À propos de cet audio

A Florida man insists his pet capybara can predict hurricanes days in advance—and scientists are starting to pay attention. In this episode of Brain Bamboozle, we dive into the strange case of Señor Wiggles, the rodent who may be rewriting what we know about animal instincts and storm tracking.

....
There is no credible scientific evidence or widely reported news confirming that a Florida man named Travis McGill or his pet capybara, Señor Wiggles, can accurately predict hurricanes days in advance and that scientists are now studying this claim. While there are anecdotal reports and folklore about animals sensing weather changes—such as certain birds changing their behavior before storms—these are not always supported by rigorous scientific research[8][6][9].
Some studies have shown that certain wild animals, like the veery thrush, may alter their behavior in ways that correlate with upcoming severe weather, but these findings are species-specific and based on long-term observation, not isolated pets[6][8]. The story about Señor Wiggles, if true at all, is likely a local or viral anecdote, not a scientifically validated phenomenon.
In summary, while it is possible for animals to sense environmental changes, there is no scientific consensus or documented case of a pet capybara reliably predicting hurricanes, nor are scientists broadly paying attention to such a claim at this time[8][6][9].
