Which animals can predict the weather?
Jellyfish can capture the information of the coming storm before 15 hours, and calmly hide their bodies in a safe place. Bioengineers have found that jellyfish have an "ear" that can feel ultrasonic waves. There is a ball filled with liquid on a thin rod at the front end of the "ear", and a small stone floats on it, which is in contact with nerve endings. When the balls receive ultrasonic waves, they transmit them to the nerves through pebbles, and jellyfish know that strong winds are coming.
Misgurnus anguillicaudatus is called a barometer. On a sunny day, it stays motionless under the water. When the wind and rain come, it will curl up and swim. It may rain soon when it turns up and down, left and right in the water.
In the animal kingdom, frogs are called "living barometer", which is caused by the characteristics of frog skin. When the air is dry, the evaporation of skin moisture is accelerated, so frogs need to stay in the water to keep their skin moist; In the wet and rainy season, the skin moisture does not volatilize and jumps out of the water. Therefore, frogs have become a "living barometer" for African aborigines to observe weather changes. As long as the locals see the tree frog climb from the water to the tree, they will do a good job of rain protection.
1794 In the early winter, the French army invaded the Netherlands. Unable to fight, the Dutch had to open the canal gate, trying to flood the road with water and stop the French attack. Facing the vast sea, the French army is ready to go home. Just then, the French commander who knew a little about biology found that the spider was turning the net abnormally and urged the troops to stop acting and stand by. Because he knows that spiders only do this in sunny and cold weather. Sure enough, the temperature suddenly dropped soon, the water soon froze, and the French army went straight into the ice cave.
If you see the ant nest building higher and higher, you have to prepare warm clothes. It may be very cold this winter.
Newton, a great scientist, once heard a shepherd say it was going to rain, but he doubted it because it was unusually sunny. But in less than half an hour, it began to rain heavily. Newton was surprised and asked for advice. The shepherd pointed to his flock and said that it was some behavior of the sheep to tell him that it was going to rain. A sheep is a hygrometer. If the goat lies under the eaves, it will rain. Sheep jumping on the grass will be sunny.
Siberia also has a "hygrometer" chipmunk. In sunny weather, if chipmunks jump around screaming, dark clouds will soon cover the sky and rain will fall in an instant; If chipmunks bark loudly in the morning, it means there will be bad weather at night.
