Hi,
I would like to see the full video on the Chernobyl wolves………..when will it be availkable???
Click on the “Full Episode” link on the right side of the page and you can watch it right now.
It is very likely they are tinted by some weird Chernobylesque isotope; if this is so and I stand correct, what about the rest of local and surrounding biota? Isn’t this an indicative that humanity by and large may be running serious peril, considering that there are nuclear power stations almost all over the World? Answer this fast: are we to survive such monstrosity which are nuclear power stations and the like, commited in the name of sciences and of civilization? Yes or no?
