Hyperfixation - The Dogs of Chernobyl: Not Alone and Maybe, Probably Not Mutants?!

Ep. 29 - They were only supposed to be gone for three days...It’s been decades.In this episode, Danny takes us into the wild, emotional, and occasionally bizarre story of the dogs of Chernobyl, from abandoned pets to fully adapted survivors. We’ll talk about how they’ve managed to live in the exclusion zone, the humans who still look after them, and the moment the internet collectively panicked over a pack of mysteriously blue dogs.Sad? Yes. Fascinating? Also yes.*Trigger warning - this episode includes talks of animal death. Please listen with care* **FOLLOW US! We will release a historical video of the two of us that will either be cute or really cringe or maybe both, but only WHEN we reach 500 followers on one platform. So please like and subscribe!
