Human causes of earthquake

 Some years back, our country experienced a serious earthquake. This was as a result of human activities such as  explosions resulting from the underground nuclear tests carried out by man, trains and explosives used in querries also caused tremors which are sensed in shore distances and construction of large reservoirs. Therefore, the seismologists have encouraged people to use exotic-quake signals by urging people to be very keen.
 Before the occurrence of an earthquake, it has been observed that animal tend to behave in a unique manner eg. birds may stop taking water from the lakes or ponds in an area. Also the government has implemented tough penalties to people convicted of activities causing earth quakes.
