Wildlife thrives near Chernobyl Exclusion Zone says researcher
Dr Jim Beasley of the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory notes that mammal populations in the Belarus side of the Exclusion Zone are as abundant as in reserves. Using 30 remote cameras across 94 sites, 14 species were logged with gray wolves and wild boar common. He cites habitat over radiation as key and calls the zone a de facto sanctuary after evacuees left.
