    Thank God someone is doing something about the dogs!!! This is something that I've worried about for the last 30 years. I was 34 at the time of Chernobyl andwhen I heard people weren't allowed to take their pets with them. I felt as though so if people could be washed down to disperse the radiation why couldn't there pets?

      Yes it is very heartbreaking. I'm truly grateful of these amazing people (angels, really) who helped the poor dogs of Chernobyl.
      It is mentioned that you can wash the contamination away from the dogs, the way you wash the humans. But at an event of disaster, I think to the government, pets are a luxury they can't afford. Resources are very limited. If pets are brought along, special team must be made to deal with them, wash the radiation away, make sure they are healthy and without disease contagious to humans. Extra food must be procured for them, hygiene system, etc. it is simply too much, and they can't afford that.
      So it is sad, and I hope it will never happen again. But at that time, it was inescapable, having to leave their beloved pets behind.

      @1
      I am sorry, but it was my understanding that cats (and I assumed, incorrectly?) and dogs would be afraid and/or standoffish without near constant human interaction or presence. Pretty much all of the dogs at Chernobyl are 2nd or even 3rd generation removed from the original survivors, and surely not all are used to humans?
      But my comment was not meant to be in someway mean...I was just surprised and saddened that these dogs have been trapped in this area for so long and all alone.

    The irony is, living mostly wild and breeding naturally for decades, the Chernobyl dogs are probably genetically healthier than a lot of purebreds in the USA and Europe....

    • @renel.3881
      @renel.3881 4 года назад +272

      I don't think so. With the amount of dogs that were left in Chernobyl, inbreeding would be rampant. As if inbreeding wasn't bad enough, mutations and diseases would be passed down from from each generation. The same diseases/mutations in genes would be passed around the bloodline. Purebred dogs were originally bred from inbreeding but at least kennels import new blood into their breeding programs to create better bred and healthier dogs. I belive all Chernobyl dogs has at least a certain percent of contamination in them. How is that better than purebreds?

    • @FarmerFpv
      @FarmerFpv 4 года назад +117

      Not True N PM, let's not confuse puppy mills with legitimate purebred breeders, they pay lots of money for health checks to make sure the dogs we get are the healthiest they can be, the dogs of Chernobyl are mostly inbred with all kinds of genetic problems. Stop spreading sh*t you know nothing about. I also bet you've never adopted a dog from a shelter, you're just like most of these overly emotional trolls that come on here lying just to feel better about themselves pretending to be some kind of animal hero. I work at a shelter, I can't stand people like you, running around spreading rumors. I have both purebred labs and labs rescued from the shelter I work at. I love my rescues but my purebred labs are heathier with a sweeter temperament due to only having the best genes bred into them. Ethical breeders don't even make enough money to support what it costs to breed. They do it out of love for the breed, not to get rich. You're brainwashed by watching too many of these videos and listening only to one side of the poor doggy stories letting your emotions get in the way of logical thinking. I bet you're one of those flat-earthers that the rest of the world thinks is weird...

      @kage no Ishi I am a physician, so I am quite familiar with the effects of radiation and dosimetry. The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone has been accessible to interested parties since 1991 and more recently tourists since the early aughts. As of 2009, radiation levels related to fallout & bioaccumulation in the reactor-adjacent towns of Pripyat and Chernobyl were 1.0-2.0 uSv/hour on average. To put this in perspective, one would need 50-100 hours of exposure at these levels to receive a radiation dose equivalent to a single chest x-ray, or a one-way flight on a commercial airplane. In fact, one could spend 8 hours per day, every day, in these areas and receive a radiation dose no greater than that which every other person on this planet is normally exposed to at sea level during each 24 hour period. While I can't speculate about the actual reason(s) for the 2-3 decade-long delay in rescuing these animals, I can say with a fair degree of confidence that it was not due to dire concerns about radiation exposure that you seem to imply.

      Speaking Truth that’s a good argument but, as you said, they are many generations apart from a family dog and so they have gone wild. It is true that they interacted with humans on the video, but you can’t gauge their happiness level from them getting close to some humans. That would be like saying, a duck is slowly walking towards me and is now a foot from me, damm I have to take this duck home because clearly he’s happier with me. I really like that all of these interesting opinions and points of views have stemmed from my comment. Thank you for refuting my point with a well thought out argument!
