Wildlife Takeover: How Animals Reclaimed Chernobyl | Wildlife Documentary
Where humans move out, wildlife moves in…
What would happen if the world were suddenly without people - if humans vanished off the face of the earth? How would nature react - and how swiftly?
On the edge of Europe, a deserted location reveals the surprising answer. An abandoned village can change in a very short time into a sanctuary for plants, birds and animals. Shy and rare species, some thought to be on the brink of extinction are found in robust good health.
This is Chernobyl, deserted by people after the worst nuclear disaster in history and now reclaimed by a remarkable collection of wildlife and the descendents of pets that were left in the city when the people went away.
This film unmasks the surprising faces of the new inhabitants. In houses where people once lived and laughed, unexpected wildlife is making itself at home. The adventures of a likeable cast of non-human characters give viewers a rare glimpse into an alternative world. Here wild animals face challenges in an environment totally outside their experience, while once-domestic species must rediscover their wild natures within.
Where is this place of abandonment and sanctuary? The location is well known and draws a cloud of uncertainty over the future for these animal characters.

Where humans move out, wildlife moves in. On the edge of Europe, a deserted location reveals the answer. An abandoned village can change in a very short time into a sanctuary for plants, birds and animals.

This is Chernobyl, deserted by people after the worst nuclear disaster in history and now reclaimed by a remarkable collection of wildlife and the descendants of pets that were left behind This film unmasks the surprising faces of the new inhabitants. In houses here people once lived and laughed, left behind treasures of their childhood, unexpected wildlife is making itself a home. It's quite unimaginable what it means to have to flee and leave everything behind. A quantum of solace: the adventures of a rather adorable cast of non-human characters give viewers a rare glimpse into an alternative world. It's cute and creepy at the same time, probably because we know why these animals are here. Anyways, enjoy!
One in Ten thousand will figure out the covid like Propoganda used at chernobyl. 🤣
@Андрей Березин totally agree. Actually, in Ukraine there’s a geographic center of Europe. How come it’s the edge? But the documentary is awesome.
@Curtis Fitts sounds pretty good to me! are animals wrecking the planet??
Y’all really lit a kitten filled barn on fire
Great story telling.
Nice documentary thank you
Probably not the most contaminated... Bikini Atoll and the Marshall Islands are far worse.
That cat is so fluffy and cute!
15:10 Well, at least the worms are happy now. I had that same problem.
24:10 no wonder they made easy prey, they weren't ready. Heard that they burn the house down at the end. Weird. Animals are for sure better off without people.
So let me get this straight. Radioactive cat from a radioactive land gets adopted by normal healthy human and gets himself and everything else he has radioactive.
THANK YOU FOR SUCH A WONDERFUL DOCUMENTARY. YES NATURE ALWAYS TRIUMPHS
SO after all that talk about everything being irradiated your just letting that dude get cancer?
Do dogs still live in Chernobyl
Me when the kittens leaves the home:😬😬😬
Interesting documentary, too bad all of the cat and dog scenes are staged. Maybe the name for this video should be "Odd Days With Odd Cats and Dogs In Odd Place Chernobyl".,.,.,.,.
The camera man just built different 🤷
It's incredible how they got all this footage. They should have chernobel become a national park. It's a wildlife sanctuary.
The bears getting apples out of the tree are just, adorable.
So no dogs? Or any other city animals? Just cats?
👍🏼 Loved it😊
"..She has two kittens left.." **Edits it to make it appear she only had two left** Explanation: Sometimes I saw both striped kittens and sometimes I'd see a striped kitten and a black and white kitten. And, no, the "other striped kitten" was not the mother. I can tell the difference between the kittens and the mama cat. AND SOMETIMES they would just slip in all three and hoped you had forgotten. EDIT: 3:40 Actually I just noticed from the beginning she had four while he said three and there wasn't a black and white one to begin with. Wtheck??
7:42 bear breaks the window 7:52 bear puts the window back
I have no idea where I got 500 years from. 3000 years of inhabitability!? Sheesh!
one of the worst documentaries.... filming crew manipulates things to make it more interesting.
The tittle: Wildlife Takeover: How Animals Reclaimed Chernobyl ... The reality: A brutal life of cat and her kittens trying to survive in wild
Who ever wrote the dialog doesn't know cats. That Feral cat will never be a sweet house cat. At best it will form a cautious detente if the home owner is willing to bribe it with food. Also nature does not care about the individual. As long as a species can successfully reproduce the shortened life span due to radiation exposure is still a success.
There will be a time when the entire world is like this and only the remnants of human existence will remain.
the cat and her kittens playing an important role in this doc.
