Thank God someone is doing something about the dogs!!! This is something that I've worried about for the last 30 years. I was 34 at the time of Chernobyl andwhen I heard people weren't allowed to take their pets with them. I felt as though so if people could be washed down to disperse the radiation why couldn't there pets?
I agree. Watching people who've already lost everything having to leave their dogs behind was heartbreaking. That's when they needed their pets for comfort. The thought is unbearable.
We talking about radiation not soap. Even you will wash them they’ll still contaminated and i understand gouvernement.. this is so sad but they can’t take the risk
Yes it is very heartbreaking. I'm truly grateful of these amazing people (angels, really) who helped the poor dogs of Chernobyl. It is mentioned that you can wash the contamination away from the dogs, the way you wash the humans. But at an event of disaster, I think to the government, pets are a luxury they can't afford. Resources are very limited. If pets are brought along, special team must be made to deal with them, wash the radiation away, make sure they are healthy and without disease contagious to humans. Extra food must be procured for them, hygiene system, etc. it is simply too much, and they can't afford that. So it is sad, and I hope it will never happen again. But at that time, it was inescapable, having to leave their beloved pets behind.
@1 I am sorry, but it was my understanding that cats (and I assumed, incorrectly?) and dogs would be afraid and/or standoffish without near constant human interaction or presence. Pretty much all of the dogs at Chernobyl are 2nd or even 3rd generation removed from the original survivors, and surely not all are used to humans? But my comment was not meant to be in someway mean...I was just surprised and saddened that these dogs have been trapped in this area for so long and all alone.
I live in India and there are a lot of stray dogs. You would be surprised about how friendly the majority are and how much they love affection! It is quite rare that you get a street dog that is aggressive without reason (e.g they have been abused therefore lash out.)
I remember relocating shortly after this happened..we had to move to Siberia back then and lived there for 10 years...I remember looking at stray animals, asking my grandma if we could take them with ..cats, dogs, birds..😔 it was awful..most painful experience I had to go through, as a 4 yo...devastating to all of us,born in the Soviet union...I pray for all of them, people, animals...and so blessed and fortunate to be here, in the states, and provide a better future for my child.
Live_Wire dogs that were smuggled across were euthanized. I would never ever want to leave any of my animals behind, but I would absolutely hate to see them be put down for no real reason at all.
@@alligaytor4253 Even so, I can't imagine abandoning my pupper in that hellhole with no food or water. I would fight everyone to death to keep my pupper safe.
You have to ask yourself: Humans were just as contaminated, if not more so. Yet they were allowed to leave the area. From a biological and physics standpoint, what difference would it have made if the dogs were allowed to leave, too? None at all.
parrotprodigy productions exactly! It shows how many times pets are considered second class citizens by many! I consider my “Valentino” part of my family, wherever I go, he goes with me! Poor innocent victims, it must be hard to choose who stays or leaves the area.
Ye they have a good life they do not starve just hunt for food and all of that. I think its better to just leave them be they maybe get agressive towards everything. Like wolves
The irony is, living mostly wild and breeding naturally for decades, the Chernobyl dogs are probably genetically healthier than a lot of purebreds in the USA and Europe....
I don't think so. With the amount of dogs that were left in Chernobyl, inbreeding would be rampant. As if inbreeding wasn't bad enough, mutations and diseases would be passed down from from each generation. The same diseases/mutations in genes would be passed around the bloodline. Purebred dogs were originally bred from inbreeding but at least kennels import new blood into their breeding programs to create better bred and healthier dogs. I belive all Chernobyl dogs has at least a certain percent of contamination in them. How is that better than purebreds?
