A Review: on the Animal abnormal behaviour during the Earthquake or Before Earthquake

 

The quest for reliable earthquake prediction has led researchers to explore various unconventional methods, one of which involves the study of animal behaviour. Observations have shown that some animals exhibit unusual behaviours before seismic events, suggesting a potential link between animal activities and impending earthquakes. This abstract summarizes the emerging research on using animal behaviour as an indicator for earthquake prediction. Studies have documented phenomena such as increased agitation, abnormal movements, and changes in vocalizations among various species prior to seismic occurrences. These behaviours are hypothesized to be responses to subtle environmental changes, such as shifts in electromagnetic fields, ground vibrations, or gas emissions, which are imperceptible to humans. By systematically recording and analysing these behavioural changes in different animal species, researchers aim to develop predictive models that could serve as an early warning system. The integration of animal behaviour data with traditional seismological methods may enhance the accuracy of earthquake forecasts and contribute to disaster preparedness and risk reduction strategies. Despite promising preliminary findings, further research is needed to establish standardized protocols and validate the reliability of these biological indicators in various seismic contexts.
