Do animals have sixth sense and are they able to see things invisible to humans?

Question

It is not a myth that animals are more farsighted than humans they have proved to be accurate in predicting natural calamities like recently in tsunami where animal casualities were very less ,in india it is belived that dogs,cats,cows and certain varieties of birds even predict human death by making noises in their own way for eg dogs start howling in a particular area and that could be assumed of a human death or some other unfortunate event in the area,and the changes in the nature are shown in their behaviour hours before the catastrophic event takes place thus helping them to flee to safety! that tells us not to take our pet's restless change of behavior casually.

Answer 1

Well animals can certainly perceive things in the natural world that humans can not. Many birds for example can see well into the ultraviolet spectrum as can bees and butterflies. The phenomenon that you describe illustrates the difference between animals and humans. Animals are adapted to foraging in the wild and even the tamest pet will go wild if left to fend for itself. As a result they have adapted a much keener array of senses that seem like a "sixth sense" to us at times. For people, the need for keen senses is lessened, in fact less desirable when living in large groups. Humans have large brains and use these brains to make money which buys them food. It is our move away from a sensory existence that distorts our view so that animal senses seem like a sixth sense.

Answer 2

Hi! Animals have some special senses with which they can avoid dangers. For example, recently, scientists discovered that snakes are the animals which can respond to earth quakes quicker than all animals. They will respond to earth quakes five days earlier. Scientists revealed that snakes try to move from the place they are living and if the earth quake is severe they try to destroy the walls or obstacles also which are avoiding them to leave that place. So now scientists will depend on snakes for detecting earth quakes. Mosquitoes can detect infrared rays. They can also detect carbon dioxide from man. And of course, you would have already knew that dogs, hen can detect earth quakes earlier than man. Recently scientists knew a surprising thing that a animal which lives in sea can touch things even the objects are 1 km away from it. Tigers converse in ultra sound which can't be heard by human beings. Bats, even they can't see can fly avoiding obstacles as they had a special property to send micro waves and receive them spontaneously.And the main thing we don't call it as sixth sense. They are some extra senses for them. They don't have all the feelings, a man have because, their brain was not so developed as human beings.

Answer 3

Mosquitoes can see in the infrared. They do not have a sixth sense but they can sense changes in air pressure(from the tsunami) and other things that humans miss. We communicate mostly using our mouths and ears. Animals are "dumb" meaning they don't speak so they have to use their other senses to communicate, thus they are more in tune with their environment.
