Tonight on PBS, how the radioactive exclusion zone around Chernobyl has become a de-facto wildlife preserve

It should be a preserve! Where else in the world can you find the rare 2-headed reindeer or the ever elusive centipossum?

I believe he's been hanging out at Fukishima this whole time.

In Soviet Яussia, pussy licks you

Get out of here, Stalker.

Is Radioactive Wolves already taken for a band name?

/dibs if not

Yes, human activity is more destructive to wildlife than lethal doses of radiation.

Britney Spear's Speculum: In Soviet Яussia, pussy licks you

That's one way to beat the filter.

/Why does Drew filter out those jokes?

DarnoKonrad: Yes, human activity is more destructive to wildlife than lethal doses of radiation.

Well, chernobyl WAS human activity, and the wildlife there is hardly healthy and thriving despite managing to exist there, from what I've heard.

DarnoKonrad: Yes, human activity is more destructive to wildlife than lethal doses of radiation.

Kind of makes you proud, in a perverse sort of way.

jaylectricity: Also it's on right now so by the time this goes green you'll have already missed it.

/eastern time
//replay at 1:00 AM I believe

I turned on PBS and there's an awesome episode of NOVA on about Jupiter's moon Io. Good enough for me.

Don't feed the Yao-guai.

good question

As somebody who just loaded up S.T.A.L.K.E.R for the first time not even an hour ago, I am getting a kick out of the timing of this thread.

Someone didn't watch the show...
Was pretty interesting, actually.
The focus was the wolves, but they spotlighted several other species that are doing quite well despite the radioactivity.
8+ foot catfishes because they never stop growing and they've not been fished for ~30 yrs. (did you know they keep growing as long as they're alive?)
Peregrine falcons living in the high-rise buildings.
Bison, dormouses (Dormice?), eagles, and more.

/also, my uncle was narrating.

jso2897: simplicimus: The History Channel did this already. Lots of large dogs around, no small dogs left.

Large dogs ate 'em.

Or maybe coyotes, or something larger?

As somebody who just watched Сталкер for the first time not even an hour ago, I am getting a kick out of the timing of this thread.

Good show.

DarnoKonrad: Yes, human activity is more destructive to wildlife than lethal doses of radiation...

...that was caused by human activity.

'wildlife' in this context takes on a whole new meaning.

Can we get a Radioactive Wolves t-shirt?

Devolving_Spud: Can we get a Radioactive Wolves t-shirt?

If it has three wolves, and they're singing to either the Pripyat ferris wheel or the sarcophagus, then yes, you need that shirt.

You can't go there

I can't wait to see the Russian version of the Jackalope. I bet it is full of awesome.

/Off my lawn!

Surool: DarnoKonrad: Yes, human activity is more destructive to wildlife than lethal doses of radiation...

...that was caused by Obama human activity.

FTFY

What are you even talking about, retard?

The Korean DMZ is also a wildlife preserve. Lots of three-legged animals there.

I actually typed "Communists." but the filter replaced it with Obama. Not my fault.

Damn on-again off-again filter, eh?

That needs to be on a t-shirt. It could be the next "Three Wolf Moon," I tell you.

Pravda: Last night the Chernobyl Nuclear Powerstation fulfilled the Five Year Plan of heat energy generation in 4 microseconds

Just watch out for these

From what I hear, the earthworms in that area are 17% larger than normal.

Isn't that a little close to be using a mini-nuke? I mean, sure it's a deathclaw, but you're well within the blast radius there.

Something not meant for this world.

Too weird to live. Too rare to die.

Walker: Also girls on motorcycles like to hang out there.
