This book is the first comprehensive, in-depth English language
study of the animals that were left behind in the exclusion zone in
the wake of the nuclear meltdown of three of the four reactors at
the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station in March 2011,
triggered by the Great East Japan Earthquake of magnitude 9.0.The
Japanese government designated an area of 20-kilometer radius from
the nuclear power station as an exclusion zone and evacuated one
hundred thousand residents, but left companion animals and
livestock animals behind in the radioactive area. Consequently,
about 90 percent of the animals in the exclusion zone died. This
book juxtaposes policies of the Japanese government toward the
animals in Fukushima with the actions of grassroots volunteer
animal rescue groups that filled the void of the government.
