Solution
The correct option is A Sloth
Tsunamis are large waves created by earthquakes.
The low vibrations created by such an earthquake sometimes cannot be detected by humans, whereas larger animals like elephants can sense the vibrations earlier.
During tsunamis the elephants will scream and run for higher ground, dogs refuse to go outdoors, flamingos abandon their low-lying breeding areas and zoo animals will rush into their shelters and will not come back out.
