Since then Mookie is back to normal.
Can animals from 6 hours away detect when things will happen like an Earthquake?

edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthquake_prediction Theres a section on animals, although I would rather count this as "pre-detection" instead of "prediction" http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=0ONJfp95yoE | ||

But yeah it is said that animals can sense this stuff hours beforehand | ||

Normally, if earthquakes start gradually, animals could surely sense the small imperceptible vibrations long before the large-scale vibrations would occur. I really don't know anything about earthquakes, however I am guessing they affect quite a large area, and only the smaller zone right on top of the epicenter would really suffer relative damage. | ||

We don't hear below 20 hz. Cats have better ear sensitivity. Ez. But in no way, in no twisted universe cats can "predict" earthquakes and do anything that proper equipment doesn't do better. | ||

Personally I think it's nonsense to think animals cannot detect earthquakes. There's enough cases of animals acting bonkers beforehand to demonstrate this fact. The Chinese have even used it to predict earthquakes. 6 hours is quite a distance away though. But I guess it could happen. | ||

Noone is saying that animals don't feel the initial effect of whatever phenomena better than humans do due to heightened senses. That is a known fact. The other known fact is that human-made tools can detect things like individual atoms and beyond. Yes, with a crappy seismograph that is older than dirt you might not be able to detect an incoming earthquake long beforehand. You also won't detect it if the operator is sleeping, drunk or playing blackjack with his coworkers. But saying that modern, properly operated equipment could be inferior to a cat is nonsense. The only thing of value in your post is that we really don't known the full earthquake mechanism, that is true. But whatever shape it manifests in, be it radiation, acoustic vibration or temperature fluctuations, we can measure all those things better than any animal in the world possibly can. | ||

I find it hard to believe that computer analysis has managed to completely pawn all over biology. | ||
