under ground animals like rodents, snakes and mole come out of the ground, they will know the earth's seismic waves.
answer 2 We have 4 or 5 earthquakes each year, mostly quite minor. I have never felt any pre-cursor effects. I can assure you that cats are of no value in this as they, lying on the bed at night, get plenty of movement anyway and never display alarm.
As far as Tsunami are concerned, the answer is different. If you are by the shore and you feel an earthquake, head for the high ground as quick as you can. And warn others as well, but not to the extent that it would compromise your own escape. Another pre-cursor is that of the ocean retreating from the shore. When that happens, you have only a few minutes to escape to higher ground.
As recently as 1958, in Lituya Bay, Alaska, a tsunami reached over 500m high due to 'favourable geography'. And about 105 000 years ago, an tsunami driven from Lanai in the Hawaiian Islands reached 375m as shown by uplifted blocks of coral. [This event could also have been caused by a meteor impact in the Pacific.]

The earthquake moves the ground and the movement makes a volcano erupt!
When will the next tornado warning be?
Such a thing is impossible to predict. A tornado warning itself is a prediction that the threat of a tornado is imminent. As soon as signs indicate that a tornado warning is warranted, then one is issued. So there is no way of nowing when a tornado warning is going to be issued until it actually happens.

How is the Tian Shan important?
The Tian Shan is important in helping scientists identify the signs of a coming earthquake. Specifically, it's always the location of an earthquake within 1-1/2 years of earthquakes in the Altai and Hindu Kush mountain ranges. Scientists therefore have 1-1/2 years in which to recognize earthquake warning signs and also apply that knowledge to predicting earthquakes in other areas.
