30 Years After Chernobyl, Nature Is Thriving | National Geographic (VIDEO)
Thirty years after the Chernobyl nuclear accident, people are still restricted from resettling the evacuation area, dubbed the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. The absence of humans has created an opportunity for nature to thrive. A new study using remote cameras reveals abundant populations of gray wolves, raccoon dogs, and red fox.

Whats interesting are these animals have adapted to the radiation in a way!!!!!!! They'll still suffer a terrible premature death but their descendants will slowly build more immunity! Nature is beautiful.
Espero que no vuelvan mas a vivir la gente y deje ese lugar para los animales,,,espero que no vayan los cazadores a matarlos
Yeah the animals are bouncing back but how many birth defects tumors and deaths?
we are literally worse to the planet than extreme radiation, its devastating
Crazy to think that think that this part of the country is inhabitable to humans for the next 20,000 years
Radioactive good bois
Nuke
Just do it…
Good news happen when human get kicked out. No plastic, no toxic chemicals, no noise, no garbage.
All hail the mighty and adaptable mother nature & planet earth! Go captain planet! Awesome animals & plants proving to us that even nuclear disasters can be adapted and overcome with time.
Money & economy & technology all means very little compared to just "simple survival"!
We are not necessary for the planet. We do not provide. We take. We consume only. Thus is our legacy.
The animals adapted.
We did not.
Ever since humans have stepped foot on this world, it has been deteriorating since. We'll be the end of us.
I wonder how animals have evolved and if some humans stayed would they have eventually adapted scary
These creatures require our absence to survive, not our help. And if we could only step aside and trust in nature, life will find a way.

War war never changes
That is its benefit, to make it habitable for organisms except human
Animals adapt
nature adopts and recovers, each generation of plants/animals will be healthier then the last , removing the radiation caused harm

"Live always finds a way"
I suppose this proves that nature is wise bc after the humans left, nature started to take back the land. This shows that it can be heal, but we humans need to learn the lesson
