Chernobyl Worms , Found to Have ‘Super Power’.
Worms living near the notorious nuclear disaster zone appear to have developed an immunity
to radiation, 'The Independent' reports. .
Tiny worms known as nematodes were gathered
by scientists at Chernobyl as part of a new study.
The worms had been exposed to levels of radiation ranging from low levels in cities
to high levels detected in outer space. .
They were taken to New York University
to be studied. .
Chernobyl was a tragedy of
incomprehensible scale, but we still
don’t have a great grasp on the effects
of the disaster on local populations, Dr. Sophia Tintor, lead author of the study, to 'The Daily Mail'.
Did the sudden environmental shift
select for species, or even individuals
within a species, that are naturally
more resistant to ionizing radiation?, Dr. Sophia Tintor, lead author of the study, to 'The Daily Mail'.
20 genetically-different worms were examined.
These worms live everywhere, and they live
quickly, so they go through dozens of
generations of evolution while a typical
vertebrate is still putting on its shoes, Matthew Rockman, a biology professor
at New York University, via 'The Independent'.
Researchers found that the worms' genomes
were not damaged by the radiation.
Such discoveries may help to better understand natural variation,
'The Independent' reports.
Other animals that continue to live at Chernobyl
include bears, wolves, dogs, deer, wild boar, beavers, amphibians and more, according to Mental Floss.

The terror attack at the Crocus City concert hall in Moscow's northern Krasnogorsk suburb, has claimed the lives of more than 60 people and wounded over 100. Islamic State (ISIS) has claimed responsibility for the horrific attack in Russia, which involved gunfire and a grenade explosion. This terror attack came days after Russian President Vladimir Putin cemented his grip on the country in a highly orchestrated electoral landslide. The incident took place just before Soviet-era rock group "Picnic" was to perform at the Crocus City Hall. Video footage of the horrific attack is being shared on social media, in which people can be seen screaming and running amok in a bid to save their lives. In another video, flames and black smoke could be seen rising from the hall. Several world leaders have condemned the terrible incident in Moscow.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said his forces launched an attack that destroyed the largest power-generating plant in the Kyiv region in retaliation for assaults against his own country’s energy sector. Putin insisted that Russia was "obliged" to launch strikes on Ukrainian energy sites. The repeated attacks on civilian power stations have sparked outrage from Ukraine's allies. Speaking to Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, President Putin argued that the attacks were only in response to Kyiv's attacks on Russian targets.
