I grew up in the Chernobyl area. Was in 8th grade when It blew up. We were playing outside and nobody told us about the catastrophe for a few days and it would've been better to stay inside. Now In my immediate family we have two cases of thyroid cancer(one sister passed) and the third sister had her thyroid removed because it started to grow uncontrollably. One case of breast cancer, one case of stomach cancer, one case of tongue cancer and one case of brain cancer (passed as well)... It is all in between 12 people who once lived in the Chernobyl affected area...
The thyroid cancer I believe is due to radioactive iodine. I live about ten miles from a nuclear electricity generation facility, and we are instructed to have iodine tablets on hand to consume in the event of an accident at that facility. The thyroid absorbs that ordinary iodine, and that reduces radioactive iodine absorption by the thyroid. Those living in the vicinity of Chernobyl could have been supplied with iodine tablets to reduce the incidence of thyroid cancer.
Dude one time I saw a boar get hit by a car going 70 mph. It was stunned but it just got up and walked away. Car front was crushed. Insanely tough animals.
@@nostaljiturkce Not entirely true, as their are wild animals that subconsciously consume herbs to heal various aliments. Some monkey species in South America consume charcoal to detox.
@@rogerjamespaul5528 Thank you for your contribution. True. Most do consume herbs or other materials to relieve pain and heal. They sure have brains as well.
the two worst animals to hit with a car, Moose go thru the windshield and into the passenger compartment and sometimes stop in the trunk and swine are short enough to go under the car and are solid enough to roll the car or at least put it airborne
The Chernobyl accident's failure to decimate wild boar populations reveals a haunting truth: nature's resilience in the face of human catastrophe. While radiation wreaked havoc on human lives and the environment, these creatures adapted and thrived, embodying a powerful, if unsettling, testament to life’s enduring will to survive against all odds.
There are humans living in Chernobyl right now. The effect of background radiation overtime and based on level exposed to have some interesting questions. I suggest that you look at Pandora's Box on your streaming service along with New Fire as a movie
I ran into a couple of wild boar while on maneuvers in Germany as an officer in the US Army. One night we stopped on top of a low hill. I was in an armored personnel carrier heard, something was knocking on the back of the vehicle like somebody was trying to get in, I looked over the back of the vehicle. It was a wild boar attacking our armored vehicle. I decided not to dismount. Another time I was in the Jeep and we were going through a forest early in the morning when be rounded a corner. There was a wild board standing in the middle of the road, he wasn’t moving. And since he looked bigger than my jeep, I decided to back up.

@@jonaswerner8480how did you manage to run into a group of wild boars😂😂, they are louder than elefants, you are lucky we have noch bears, if your observation of the world around you is so bad. Please so no more walks in the forest at night, for your own safety.😂😂😂
@@zhoubaidinh403 false.... If one breed fast enough when facing natural selection in the form of killer radiation, there's a good chance that some member of the group develop immunity and thus passing off it's genetic advantage.
True as mankind has moved out the many animal species have reinhabited the area and have greatly increased in population. This is to be expected what happens to these animals is the part that needs study they are more likely to have the same effects that occur in humans ie a shorter lifespan and a variety of cancers tumours and health issues
The announcer breathlessly proclaims that in 38 years 4,000 people have died from the effects of radiation. That's 1% of the 350,000 evacuated. The real lesson from Chernobyl, aside from reactor design, is that the effects of radiation are vastly overstated.

The scientists should study cancer rates among wild boar...living with radiation is not quite the same as thriving. Potential for medical research considering the similarities between humans and pigs
@@TheKlink Numbers can rebound in fast reproducing species while each individual member has a shorter life with more disease and assorted problems. They start breeding at 6 months, so maybe they just take longer than that to die off.
@@TheKlink After all, the boars benefitted a lot from humans vanishing, at the same time as the radiation, so who's to say how much these affected numbers as well....
