Interesting if true...

From China Daily
"Meanwhile, ahead of Monday's deadly earthquake, many people reported seeing unusual animal behavior.
On Saturday, local media reported that hundreds of thousands of toads had appeared on the streets of Manzhu, a city about 60 km southeast of Wenchuan.
A resident surnamed Liu was quoted as saying he saw countless toads killed by passing vehicles as they crossed roads, and that he had never seen anything like it.
Similarly, on Friday, people in Taizhou, Jiangsu province, also said they saw tens of thousands of toads on the city's streets, local media said.
Experts have said animals can give advance notice of quakes, as they sense tremors before they happen.
Unfortunately, no one heeded the toads' "warning".
In response to questions from the public about the reptilian swarms, officials in both Mianzhu and Taizhou said there was nothing unusual about them.
"The move is because of the change of weather," Shu Shi, director of the Mianzhu forestry bureau, was quoted as saying by local media."
