FROG, FISH and BIRD Rain??
Raining animals is a relatively common meteorological phenomenon, with occurrences reported from many countries throughout history.
The animals most likely to drop from the sky in a rainfall are fish and frogs, with birds coming third.
Sometimes the animals survive the fall, especially fish, suggesting a small time gap between the extraction and the actual drop.
Several witnesses of raining frogs describe the animals as startled, though healthy, and exhibiting relatively normal behavior shortly after the event.
In some incidents, however, the animals are frozen to death or even completely enclosed in blocks of ice. These occurrences may be evidence for the transport of the victims to high altitudes, where the temperature is below zero, and they show how powerful meteorological forces can be.
Most recent occurrences include the rain of frogs and toads in Serbia (2005) and London (1998), and rains of fish in India (2006) and Wales (2004).
EVIDENCES
In Honduras, the Lluvia de Peces (Rain of Fishes) is a unique phenomenon that has been occurring for more than a century on a yearly basis in the country of Honduras.
It occurs in the Departamento de Yoro, between the months of May and July. Witnesses of this phenomenon state that it begins with is a dark cloud in the sky followed by lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain for 2 to 3 hours.
Once the rain has stopped, hundreds of living fish are found on the ground. People take the fish home to cook and eat them.
