"Animals sometimes become stressed before an earthquake," says Zhao Bing, Nanjing Seismological Bureau's chief of scientific monitoring. But the occasional bit of oddness from one chicken doesn't necessarily spell trouble, so groups of animals are being observed, "so that their behaviour can be cross-checked", he explains. A member of staff at Hongshan Forest Zoo, another monitoring site, says animals can be just as effective as specialist technology when trying to predict a quake. "Birds can become 'nervous' - if their tails are wagging like a dog's, you should pay attention," Shen Zhijun tells the paper.

南京地震局科技监测处处长赵兵说：“有时地震前动物会变得紧张。但是，一只鸡偶尔的反常不足以预报地震，因此需要对大量动物进行观测，“以便彼此应证。另一个观测站位于红山森林公园，那里的一名工作人员称，在预测地震上，动物可以和专业科技一样有效。沈志军告诉《现代快报》，“鸟类会变得紧张。如果它们的尾巴像狗一样摆动，就要加以注意了。