What an enlightening explanation! I have never given thought to "survivers" ... human, animals, grass/trees/foliage/flowers). I had assumed that ALL life was destroyed, so this is quite educational.
Definitely not. The trees, forests were thick and flourishing. Magnificent countryside. Various houses of people who chose to stay. Lots of dogs running free.
Seriously, ridiculous, people still live there, you do know that right. Lots and lots of wild animals, and none are disfigured by radiation. Its a huge lie
Science...is a process. We only know what we know. This changes EVERY SECOND in this world. This is our "first" nuclear accident on a large scale. I'm very interested in what study provides. I'm sure we are learning as we go. Most of the information about medicine and technology I heard as a kid in the 50's now look VERY sketchy. It wasn't exactly a lie; it was all we knew at the time. Kinda different things.
@mikemondano3624 not true at all, you need to read up on this, many people did not leave and still live there today, not directly at the nuclear site but in the surrounding farms, you should Google it before answering to find out
Its been on in many countries for years. They do a lot of damage to environments when their numbers get high. They need turning into pet and human food. 😋🍽
I don't know if taking those pet animals out of the area is such a good idea, they are basically wild animals at this point. Also they lived there all their life, hunting and surviving and probably filling an economic niche in that specific area, taking them out of there sounds like a really bad idea to me.
Maybe a sterilization program might inhibit over population. Spaying/neutering the animals, then tagging them. If they keep multiplying, they will migrate out of the area into areas not affected by radiation and cause damage. We have them here in FL considered invasive, brought by Spanish explorers. Hunting them is allowed with permits.
its simple.. they root into the ground for tubers and grubs. Check the groundhogs or similar animal they may have there. I predict that the levels are similar or higher
The US doesn't need more cats and dogs, plenty of strays here already. It seems the pets are thriving in the exclusion zone so the only reason I see these people doing it is out of some type of savior complex.
Most informative & interesting❤ ! The Chernobyl blast affect spread far & wide poluting the lives of several countries as a whole ! Interesting to note that certain species of animals thrived even with the radio active elements in them ! Thanks
5:47 This map of the spread of the radioactive cloud after the time is not correct, the area is much larger than shown on the map... All the Danish land was also hit by the cloud, and even that day we can still measure the remains in Danish land!
Pets: residents didn't panic and move out leaving their pets, most didn't know what was going on but were told to evacuate, and were not allowed to take the pets with them.
Why are the wild boars still active and roaming around eating truffles with radiation and continuing to live a normal life? I think the fungi must have done well in eating the nuclear waste...
That’s because the less you hunt them, the less they reproduce. So more pressure, more banging which means more pigs. Hence why Ft Campbell banned killing hogs.
At the beginning of the film, it is said that we know of 4,000 recorded victims. About 6-7 years ago, I read in a BBC news report that the Japanese Supreme Court acquitted the 3 top managers of the Fukushima nuclear power plant, because they did not find a single case of death that resulted directly from the accident at the power plant. Of course, even to this day, the press records the disaster that occurred on this day with 23,000 deaths. It is not described that this was all caused by the tsunami. Who among you has heard about the Bhopal disaster. It was an explosion at a chemical plant in India in the 1970s. The result was 20,000 dead. From these examples, you can see how the press plays with us and changes reality. And this method is also a great lesson on how they are trying to tune us against nuclear energy.
Humans the most dangerous animal. Its sickening that our earth gives us everything we need and in abundance and we in turn take more, and have wiped out whole species.
These nuclear exclusion zones are laboratories to study natural selection and genetic drift in isolated populations. Wild boar have had some 75 generations. Some early sows had a slightly higher chance of survival; some of their piglets inherited this gene. (The deformed ones became wolf & dog munchies.) I would expect the current population to be more closely related genetically than say elsewhere. .
I remember the very day. We were sailing in Scotland and there was an easterly wind, which brought rain from Russia, it was gentle rain that soaks you through!
