Tremor and Animal Instincts

Yesterday night (17 September, 2008) at around 03:15AM IST I experienced a tremor lasting for around 2 seconds (as it felt), must have been 5 or greater on Richter scale. Didn't find any mention of it in today's ToI edition, unless I missed it. Some time back, I got to know that some people experienced a light tremor around 5-5:30am.

But the dogs in lane knew of tremor around 30mins to an hour before I experienced it. They were bark-weeping in a different tone around that time. Someone in neighbourhood had tried to quiten them twice.

Perhaps some kind of energy pattern/magnetic field changes happen/build up in the area before the quake finally hits and these animals can sense it well in time. Only if humans could understand lesser animals!
