There is no mysterium here. The radioactive levels of Chernobyl nowadays are simply so low that it has almost no impact on organisms. But we humans believe that even the slightest elevated level of radioactivity is lethal. We tend to exaggerate the danger enormously, and of course it goes back to pure propaganda from environmentalists and peace activists. And once everyone believe a politically charged myth, even experts and scientists becomes afraid to tell the truth.

In other words, we can give ourselves a "cancer vaccination" by exposing ourselves to high radiation?

I believe there's a city in Turkey (maybe Canakkale, I'm not sure) where there's a relatively high level of natural background radiation due to isotopes in the local rock. It's nowhere near the level of Chernobyl, but the fact that people have lived there for hundreds of years and don't seem to have higher rates of cancer would seem to support the idea that the body can adapt to low levels of radiation.

It only takes two to three generations for selection pressure to have a major impact.

off course they would, those that weren't just died of cancer.

I worked in occupational radiation protection for many years (changed my career 20 years ago). There are very good records of ionizing radiation dose and long term health for a large population of humans. Long story short, the risks from chronic ionizing radiation exposure are low (driving to work every day is a much larger risk for most). And it is difficult to quantify exactly what the long-term risk of ionizing creation exposure actually is. Consequently, It doesn't surprise me that identifying ionizing exposure risk in a small group of wolves would be a difficult task. Even in an area where the dose rates are well above average.

Well, it's not like there is a Western diet and pervasive exposure to methylation dysrupting pesticides, flame retardants, and carpet glues around Chernobyl.

Very interesting. Thank you 😊

excellent evaluation

I often wondered whether the high number of tandem repeats in canids aided them in resisting radiation based mutations.

''routine testing'' yeah about that... probably not the greatest way to frame negligent incompetence, when you're an advocate of nuclear energy.

Most animals don't live long enough to get cancer.

And who are you, the proud wolf said your Sievert rates so low? Only a man in a Hazmat suit emits that greenish glow? A coat of gold, a coat of lead Your lying draws out my claws. And mine are long and glow at night Your survival rate now floors. And so they joked, until of note: their rotting face and ears But now the rains fall in through holes And new neutrino spikes appear. And who are you, proud Alpha wolf said I'd pack my shit, and go. We're cancer proof and thrive again Thanks for that old light show.

Actually it goes back to the fossil fuel industry. They were very scared of fission power, especially since there was very little for them to profit off of once they were built so they funded outlets like the Sierra Club and other greed activist groups in the 1970s to turn their stance against fission power. Most of the cost for fission power goes to trade unions and inspectors/regulators during their construction. After that they are essentially low cost, it's the utilities who run them that get the profit margins. A typical 1 GW fission plant in USA averages about $1million pure profit a day in regulated markets that average $0.15 to $0.18 a kW-hr (which are rates people in unregulated markets would love!). This is a reason a lot of data centers and other power hungry industries are located in regulated markets (using fission, combined cycle) or areas with dirt cheap reliable baseload power (hydro & geothermal).

Higher incidence of parasites could play a part.

There will soon be a Godzilla wolf.

Naturally selected cancer resistant genomes, so , hear me out, what if hypothetically we take a culture of pluripotent stem cells then massively bombard them with radiation until something like 10 million generations of cell has passed, sequence the genomes of remaining cells and compare to the 1st generations, identify the differences , then CRISPR in the anti-cancer naturally selected genome variations

Then there is hope for us, after all! 😅

- We live in the same climate as it was 5 million years ago and the cancer will go away - I have an explanation regarding the cause of the climate change and global warming, it is the travel of the universe to the deep past since May 10, 2010. Each day starting May 10, 2010 takes us 1000 years to the past of the universe. Today April 26, 2024 the state of our universe is the same as it was 5 million and 100 thousand years ago. On october 13, 2026 the state of our universe will be at the point 6 million years in the past. On june 04, 2051 the state of our universe will be at the point 15 million years in the past. On june 28, 2092 the state of our universe will be at the point 30 million years in the past. On april 02, 2147 the state of our universe will be at the point 50 million years in the past. The result is that the universe is heading back to the point where it started and today we live in the same climate as it was 5 million years ago. Anyone who does not believe that the climate changed for the reason I mentioned should wait for cancer to disappear very soon because of this reverse movement, I will explain: the human body's immune system will be stimulated, activated and stronger as a result of this reverse process, which results in the disappearance of the cancer.

No way ghouls are real

There's something that terminates the DNA molecules, i forget what they are called, but there's a limited number of them, if there's too many of them then animals can get cancer, if there's too few of them animals age faster and die younger, without having watched the video it would seem likely that the number of these terminators have been reduced to mitigate the higher chance of cancer. Let's see if i'm right. Yes it's telomeres, that's the key here, stop fannying around with white blood cells and look at the telomeres, my bet would be that they are shorter.

I only see 2, you feeling OK? No sense in alarmism over nuclear accident that leave the ground untenable for 10,000 years... is that really "alarmism"? Do you personally gain financially from nuclear power? How about personally suffer from cancer caused by an unalarming catastrophe? Nothing to see here boys, just smile and wave... wtf. Be alarmed. Fallout radiation should be a concern of every human. 4 eyed wolves being the least of our concerns. I mean the rods bouncing on the ocean floor from Fukushima are nothing to worry your peasant selves with... it's fine. Or... is it? You aren't affected. If you were? No alarm seen here. Frankly the premise of this video actually dulls the sting of the inherent danger doesn't it? Wolves AREN'T sick. Meaning NOT alarming, rather maybe not as bad as originally fearmongered about? Let's agree that before, during and post Chernobyl... humanity had/has no real clue what will/could happen. We're learning. Look here, wolves see to be preliminarily less affected by cancer. Of course scientists like yourself will already know all there is to worry or not worry about right? So they knew about the wolves? Hmm...

And the glowing prey animal chased by the wolf. I was just watching a video about the five physics jokes - but who says physicists (or their media team) don't have a sense of humour.

Maybe it’s because they are carnivores. 🤷‍♂️

Just say your "background" is in physics. I get it, your smart

There's nothing special about the wolves, humans have been living and working in the exclusion zone since the day of the accident without harm. The radiation levels near Fukushima are similar to those near Chernobyl and many people have moved back into those areas without any harm. Chernobyl and Fukushima never needed to be evacuated and those evacuations cause far more harm than the radiation ever could. Fear and ignorance are far more dangerous than radiation.

Cancer is overrated

If you would educate yourself better, instead of just parroting mainstream propaganda lies about radiation, you would understand it better.

Putin's army could stay in Chernobyl only for 1 month back in 2022. The they left. So wolves are stronger that Putin soldiers are.