Yep. No one wants to really research why the Soviet’s nuclear plants were nothing like everyone else’s. Almost all of Frances power come,s from nuclear and they seem to be doing ok. It’s crazy to me how stupid the so called environmentalists are.
Here we can't eat much catfish from river downstream of Oak Ridge. Cesium gets into fat, Strontium into bones. Signs say don't eat more than 1# a month unless pregnant or nursing, then none. I never eat big cats. Always smaller, always filleted. Never from major channels. What a world.😮
If they chip these boar and deer, they could remove them when they die, and with them the radiation their bodies have absorbed. Effectively, these animals are giving the area a thorough deep cleaning, I hope the local authorities are taking advantage of this phenomenon
that's so sad to think of the pets people had to abandon during the incident. The thought of having to move on with life wondering whatever happened to your dog or cat (granted if you didn't die shortly afterwards) must've been really hard for those people
They had soldiers killing the pets and live stock left behind! The poor pets would come to them for help, and were killed. It was better than letting them die a long painful death, but it was hard on the soldiers who did it! I am happy that scientists are still studying the effects of the radiation. We need to learn from this terrible incident! It must NEVER happen again!
I'm glad you commented this because every time I've watched footage related to the evacuation process, one of the things that messed with me the most was the thought of being forced to leave behind your pets.. I can imagine myself putting up as much of a fight I possibly could, in order to be allowed to carry my dog. I'd seriously be so mad, then utterly heartbroken. So I can't imagine how awful that was for those people..
There is an amazingly large (considering the circumstances) population of dogs and cats still living there. Who knew? I've hoped for a day they can be reunited. I cannot IMAGINE us leaving our dog behind with such an unknown terror.
@@hebrewmarcelin5879 I agree. I understand, from the series, that the soldiers were given lots to drink to smooth their minds from the horror they saw, and had to perform. Terrible, terrible times for all involved.
There was a more competent story on that. Wild life was affected by the disaster by becoming actual undisturbed wild life, all plants and animals in the exclusion zone doing great. Over the years, detected radiation levels in the specimens was decreasing, EXCEPT for wild boars that had a robust health even so. To be sure, when an animal is a victim of cancer, local carnivores would dispose of it, so an unhappy boar makes a happy wolf, the ecosystem marches on, unlike with humans who collect statistics, complain about pain etc., so the status of the wild life does not necessarily mean that the area can be returned to human habitation. BTW, after researching, it was discovered that mushroom that are part of boar diet efficiently accumulate radioactive isotopes from deep in the soil
Wild boars have a lifespan of 1-2 years. They died before they got sick. They're now many generations away from the original incident. They died-birthed their way clean.
Interesting thing, those horses, the last wild horses, have been found to be the only horses that descend from the first domesticated horse breed. Strange to think about.
Even the reindeer in Norway are radioactive coz of the dispersion of radioactive isotopes and 1.5 pounds dropped into the country through continuous precipitation, now I realize why Rudolf’s nose glows red.
2000 people still work at the remaining reactors is my understanding. The power station never shutdown or closed even during meltdown - correct me if I’m wrong. I saw all the workers getting on buses to go vote for Zelensky - also saw a moose running around in Pripyat. Interesting tour for sure.
as to your point about the "scary mutants" they are definitely being created... but they don't survive bc of the mutations... i have some unhelpful mutations... they just weren't severe enough to kill me... yet....

If they chip these boar and deer, they could remove them when they die, and with them the radiation their bodies have absorbed. Effectively, these animals are giving the area a thorough deep cleaning, I hope the local authorities are taking advantage of this phenomenon
Cool. Glowing Radstag.
A LOT of radiation IN the bodies of all those wild animals, for DECADES, but however, they SURVIVE and look HEALTHY... WTF ???
"Would you like a radioactive puppy?" Turn off the lights, and see him glow.
The US have enough strays already.
