Animal Lore (1, INT): This proficiency represents the ability to interpret
the sounds and behavior of animals and thereby anticipate some
impending threat or danger.

This threat or danger may take many forms:

a storm that is brewing, the approach of some large predator
(perhaps the approach of the party itself, from the viewpoint of
the animals), a forest fire, a volcano about to erupt, an earthquake
about to occur, and so forth.

A successful Proficiency Check indicates correct interpretation of the impending threat. If
the modified die roll indicates a Proficiency Check that is failed by
4 or less, no information will be gained. If the Proficiency Check is
failed by 5 or more, some sort of incorrect information will be obtained,
either involving a mistake in the direction from which the
threat is approaching or a mistake in identifying the nature of the
danger.
 

ANIMALS
The creatures in this section are "animals" for the purposes
of magic such as animal summoning or invisibility to animals.
Some kindly GMs may permit other creatures, such as dinosaurs
or giant invertebrates, to count as "animals" in terms of
such magic -- but this is strictly at the GM's option.