Not True N PM, let's not confuse puppy mills with legitimate purebred breeders, they pay lots of money for health checks to make sure the dogs we get are the healthiest they can be, the dogs of Chernobyl are mostly inbred with all kinds of genetic problems. Stop spreading sh*t you know nothing about. I also bet you've never adopted a dog from a shelter, you're just like most of these overly emotional trolls that come on here lying just to feel better about themselves pretending to be some kind of animal hero. I work at a shelter, I can't stand people like you, running around spreading rumors. I have both purebred labs and labs rescued from the shelter I work at. I love my rescues but my purebred labs are heathier with a sweeter temperament due to only having the best genes bred into them. Ethical breeders don't even make enough money to support what it costs to breed. They do it out of love for the breed, not to get rich. You're brainwashed by watching too many of these videos and listening only to one side of the poor doggy stories letting your emotions get in the way of logical thinking. I bet you're one of those flat-earthers that the rest of the world thinks is weird...

@ChameleoCam Radiation levels in Chernobyl outside of the areas of containment have been low enough to allow this for quite some time. It's long overdue.
@@dr.z1657 but still the government need to be wary, because it is their job, so that the surrounding human population could live safe and sound (just watch some documentation on radiation poisoning that could occur)
@kage no Ishi I am a physician, so I am quite familiar with the effects of radiation and dosimetry. The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone has been accessible to interested parties since 1991 and more recently tourists since the early aughts. As of 2009, radiation levels related to fallout & bioaccumulation in the reactor-adjacent towns of Pripyat and Chernobyl were 1.0-2.0 uSv/hour on average. To put this in perspective, one would need 50-100 hours of exposure at these levels to receive a radiation dose equivalent to a single chest x-ray, or a one-way flight on a commercial airplane. In fact, one could spend 8 hours per day, every day, in these areas and receive a radiation dose no greater than that which every other person on this planet is normally exposed to at sea level during each 24 hour period. While I can't speculate about the actual reason(s) for the 2-3 decade-long delay in rescuing these animals, I can say with a fair degree of confidence that it was not due to dire concerns about radiation exposure that you seem to imply.
I have visited the exclusion zone this winter and brought lots of sausages and treats for the dogs. It was great to see them so happy! Now that's the cutest video on my channel by far :) 🐕🐾

I feel like they were thriving in that area. I know that ur trying to help them but just leave em alone. They are literally free and thriving in a place we’re they don’t bother anyone
They're an invasive species, not meant to live there. They take food that wolves, foxes or other predators should have. They are dangerous both to humans and other animals, and still not meant to be wild because they were bred to live in a home and help humans.
Speaking Truth that’s a good argument but, as you said, they are many generations apart from a family dog and so they have gone wild. It is true that they interacted with humans on the video, but you can’t gauge their happiness level from them getting close to some humans. That would be like saying, a duck is slowly walking towards me and is now a foot from me, damm I have to take this duck home because clearly he’s happier with me. I really like that all of these interesting opinions and points of views have stemmed from my comment. Thank you for refuting my point with a well thought out argument!

They’re not homeless, those dogs been there for generations, surviving just fine without people. They’re obviously hunting and catching their own food. They’ve adapted, I say leave them be.
Even though the number of people is very limited and individually they don't stay long, there's always a steady stream of workers, scientists, and tourists who feed these dogs.

There is goodness in this world still. Thank you to all the kind hearted people who spread love and compassion.
I can't believe how friendly they are with out humans and trusting
This video brightened my day. God bless these sweet dogs and the wonderful people who nurture them.
Even if my house got destroyed I would be the most sad about leaving my dog and cats they are the love of my life and they make me happy
I feel like they were thriving in that area. I know that ur trying to help them but just leave em alone. They are literally free and thriving in a place we’re they don’t bother anyone
I agree. Leave them be, they're happy there, no reason to bring them somewhere else.
They’re happy there because that’s the only life they’ve ever known. they would be happier and healthier in a loving home.
They're an invasive species, not meant to live there. They take food that wolves, foxes or other predators should have. They are dangerous both to humans and other animals, and still not meant to be wild because they were bred to live in a home and help humans.
