Pig–boar hybrids are evolving in Fukushima — and rewriting what we know about hybridization
In the evacuation zone in Fukushima, implemented after the nuclear accident in 2011, numerous animals have thrived in the absence of human activity. Even previously domesticated breeds have found a ...
Scientists have just uncovered why populations of radioactive pig-boar hybrids have been flourishing in Fukushima. Since the 2011 nuclear accident, a portion of Fukushima has been abandoned due to its ...
Japanese scientists have finally decoded the genetic mechanisms behind the boom of radioactive pig-boar hybrids in Fukushima’s abandoned evacuation zone. Following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident ...
A new Japanese study has decoded why the population of radioactive pig-boar hybrids is on the rise in Fukushima, the epicentre of the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident.
