BREAKING NEWS – Windhoek, Namibia – Maybe the Weather Channel should start hiring elephants. A recent study suggests the creatures can detect rainstorms happening 150 miles away, possibly by hearing them even from that far off. Migrating elephants are known to change direction out of the blue, and researchers haven’t been certain why. The Namibian research team figured it might be because of rain—as Phys.org explains, elephants are regularly looking for water in the region, which is dry outside of the January-to-March rainy season. Phys.org went on to say that the closest thing comparable in relation to humans, are overweight people that can detect a McDonald’s up to 10 miles away while driving with their windows rolled down.
