Roe v. Wade is one of the most important decisions ever made by the Supreme Court of the United States.

were simply made from special effects and could most likely never occur in day-to-day life. One very possible scene was animals sensing the weather and being able to escape before a massive storm was soon to hit. According to http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/can-animals-predict-disaster/tall-tales-or-true/131/, “Plenty of studies have shown that some animals can sense major changes in the weather.
