In the absence of people, the Chornobyl zone has become home for a huge number of wild animals. Today you can see moose, wild Przewalski horses, deer, wolves, foxes, raccoons and wild boars in the forests or on the streets of abandoned settlements. Here live lynxes, bisons, bears, black storks and white eagles, badgers, swans, owls and many others.
Animals in Chornobyl are not afraid of people, so they often come quite close to them.
The best time to observe the wildlife of the Chornobyl zone is early spring and late autumn, when there is no greenery and animals are seen better.
