Can Animals Live In Radiation at Eddie Baynes blog

Can Animals Live In Radiation. In this presentation from our video series “how artificial electromagnetic radiation harms life”, the focus is on plants, and animals from mammals to birds and insects. People, plants and animals are always exposed to some radiation. It comes from the ground beneath us and the space above us. Our bodies are adapted to this radiation, and our cells can handle it. Three decades later, it’s not certain how radiation is affecting wildlife—but it’s clear that animals abound. Humans also carry tiny amounts of radioactive isotopes inside their bodies. Nearly 40 years of research into the contaminated area around chernobyl is shedding light on how some animals and organisms can adapt to ionizing radiation. Tardigrades, also known as water bears, have long. While few people live near chernobyl now, animals living in the vicinity of the accident allow us to study the effects of radiation and gauge recovery from the disaster. Most domestic animals have moved away from the accident, and those deformed farm animals that were born did not reproduce. Prof jim smith, an environmental scientist at the university of portsmouth, has worked with scientists from belarus to monitor some of the mammals that live in the zone, such as wild boar, elk and wolves. Surprisingly, he says, populations seem to have bounced back, both in terms of abundance and diversity.