Hogs take over quickly,they are tough but mostly they breed quickly
so truffle hunting might be dangerous in Europe and Russia with all the nuclear fallout around?
Well, there goes the truffle industry...
I bet those Chernobyl truffles are a bit spicy.
happiest video on youtube - our bacon's safe, people, rejoice!
Narrator sounds like Seth Rogen. And the green glowing pigs and reindeer 😂
The Scary Interesting background music is some hella popular stock music
''When scientists discovered this Anomaly'' - thats a heck of a statementl for sure
that's so sad to think of the pets people had to abandon during the incident. The thought of having to move on with life wondering whatever happened to your dog or cat (granted if you didn't die shortly afterwards) must've been really hard for those people
They had soldiers killing the pets and live stock left behind! The poor pets would come to them for help, and were killed. It was better than letting them die a long painful death, but it was hard on the soldiers who did it! I am happy that scientists are still studying the effects of the radiation. We need to learn from this terrible incident! It must NEVER happen again!
@@Loveoldies50 absolutely! Definitely a mercy on their part but I can't imagine being put in that position as a soldier
I'm glad you commented this because every time I've watched footage related to the evacuation process, one of the things that messed with me the most was the thought of being forced to leave behind your pets.. I can imagine myself putting up as much of a fight I possibly could, in order to be allowed to carry my dog. I'd seriously be so mad, then utterly heartbroken. So I can't imagine how awful that was for those people..
There is an amazingly large (considering the circumstances) population of dogs and cats still living there. Who knew? I've hoped for a day they can be reunited. I cannot IMAGINE us leaving our dog behind with such an unknown terror.
@@hebrewmarcelin5879 I agree. I understand, from the series, that the soldiers were given lots to drink to smooth their minds from the horror they saw, and had to perform. Terrible, terrible times for all involved.
Radiation to stop people eating boars 😂
There was a more competent story on that. Wild life was affected by the disaster by becoming actual undisturbed wild life, all plants and animals in the exclusion zone doing great. Over the years, detected radiation levels in the specimens was decreasing, EXCEPT for wild boars that had a robust health even so.
To be sure, when an animal is a victim of cancer, local carnivores would dispose of it, so an unhappy boar makes a happy wolf, the ecosystem marches on, unlike with humans who collect statistics, complain about pain etc., so the status of the wild life does not necessarily mean that the area can be returned to human habitation.
BTW, after researching, it was discovered that mushroom that are part of boar diet efficiently accumulate radioactive isotopes from deep in the soil
Their offspring generally became resistant to the effects of radiation.
Fuchashima was bigger but had Westinghouse reactors so we cant mention that
Wild boars have a lifespan of 1-2 years. They died before they got sick. They're now many generations away from the original incident. They died-birthed their way clean.
Ok so after a nuclear war survivors can have wild pork chops 😂
Well, that explains it. The retention of radiation obviously is a survival mechanism. The boars are safe from being eaten. Very clever on their part.
and here i am wondering if brightly green glowing animals are not somewhat sus??
So would Fukushima have followed along with the tides currents and sealife?
Interesting thing, those horses, the last wild horses, have been found to be the only horses that descend from the first domesticated horse breed. Strange to think about.
That's backward. Modern horses descended from them.
Hogzilla
Even the reindeer in Norway are radioactive coz of the dispersion of radioactive isotopes and 1.5 pounds dropped into the country through continuous precipitation, now I realize why Rudolf’s nose glows red.
2000 people still work at the remaining reactors is my understanding. The power station never shutdown or closed even during meltdown - correct me if I’m wrong. I saw all the workers getting on buses to go vote for Zelensky - also saw a moose running around in Pripyat. Interesting tour for sure.
as to your point about the "scary mutants" they are definitely being created... but they don't survive bc of the mutations... i have some unhelpful mutations... they just weren't severe enough to kill me... yet....
Radioactive pork chops on sale at a very low price get them before they're gone!
