Nature tourism is a future draw for what now are the largest nature reserves of Belarus and Ukraine. Closed to human habitation for three decades, the zone now “is inhabited by brown bears, bisons, wolves, lynxes, Przewalski horses, and more than 200 bird species,” Germán Orizaola, a researcher from the Universidad de Oviedo, writes an article for The Conservation, ‘Chernobyl has become a refuge for wildlife 33 years after the nuclear accident.” “[This] suggests that the pressures generated by human activities would be more negative for wildlife in the medium-term than a nuclear accident – a quite revealing vision of the human impact on the natural environment.”