@@asheremet3652 Agreed
Speaking Truth that’s a good argument but, as you said, they are many generations apart from a family dog and so they have gone wild. It is true that they interacted with humans on the video, but you can’t gauge their happiness level from them getting close to some humans. That would be like saying, a duck is slowly walking towards me and is now a foot from me, damm I have to take this duck home because clearly he’s happier with me. I really like that all of these interesting opinions and points of views have stemmed from my comment. Thank you for refuting my point with a well thought out argument!
Thank you!!! All of you are doing a fantastic job!!! Thank god, there are some good people out there
They should do this EVERYWHERE
Not just Chernobyl
There are actually lots more programs like this all around the world. If more people volunteer, hopefully it can be everywhere!
Idk if I could abandon my dogs
I cant even think about giving them up without crying
Disgusting what we do to this planet and the animals that live here. They would have to shoot me because I am not leaving my animals under any circumstance.
Why if people were allowed to leave did dogs have to stay behind - another stupid exercise of government power just for the sake of it
@@CarolFremel-my4hs they didnt have to leave them behind ...many took em out of there .....most People just didnt have the Power or ways to get them out of there
Thank you for taking such good care of these precious babies.
I salute to these people who are so committed for helping them.
*Greetings from Turkey The Dodo. I'm taking videos of stray cats. I have 235 videos. I take them to the vet and build cat houses :)*
Adorable Cats 😻😻😻 you are wonderful. 😺😺😺 What is you channel called? 😻😻😻

*Adorable Cats ... Just did and subscribed! 😻😸😻*
Ur so cool
That's really cool, dude. 💖✊🏼
Just imagine how cool this would be
Friend: My dog is from petsmart!
You: My dog is from Chernobyl!
It would be cool but if anything, it would be sad.
@@annav.6092 Lmao what is that comment
Anna V. Yeah. ;(
“Its impossible to rescue all of them”
Me : *Hold my subway sandwich*
drama queen much? what's with all the unnecessary spaces between sentences?
nowvoyagerNE “drama queen”
@@nowvoyagerNE woooosh
Thank you so much for helping these animals that didn't have a choice to leave!
Most heartbreaking thing to leave your best friend behind but super glad that you have rescued them and found real good homes
Despite everything, those dogs are gorgeous!
Imagine if we were the dogs... it hurts my heart so much to see them homeless
They’re not homeless, those dogs been there for generations, surviving just fine without people. They’re obviously hunting and catching their own food. They’ve adapted, I say leave them be.
@@notayoutuber1856 true
@@notayoutuber1856, I agree. Which is why the dogs don't look skinny.
Cuties, I hope they get adopted to loving homes !😊❤👍
Gothic Dragon warrior Queen 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Eyy, I'm so glad someone had the idea for a pop up neutering shop
God bless those people who went to selflessly help those dogs.
Absolutely heartbreaking.
Before radioactivity : They were normal dogs ... doggos
After radioactivity: They became ivan dragos
When you said that the pets would need to be left behind, I cried for a whole minutw.
The dodo: Sharing the facts and helping.
Peta: Okay which puppy do we shoot.
who in the right mind would give them acces to firearms?
Why do people kill animals?
Drawing My Life but im a vegetarian
What an incredible story! My prayers are with the rescuers and dogs they save. Most especially, for those dogs left behind.
I can not thank this people enough who brought themselves to save the dogs. God bless you all.
Why do those dogs look ok tho? Like they dont look skinny
Or is that just their fur?
Wolves are native to Ukraine and Belarus, so it is basically their natural habitat.
@@liamwilcox641 ah that's why
Thanks
Even though the number of people is very limited and individually they don't stay long, there's always a steady stream of workers, scientists, and tourists who feed these dogs.
I've heard that lots of wildlife does well in nuclear zones I think when it's low enough I can't remember the exact details of the documentary but it's really interesting stuff
TheAssholeProphet because the planet already has ambient radiation so it takes higher amounts to really cause a bad effect
Listen to Megadeth: Dogs of Chernobyl
Finally a song about those poor souls
Thank u for helping these lovely dogs...
I can't imagine being one of those families who had to leave there animals behind. So glad someone cares.
