Default Problems with scripting

As usual, with long texts, I find it difficult to script them precisely.
The following is not the hardest, but still I cannot figure out some moments as

1. " ........4:37.... If the animals ran away. If they didn't run away it's nothing else"

2. "quakes are impossible to predict...7:20..." His work is controversial"

3. "Because.. 7:33.. what I'm talking about is nonsense"

4. "He...7:48... lost pet ads from"

5. "...7:59... I have the daily records since 1979"

Can Animals Predict Disaster? - Video: Full Episode . Nature | PBS Part 1

Could anyone help me?

1. It ... It's a nice story - if the animals ran away. If they didn't run away, it's not news.
2. Quakes are impossible to predict, so ... animals are just superfluous.
3. Because peer review says what I'm talking about is nonsense.
4. He scours lost pet ads
5. ?

Just a few more:

1. "of missing cats ...8:09... for ten year with"

2. "went up to 27 ...8:14... . His biggest claim to fame"

3. "in three years which ...8:39... is going to happen"

4. "of October I called ...8:43... Four days later"

5. "carried on long after I’m gone (?)" <--- the last words of the video

:)
