I read today that the expected animal deaths in the coastal areas hit by the tsunami have not been discovered. This could be due to the fact that rescue/reporting has been focused on human casualties. But I the article mentioned that many animals might have "sensed" the threat in time and moved inland, thus saving themselves. I wonder if this will be proven.

Bilek said the quake was unusual because the size of the wave seemed large relative to the size of the quake.
"You might not have expected it to produce a large tsunami," she said. She and her colleagues have been studying the seismic conditions that distinguish subduction earthquakes that produce big tidal waves from those that don't.

Well, hmmmmmmmmmmmm... curious.

Is it too soon still to make a Michael Moore joke?
