The 6.2 magnitude earthquake that recently occurred in Gansu (China) left at least 131 people dead. Notably, a few days earlier, people saw a strange flock of black birds flying in circles in the sky.

Since ancient times, people have paid attention to the movements of some animals: When it's sunny, if ants suddenly move to a high place, there will be rain, and monkeys will naturally pull groups up into big tree branches, which is a sign of danger. An earthquake or a change in the habits and behavior of birds is a sign of a storm or tsunami...

There is no shortage of anecdotes about massive and unusual evacuations of mammals, fish, birds, reptiles and insects that take place even weeks to seconds before natural disasters strike.

The clearest sighting was the 6.2 magnitude earthquake that occurred in Xishishan district, Linxia province, Gansu province, China at 11:59 p.m. on December 18. The epicenter was in Lieu Cau town. The earthquake claimed at least 118 people in Gansu and 11 in Qinghai, damaging water, electricity, transportation, communications and other infrastructure.

Worth mentioning, two days before the earthquake in Gansu, some people took pictures of a large flock of black birds flying in the local sky.

Immediately after the Gansu earthquake occurred, images of black birds spread widely. Many people believe that this is a warning sign of natural disasters because in history, there has been a lot of evidence of animals sensing natural disasters earlier than humans and exhibiting strange behavior within a few years. weeks to seconds before an earthquake.

In 1975, a similar phenomenon occurred in Hai Thanh city (Liaoning, China). Despite extremely low temperatures and freezing water, many snakes raced to slither out of hibernation in the weeks before the 7.3 magnitude earthquake hit Hai Thanh on February 4 of that year. .

The reptile's unusual behavior, along with other incidents, convinced authorities to evacuate people from the city hours before the disaster.

Animals also behaved strangely before the historic 7.8 magnitude earthquake on July 28, 1976 in Tangshan industrial city, Hebei province, China. This disaster leveled almost the entire city, claiming the lives of more than 700 thousand people.

Hooc Thien Hoa, a resident of this city, recalled that on July 25, 1976, 3 days before the earthquake, he heard a strange noise at the fish pond, ran out to see and saw a school of fish jumping. High above the water, some jump straight into the sky, spinning like a spinning top.
