Dogs can sense magnetic fields

Not rock pile related but I thought this was of interest. People claim magnetic anomalies are common at sacred sites.

  1. Foxes use it too, apparently:
    " Cerveny believes that foxes have "a magnetic sense." Not only can they see, hear, touch, taste and smell like we do, they've got an extra gift. They can sense the Earth's magnetic field. There are birds, sharks, turtles and ants that can do the same thing. But the fox is the first animal we know of to use this sense to hunt..." http://www.npr.org/blogs/krulwich/2014/01/03/259136596/youre-invisible-but-ill-eat-you-anyway-secrets-of-snow-diving-foxes?sc=tw&cc=share
