enough with this tsunami

i know...everyone is overwhelmed and overstuffed with info about this great disaster. But there's just one thing I heard about that impressed me: that the animals managed to escape the tsunami. Some people claim it happened because of a "sixth sense", some because of their acute hearing sense that gave them the time to flee.

The fact remains that after a few thousand years of human civilisation on this planet, though we are "the animal with the bigget intellect" we still haven't managed to learn from the rest of the animals on how to protect ourselves. Don't take it literally as written above, but there might have been a way to save all those people that died in vain.
