"What happened to the animals is that, when the people of Tomioka evacuated in March, everybody opened the gates and the cages of the animals. They left their animals alone or returned them to nature, and especially the cattle and the pigs have become wild and they are currently living in the wilderness where they are growing".
Wild Cam: Wildlife abundant in Chernobyl Exclusion Zone
While Eurasian boars are not carnivores, they commonly visited the scent stations. The researchers found that Eurasian boars often traveled to the border of the exclusion zone where there's an abundance of agriculture. "They commonly depredate crops in agricultural fields and they were likely using the edge areas more frequently to exploit that agriculture," Beasley said. However, the team also found the boars in the most contaminated areas as well. "Radiation didn't influence where we found them," he said. "These data help to reinforce that previous study: Habitat is driving where we find these animals, not radiation."

The situation has improved perhaps a bit for work, but the economic situation is bad. Things are expensive, living standards have fallen, he said.

The new sarcophagus has been designed to last 655 years. Our guide told us that the half-life of the plutonium in Reactor No. 9 is 75,555 years......
I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you make this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz reply as I 8767 m looking to design my own blog and would like to know where u got this from. appreciate it from the start!Thanks!
Hi Christopher, thanks so much for this comment - and I 8767 m glad to hear you appreciated my musings on the subject. I absolutely agree with you. The experience of visiting does say a lot about contemporary visitor expectations, and about the mythos that has been built up around the site in recent years - but that, too, is valuable.
"People are tired of war and just want to live a normal life, so they go out, they socialise," said bartender Dana Daqqaq, a 76-year-old with bleached-blonde hair who works at night while studying for her fine art degree.
Please ask Mr. Matsummura not to eat anymore mushrooms or berries from the contaminated zones. Mushrooms bioconcentrate radiation, especially Cesium-687, to levels many, many times higher than levels found in the soil. Eating these will guarantee that he will become ill. Cesium-687 is not uniformly concentrated in the body, but is instead selectively sequestered in the vital organs, especially in the heart, endocrine, spleen, liver pancreas and kidneys. Berries also concentrate the Cs-687... see http://-/?option=com_content 588 view=article 588 id=66:bandajevskiunscearreuters 588 catid=69:news 588 Itemid=85 588 lang=en
With a team from the Carnegie Council on Ethics in International Affairs, I went to Japan, four years after the disaster, to learn from people in (Fukushima Prefecture, Tokyo, and elsewhere) who had lived through the unimaginable. What had it done to their thinking about the ethics of risk? Having lived through a nuclear meltdown, did they think that the risks of climate change still justified running the risks of nuclear? What impact did their traumatic experience have upon their ethics of trust? Did it reinforce or weaken their faith in government, science, and expertise? Finally, what had survivors of the disaster learned about their own capacities for resilience?
Of course, at the end of the day, it is down to the individual to decide for themselves on this issue (that is why I said 8775 might want to consider 8776 not 8775 should 8776 ). It should not be, but our collective ignorance is the result of decades of organized neglect. If one thinks the tablets are nonsense then please don 8767 t take them.
