Wild boars near Allersberg, Bavaria. Decades after the Chernobyl nuclear accident, wild boars around Germany and Austria are still highly radioactive even though other animals are not. In a new study, scientists discovered that the high radiation levels come from nuclear weapon testing in the 1960s, not from Chernobyl.
That actually doesn’t save us a click. Other animals would have elevated levels too if it was just from testing in the 60’s. The real saved you a click is that the boars eat a particular truffle that holds onto radiation at much higher levels than other foliage in the area, and other animals don’t eat those truffles.
