Chernobyl Exclusion Zone: Fauna Restoration
In the company of Przhevalsky’s horses, which are captured daily by camera traps in the exclusion zone, biologists noticed a domestic horse with a foal. Such a marriage is not recognized by people, but nature has its own laws. In addition, the appearance of a domestic horse in a territory contaminated with radiation testifies to the restoration of the Chernobyl ecosystem and adjacent territories.

At the beginning of the 2018 year, scientists managed to fix the 48 horses of Przewalski. It is possible that the number of wild animals in 2-3 times larger. According to the head of the Chernobyl reserve, Denis Vishnevsky, horses look healthy, with no signs of a radioactive disease. Given the fact that Przhevalsky’s horses disappeared from their natural habitat, there are no mysteries in the appearance of animals in the exclusion zone. Horses were brought to Chernobyl from Askania-Nova Nature Reserve in the 1998 year.
