Animals will mass-enter human spaces quickly if their habitats are destroyed, and they generally wreak havoc on the belongings of underprepared people. If you see a stampede of deer coming from one singular place, lock your doors.

If you’re close to a volcano, or any active volcanic surface for that matter, chances are all the surrounding groundwater will intermittently bubble and swell, releasing steam. This is the precursor to an event called a “limnic eruption,” which is when a body of water surrounding a volcano literally explodes due to a buildup of carbon dioxide under the surface.
