Do marine animals sense the same danger of a tidal wave or tsunami?

Tsunami
we, as land based, feel the impact and danger of the tsunami, but how are marine life animals effected if even affected at all? do even deep sea animals know the impact and difference in the water of the tsunami?

Yes. Fish sense tsunamis more than humans and they are more infected by it. Yes, deep sea animals know the impact and feel it too. Some of those fish die on land after a tsunami and you see dead fish in some areas because they get thrown on land by that big wave. I don’t think its a lot of dead fish. Tsunamis can damage a fish’s brain or body because they are very sensitive animals and thats why they sense them more than humans.

yes because tsunami is just a water earthquake n when 2 land surfaces strike or moves there is a great disturbance inside the water n even it is said that fishes come to know about tsunami 2 min. before it occurs..They are obviously affected because it causes a great difference as normal just like we feel during earthquake..

Yes.The deep sea fishes will move to the shore well before Tsunami attack.
