Grizzly returns to Chernobyl for the first time in 100 years
The Chernobyl nuclear disaster in the former Soviet Union â€" current Ukraine â€" created an exclusion zone that remains to the present day and will continue for many decades. The tragedy, which occurred on April 26, 1986, continues to be considered the worst ever in terms of radioactivity released, but the truth is, ironically, she has in recent years created a wildlife sanctuary.According to the project TREE (TRansfer, Exposure, Effects), researching the effects of radioactivity, have been seen a Grizzly in the area for the first time in a century. The bear was photographed by an automatic camera placed in the exclusion zone and joins the other animals already found: a Lynx, Grey Wolves, horses, boars, deer, otters and other animals."We are working on a theory that, if we take away the human element out of the equation, the animals have a clear path on exclusion zone and get away from the pressure and dangers presented by the people", explained to the BBC the project leader, Mike Wood, University of Salford.The Chernobyl disaster is considered the worst nuclear power plant accident in history, in terms of cost and victims, and the only one of two awarded the seven-level International Nuclear Event Scale.500 000 people were involved to contain the contamination and a total of €13,8 billion. The TREE project aims to "reduce uncertainty in projected risk to humans and wildlife associated with exposure to radioactivity and reduce unnecessary conservationism". The TREE put 15 camera on each of the affected areas, to try to figure out if there is wildlife on the site and what their behavior.Although the first discoveries have already been reported, the first part of the project just ends at the end of 2015. . fancybox-wrap {position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; z-index: 8020; }. fancybox-skin {position: relative; /* margin-top: 20px! important; */backgroun d: #222222; color: #74b32e; text-shadow: none; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; }. fancybox-opened {z-index: 8030;} . fancybox-opened. fancybox-skin {-webkit-box-shadow: 0 10px 25px rgba (0, 0, 0, 0.5); -moz-box-shadow: 0 10px 25px rgba (0, 0, 0, 0.5); box-shadow: 0 10px 25px rgba (0, 0, 0, 0.5); }. fancybox-outer,. fancybox-inner {position: relative;} . fancybox-inner {overflow: hidden;} . fancybox-type-iframe. fancybox-inner {-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;} . fancybox-close {backgroun d: url('wp-content/themes/codistage/styles/fancybox/exit.png') no-repeat; width: 25px; height: 25px; float: right; margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 5px; }/*. ng-gallery-image img {width: 565px; height: 393px;}*/Chernobyl: um santuário de vida selvagem 1 of 3 jQuery (document). ready (function ($) {var thumbContainerWidth = 0, thumbs = Array (), selectedIndex = 1, thumbIndex = 1, imageOffset = 7; $ ('. ng-gallery-thumbnail-box '). each (function () {thumbs.push($(this)); }); /* thumbnail navigation */$ ('. ng-greensavers-thumb-next '). unbind (). bind (' click ', function (e) {e.preventDefault(); if (thumbIndex < == (thumbs.length-imageOffset)) {$ ('. ng-thumbnails-container '). stop (). animate ({left:-$ (thumbs [thumbIndex]). position (). left}); thumbindex + +; } }); $ ('. ng-greensavers-thumb-prev '). unbind (). bind (' click ', function (e) {e.preventDefault(); if (thumbIndex > 1) {$ ('. ng-thumbnails-container '). stop (). animate ({left: $ ('. ng-thumbnails-container '). position (). left + ($ (thumbs [thumbIndex-1]). position (). left-$ (thumbs [thumbIndex-2]). position (). left)}); thumbindex--; } }); $ (window). load (function () {/* set thumbnail container width */$ ('. ng-gallery-thumbnail '). each (function () {thumbContainerWidth = thumbContainerWidth + $ (this). width () + 10; }); $ ('. ng-thumbnails-container '). width (thumbContainerWidth); }); });
