WOW!!!!! Thank you.
great programing, I was in a earthwake in 1974 and still remember how the dogs react previus to the big earthwake, so the days after with the after shokes we put attention to the barking of the dogs in the block.
Confirms our beliefs… Most Amazing!

Great effort. Good work and thank you. This confirms our beliefs. Animals are capable of sensing natural disasters in advance.
I am used to being able to watch your videos in full screen. Has this function been taken away? If so, very disappointing as will not use them in the future if this is the case.
i really needed to know this! i have many animals that can help me. this can save lives!!!!!

the last piece where the guy played music then hippo play backs DID NOT prove anything beyond the fact that hippos recognized their own calls. It was wasted effort.
My grandmother was 12 years old when the big one hit (1906) She told us many times that ALL of the cats and dogs in San Francisco KNEW that it was coming at least two days in advance. Dogs and cats ran away from home, and if they couldn`t they tried to make the stupid bi-peds understand that the city was about to bite the big one! Of course nobody listened…

WOW!!! This is amazing. I loved this. Thanks a lot!!!
not to many people pay atention to animals god put them here for more then killing for sport.
A lot of people call animals dumb, and say that humans are the smart ones. But once you think about it animals are the smart ones, and humans are the dumb ones.
COOL! Can you put on more full episode videos?
While camping at Estes State Park-Colo late August, it was a morning ritual to watch the birds, Dad called ‘Camp Robbers’ literally eat off our plates even though we were sitting at the table. One morning he observed the birds were gone and decided we should pack up a day earlier than planned, and head off to Denver. By the time we reached Monarch Pass, we were one of the last cars allowed through before the pass was closed for two weeks due to an unusually large snow storm. Had we not left when we did, we would have been stranded at the park in the snow with limited resources. True story.
hah, makes me feel like staring at my pets
Maybe God is looking out for them?
This episode was VERY informative. It’s made me more aware of animals’ behavior and I now hold a brand new respect for them after watching this show. Thanks for making such an awesome show, P.B.S.!!!!!!!!
I really enjoyed this video. It was very interesting!
