Radioactive boars found in Czech 31yrs after Chernobyl leak
Radioactive wild boars have been detected in the forests of Czech Republic, around 31 years after the Chernobyl disaster, veterinary officials said. The animals became radioactive after eating mushrooms that absorbed high levels of radioactive isotopes, officials added. At least 614 wild boars were inspected from 2014 to 2016, and 47% of them were found to be radioactive.
