Chernobyl's Radioactive Wild Boar Paradox

Scientists have been studying the effects of radiation on ecosystems, particularly focusing on the wild boar paradox near Chernobyl. Despite decreasing contamination levels, wild boars remain radioactive due to cesium from past nuclear tests and Chernobyl. The study reveals that mushrooms, which boars consume, absorb deep-seated radiation, explaining the anomaly. This research aids in understanding radiation's long-term ecological impact.