I would love to work for these dogs if I ever get a chance❤️
Whats intersting to me is that after 30 years and several generations of living ferral these dogs still act like pet dogs.
What a wonderful story. I cried and I'm at work. Lol
You guys are incredible! Thank you so much!
Great video ..made me very happy to see the help for these dogs and 40 puppies rescued...feeding stations etc..thanks to the workers and clean future etc.. God bless you all.loxxxxx
I cant imagine living without my dogs☹😣
The mad scientist in me wants to study the dogs through the generations.
I'm curious that they seem so healthy and normal. I don't see deformities , etc.
@@christineholloway4927 maybe the harsh situation killed off the deformities that were negligible and liable
@@chrono-glitchwaterlily8776 Maybe , but I believe they're seeing similar results with wildlife in the Fukashima area. To me ,my basic nonunderstanding on the subject, STILL I would expect to see deformities , SOMETHING unusual. Not necessarily Thriving, although as we see when you remove the human element things really change .And even though I detest this lockdown (I'm in California) I am savoring clean air , lessening in NOISE pollution, happier wildlife, etc etc. etc.
@@christineholloway4927 Sad thing is, after the quarantine, the bigger populations of thriving wildlife might go down. I dunno about your country, but in others, the government might issue pest control
@@chrono-glitchwaterlily8776 That's a depressing thought.I've argued that point before with people who see wildlife as pests. Sadly when freeways here in California get back to business as usual our pest control method will be back in full swing as well.
and after 30+ years the dogs still realize that humans are their partners in life, and come to them willingly wagging their tails, seeking a rub! why haven't they reverted back to more wolf-like demeanor and appearance?
It take generation to change genetic behaviour. Their first behaviour is sociability wild animals first action is caution.
Bhedraj : exactly. So possibly 10 generations have passed with no change, except possibly only the fittest and strongest have survived. Just a curiosity.
@@patnj7999 30 years is still too low. Also survived dog was due to kindness of workers , I don't think anyone going against wild animals survived.
This touched my soul. I love animals and I am so greatful that there are wonderful people in our world making a difference for those adorable pooches.
That is so awesome. Thank you to all that have helped and cared for them. ❤️❤️❤️
50,000 people used to live here
Now it's a ghost town
And should stay like that forever. This place is a haven for many wild animals who live there in piece without any humans.

A lot if people still live in the exclusion zone. If you google the yt channel bald & bankrupt u will find some
mr fool yo he’s a mad lad
This is great news the dogs finally got help😊
So much for the documentary "Life after People" ;)
LTF Melanie lol! Yeah 😂
please keep doing what you are doing. thanks
This is respect thank you for saving and helping these dogs
I remember when I was a kid there were conspiracy theories about monster dogs/werewolf like creature that attacks villages in russia that were caused by the chernobyl radiation. Good thing the monsters simply took a bath and the radiation was gone. Nice charity work guys and keep saving animal lives. 😊
Radiation doesn't go away. Once you get radiation, you have it forever.
@@johnmarston7606 ...? "Once you get radiation"? Radiation is not a disease, and it is actually part of the world around you no matter where you are. You are emitting radiation right now as we speak. You get a dose of radiation every time you walk outside or eat a banana (yes, bananas emit radiation!).
The government would have had to kill me because I for sure ain't leaving my dog behind 🤷♂️
"Rescuing them was illegal"
*EXCUSE ME WHAT THE FU-*
they could have been radioactive and, gee, they wanted to protect humans from it, not to mention radiation-free wildlife etc. 😑
@@feralbluee most of them weren't radioactive
@@HeadsetHatGuy hi - yeah, know. i was just saying why the gov't made it illegal for a while, Keep safe :)
Exactly What the FU.....
20 million would've been dead
At least half if dogs were released to go to with humans
That dog running as fast as it can to find its owner is heartbreaking.
Terribly sad these animals were abandoned. Bless the workers helping them now!
3:05 Devastating what radiation did to this dog...
He rouse his cuteness level to over 9000
