Scientists collected blood samples from 116 stray dogs living in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone ( CEZ ) They found two populations that were genetically distinct from other dogs in the surrounding area.

This suggests they have adapted to withstand long-term exposure to this toxic environment.

Understanding how the dogs developed their genetic superpower could help better understand the health impacts of living in a highly toxic environment with multiple environmental hazards, not just dogs but humans.
