Miracle Animal Stories

Saint Francis of Assisi

Miracle Animal Stories in the Catholic Tradition

There are many instances of animals in the Catholic tradition and some go back to the old testament.

God has used animals at times to get a message to us as in the case of the dove bringing back the olive branch to  Noah in the ark.  Furthermore God created animals with much more intelligence that we first thought.

At other times, animals have witnessed some supernatural events. During the Apparitions at Lasalette the sheep dog was right beside the children during the Apparitions.

We want to discuss some of the Miracle animal stories in the lives of the Saints.

 

Miracle Fish and Miracle Donkey

The first of these we want to discuss is the Miracle that occurred in the life of Saint Anthony of Padua.

Actually we want to discuss two miracles. The Miracle of the fish and the Miracle of the Donkey.

When the heretics poked fun at him while he spoke at the port of Rimini, he turned towards the sea, and spoke to the fish.

 

The fish, for their part, raised their bodies out of the water, and perched, as it were, on top of the water, listening to the homily given by St. Anthony. When he was finished, St. Anthony blessed the fish, at which point they returned to the sea. Full details click here.
