideration that the lab tests again-reflect no 100%ige nature situation, at least as an approximation and with hopefully more acknowledgment for its research and this topic altogether for the earthquake forecast regard and use. If my attempt beginning should prove as unsuitable to justify the existing contradiction between the strength of the measured EM-waves in nature and the laboratory threshold values must be searched for further explanation possibilities and the proofs. Thus the possibility of actual measuring errors in nature, and/or local deviations of the measured values would e.g. come in relation to the threshold values into question.

· Due to my realizations acquired from specialized technical and the observation of animals I would find it important to clarify by appropriate attitude studies whether the abnormal animal behavior before earthquakes seems only with animals, which live in areas, in which earthquakes arises, or whether accurately exactly the same reacts to animal, which did not experience earthquakes ever. In relation to earlier understandings over animals one today nevertheless generally knows that many animals are "more intelligent" and communicate among themselves very many more, and behaviors over many generations only left but also to be taught.

· Recently an article appeared over new realizations concerning the structure of the plumage of birds and its different function under UV light in the Hannover general newspaper (07.05.2005). It was shown that certain birds can to see plumage examinations, which are to be seen in the UV range of vision of their kind comrades, however not in that of their enemies depending upon kind on different subranges of the UV light spectrum and, exhibit in this range of vision. Since from the population by bluish earthquake lights before earthquakes it was reported again and again and Professor Ikeya could reproduce and explain these by means of EM-waves in the laboratory, held I it for probable that in the UV light spectrum, which follows directly the blue-violet spectrum of the visible light for us a change occurs.

This is seen by the birds - on the one hand they see themselves their environment changed, on the other hand - thereby could then the panic of the birds problem-free be explained, and surely or other animal will also react to this bird behavior. One could possibly consult and in connection bring already existing data from meteorology and remote sensing for the examination of this hypothesis, in addition, accomplish new, first measurements of the flash spectra in areas with more frequent moderately severe earthquakes. At the same time the animal behavior should be examined with most different flash spectra in lab tests.

In this connection I would like to stress that this is probably only one the trip for the animal behavior and reacts depending upon their kind the animals to different parameters before the earthquake. It is an error, which Tributsch, Ikeya and others of my judgement made that they looked for the same behavior explanation for all animals due to the same releasing parameter, which a wrong basic assumption can be very easy, and thus a 100%igen research success in the way.

Nature is complicated, the animals has the most different sense achievements, and there are different changes of parameter, which were actually measured before earthquakes - accordingly differently also the respective animal behavior could be. And in cases, in which no animal behavior was announced, this can actually have been also because of the earthquake - if the rock in this area is e.g. very basic, could not not arise the piezolelektrische effect, if at all this causes the EM-waves. Fact and in lab tests proven nevertheless is that granite blocks under increasing pressure send EM-waves.

· There this research primarily to the goal would have of supporting an early warning before earthquakes and an arranged evacuation of a town with millions of inhabitants here one week time required, I would suggest of examining the behavior of the insects, which show days before according to the attempts and reports in the book by Professor Ikeya reactions up to 10, likewise comprehensively in order to be able to draw from it hopefully a daily usable conclusions.

· Not only EM-waves, but also acoustic waves from the piezoelectric effect, which explain often reported earth trembling close roles, result to sound Professor Ikeya. To examine it would be whether there are before already also in the Ultra and Infraschallbereich days or hours such effects, with which further behaviors could be explained. Fact is that many animals react to ultrasonic and/or Infraschall, and e.g. many migratory birds by Infraschall orient themselves.

According to an article in the "mirror" number 17, 2005, S. 163ff are present very interesting measurements and data over Infraschall, and breaking of the sea-soil with the Tsunamiekatastrophe became for the first time visible over Infraschallmessungen. Here those of military have extensive data, which were made unfortunately not yet accessible for the scientists. Perhaps are also appropriate data over flash spectra present, which can likewise be quite relevant for the research of forerunner phenomena?

Earthquake film cable 1 to 4.08.2005 around 23:13 to 0:11 summary of most important contents: ( I still need to make the complete translation sorry)

