[lbo-talk] Chernobyl's silent graveyards

[Steven L. Robinson]

But see  the Chernobyl Paradox by Mary Mycio in the most current print edition of Natural History (but not on the magazine's web site).  In that piece Mycio describes how nature has prospered in the region around Chernobyl, which is de facto the largest human free area in Europe.  All of the large species seem to be prospering (except bears).Wild horses have been reintroduced. SR
