MIAMI — People around the world have acquired knowledge from generations of deadly hurricanes, learning how to adapt and survive when fearsome winds and torrential downpours are in the area. Residents in the United States and beyond are privy to information like severe weather alerts, gaining precious preparation time to evacuate their homes or take safe shelter.
In contrast, fellow ecosystem inhabitants must rely on their natural instincts when a hurricane strikes. From some of the world’s most feared predators to smaller creatures in the animal kingdom, species have adapted in their own ways, absent of real-time information or alerts.
