Bizarre changes in animal behaviour and appearance have unfolded at the highly reactive Chernobyl site in the 40 years since the disaster - including 'evolving' dogs and cancer-resistant wolves

Chernobyl's blue dogs spark radiation theories, but expert Timothy Mousseau shares "likely" cause behind colorful canines spotted roaming exclusion zone.

The protective shelter built to contain radioactive material from the 1986 Chernobyl disaster can no longer block radiation after an attack by Russia. A suspected Russian drone hit the power plant in northern Ukraine earlier this year, starting a fire in the outer cladding of the massive steel structure.

In 1986, an explosion at Reactor 4 in Chernobyl created one of Earth's most dangerous places. Scientists believed nothing could survive there for centuries. However, decades later, researchers found something remarkable: a dark fungus not only living in the radioactive ruins but actually growing stronger in radiation.