In California there is a group of earthquake-sensitive humans, who meet and celebrate once a year. A woman participates, who places their earthquake prognoses world-wide on-line felt at their body also in the Internet and as can be prove a hit rate of 83% has. In the 70's it was stated by coincidental observation of a Geysirs that the Geysire two hours long was missing, when in approx. 160 km distance was a moderately severe earthquake now becomes the Geysire for 20 years day and night by video observed and before the large Loma Prieta earthquake has he twice as frequently appeared clear connections between changed occurrence of the Geysires and earthquake in 200 km Unkreis are to be observed, however so far an explanation is missing. Other scientists measure for decades very deep EM-waves to be heard with the radio not to receive are and not for human ears. They research under the aspect of communication with submarines and it go to waves into the earth purely, also the earth sends which. They noticed and at present four weeks before the Loma Prieta earthquake a sudden excursion of the otherwise usual signals the quake a "chaos" at signals. In China for 20 years on Grundwässern the radon contents are based, which to there scientists as important indicator applies to earthquakes. A daily began the radon contents drastically to rise and the scientists for an area in Burma to direct alarm finally gave and evacuated - actually already came quake on the next day - two moderately severe. Prominent earthquake scientists from Japan/Tokyo, where world-wide at most at earthquakes it is researched hold this accurate forecast for a fluke and criticize that it did not give publication to the forecast and their technical background - the Chinese regard this as a Nichtverständnis of their prognoses. 1976 spent Chinese scientists due to drastically risen tensions/pressures in the earth's crust, who were measured by measuring probes in boreholes, in a region around three larger cities earthquake warning on moderately severe earthquakes in the next approx. 4 weeks. Only one city took and made the warning public Ernst, on which no further evacuation measures emergency little were, since humans on their part pulled all in the free. In that predicted period came then a very heavy earthquake (strength 7.5) with the famous 250,000 dead of Tangshan - only in the city, where humans took the warning seriously, there were not nearly no dead ones. It reported that bright red light on the horizon was to be seen, a deep Grollen and then came quake. In Kobe by black, then red, then brightly becoming and finally green light were reported before. Despite the satellite monitoring of completely Japan could not be said here quake by the scientists before, but the earth sent warning signals, was not interpreted before only it. The spring water was changed, 10 days before noticed a woman, how a hand fell down from the clock, the air conditioning system of alone started, one day before the moon strangely pink was, the television changed constantly from alone between the channels back and forth. Professor Ikeya reports the fact that Salatblätter rushed, although it was zero wind and made attempts with the Van Grafft generator and demonstrated before the camera, how the sheets of plants vibrate due to electromagnetic tensions. Professor Ikeya is strongly criticized as physicist and not Seismiker. (As described, however of the Japanese scientist also provable successes of the Chinese colleagues were doubted above. One should thus honours assumes that the Japanese do not function humanly somehow scientists that they criticize possible successes of other scientists in each case - my opinion). Other noticed that one week before the Kobe there earthquakes no more rats were and some noticed already 3 months before that it strew-ends less and less cats gave, and briefly vorm earthquakes finally none more. Before earthquakes there are extremely many missed animals. The pigeons do not fly away all before and a pigeon breeder noticed that its pigeons were extremely nervous, the hens eggs put and let them therefore fly. Then the earthquake and it came took three days, until all back were. A researcher examines bees, the magnetite in their body stored and to changes of magnetic field to react. It has determined that a fine-counterbalanced magnet measurer for 0-10 cycles per second is frequency has, more drüber becomes it again more badly. Humans stored also magnetite. Are there thus neurophysiological respectable notes for a sixth sense of humans and animal, whom the scientists should take Ernst finally? Is there a characteristic behavior of animals before earthquakes? Is there a conclusive explanation? Could we use this behavior for the earthquake forecast? For centuries, if to not thousands of years report again and again independently of culture and religion humans in the whole world of remarkable and strange behavior of animals, whatever they observed days until hours or only minutes before an earthquake. If today in Europe smaller to moderately severe earth impacts are to be registered, still the telephones ring with the prominent earthquake researchers hot, because attentive inhabitants of the areas concerned consider their individual animal observations so important that they want to help gladly science and research. Which behavior of the animals is it now that the attention of humans pulls to not completely clarified connection on itself and with high probability with following earth impacts in one until today? Thereby the intensive fear of the dogs, which arrange sometimes grant or nightlong barking, is particularly remarkable, and so to be sometimes zermürbend it can that e.g. 1783 before that became to finally issue to devastating earthquake in Messina on Sicilies the instruction to shoot all dogs. But not all dogs react in such a way, it give quite also almost contrarily working reports from the population, where the dogs verkriechen themselves only under furniture and anstarren their gentlemen, and/or its proximity look for. From the larger utilizable animals, like horses, cattle, pigs, sheep and goats similar reports are present, which witness from substantial fear, panic and escape behavior, and often a consistent Verweigerung to enter their corrals or stables or even substantial tried ones to break out of their stables. A report is interesting from the year 1976 over a cattle herd, which was seized without visible reason for the Hirten of one second on the other one by a wave the excitement, then panisch by raues area ran and with dead cattle into consequence over a steep slope fell. Later it turned out that at this time an earthquake with the modest value of 3,5 on the judge scale was, which was not noticed by humans. The report witnesses thus from a very intensive fear and panic behavior of the animals, although it would have given for it in principle no realistic reason. To know of cats a less clear, honour sense-oriented behavior for centuries before earthquakes - they bring suddenly their boys except house elsewhere in nature in security - it seem reported thus, what can to mean and bend an earthquake forwards. But there is not only our house and utilizable animals, but also many game animals, which show unusual behavior patterns. Thus it is very often reported that rats and mice their Unterschlüpfe run abandoned and often completely without fear and with bare hand to catch around. Queues awoke from the winter sleep and on the soil to see, exactly the same as often unusual many worms appear. From birds there are a great many reports, although these would not have at all to be afraid nevertheless generally an earthquake. In cages or stables poultry imprisoned held or singing birds begins to flutter wildly and discharges loud of warning calls, and already the ancient Greeks used geese as earthquake Warner. The freely living birds work also only very excited, before they absolutely take flight. From otherwise very shy game animals like e.g. deer and often contrary observations from the population concerned pre them are appropriate for wild, shy Raubtieren work much zahm and without fear, and come occasionally even calmly into a village moved. In Japan from tradition the behavior is already observed and investigated by fish before earthquakes in every detail. On the one hand violent movements of fish are in the meantime well-known in aquariums approx. eight days before an earthquake, also in the sea due to the fishing offers on the markets an on the one hand clearly higher catch quota can days before heavy earthquakes be constituted near the coast. Further seem obviously determined fish places in the offer suddenly give, which there were not before at all.

finally there exist now video material about earthquake clouds - people often watched this and told about it but the scienitst did not take it serious - Prof. Ikeya was successfull in creating this clouds in the laboratory and find an explanation for it. Unfortunately he had only problems with his research and died.
