A quake-spotting gene?
A quake-spotting gene? Professor Mitsuaki Ota of Azabu University in
Japan is looking for an "earthquake gene" in pet animals. Some pets
acted strangely before the big earthquake which hit Japan in 1995,

of pets which reacted to the coming earthquake and pets which were
unaffected in an attempt to discover a piece of DNA which could
account for earthquake-warning behaviour. MAY 18, 2000