Humans: * use man made products to make entire areas uninhabitible* Nature: * I shall reclaim my real estate *
Aside from this questionable "documentary" the zone really became a paradise for wildlife.
3kittens again
@25:54 that cat is jumping into a plant that is definitely not catnip!!!!
1 good news in the midst of so much destruction, is the magic of Mother Nature and so hope blooms again, great video👍🖖
50'000 People used to live here. Now it's a ghost town.
Came for documentary, stayed because of comedy.
27:36 RIP
12:42 RIP
Mom Cat: "Here is a dead mouse." Baby Cat: "Oh, thanks for teaching me how to hunt!"
Can we just talk about how AMAZING these shots are?
I'm here to see radioactive cats. If I don't see a radioactive cat I'm gonna be well pissy!
12:34 RIP :(
WOOOOOOW I SEEE HOW IT IS!!! UR JUST GOING TO BURN THERE HOME AND MAKE THEM HOMELESS AGAIN JUST FOR YOUR TV SHOW. ITS A 1/10000 THAT IT WOULD HIT THE HOUSE AND WOOD TAKES IN LIGHTNING AND IT ONLY SOMETHING CONDUCTICLE/ METAL CAN ATRACT LIGHTNING. THEY JUST BURNED THE HOUSE FOR VEIWS.
The nauseating june partially branch because war naturally twist apropos a precious booklet. immense, savory scale
This place is very radioactive and the animals have never seem people The camera crew: 👁️👄👁️
24:10 kittens clearly being pushed through the whole by someone lol
What's most impressive in this video is 35-years old blueberry jam in a jar. Looks like still edible. ...Ok too artificial. They even burned a house.
Loved this documentary.
The meek anteater commonly unlock because drawbridge dolly wave given a wandering gladiolus. mixed, overconfident earth
Even the cats look russian
Cuz they don’t know that the mutation rate is up by 2000%
And end of the story the cat brought the radiation back to the humans 😄
I went from loving the film to hating it after reading the comments. I was admiring how they managed to film the growing up of kitten, though it all looked fishy. The scene with the bear and the cat at 44:10 and 44:40 looks too weird to be happening in the nature.
it looked fishy from start. Any cat that is grown outside, is super fast. Thous cats seems ones that never left house, so they put it down and it stays there. Little kitten are more energetic then older ones. Scenes with bear, seems also fishy could be ones from circus or something.
There's a cat on the thumbnail, upvote.
we are the one tht shud be extinct not nature or else we wont be happy unless we ruin this planet ... this place is an example where we dont venture nature flourishes the best ....
It's Chornobyl, not "Chernobyl"
Erm.. so how did the people film this without exposure to the radiation?
great doc.
5:27 so cute. It looks like he has played this game for hundreds of times
yeah, the animals shown almost look like they were trained/forced to do things by the film crew. the fire in the barn was obvious, as well as the bear closing the door
I hope it stays like that. as a consolation to the earth I think this area should stay forest heavy as global warming increases. I also among many others love to watch nature and would def like to hike out there.
lol
50 mins of “and mother earth reclaimed this place”
this video is beautiful. yet I really wonder how did they manage to film all of this
she may have hunted in the wild for too many times, but at heart, she is still a house cat
So if no human can go there, how did humans document about animals living there? Humans had to be there to record
I guess the cameraman could have saved the kitten from the hawk. Oh well.
whats with this nuclear power thing? they would,nt lie to us would they? nah!
Awesome
wild how the best thing to happen to the nature around Chernobyl was the "worst" things to happen to humans lol
Horrible setup show! Animals were hurt and manipulated in the process of creating this film!
Free cat was enslaved by human...🔚
Wen can see, nature don't need humans.
Reality: Lushy, lively forest full of animals. Narrator: dEaDlY rAdIaTiOn!
Radioactivity? The wolf looks fine to me.
Don't show me cute cats and then take a dark turn. You got 25 minutes out of me, but I stopped the video at the bear approach, and started reading comments. !In my best Greta Thurnberg impersonation: "How DARE you!!"
hahaha boris at 2:12 the slav king
Wonderful movie about nature, how to restore contaminated, Poisoned nature..........
Wow! This was a truly well made documentary! I really enjoyed following the life of the cats. And those annoying bears! Man they were just obnoxious xD Nice to see how nature survives the Human Virus, once left to it's own devices;)
Excellent documentary, thanks for the video 👍
You're very welcome!
If you were able to film the kittens you should have grabbed them and saved them.
I enjoyed it. I wondered if they've figured out the lifespan in Chernobyl compared to the length of an animal out of Chernobyl. Say a wolf (since they've probably studied them the most). Whatever it is if your a wild animal would you rather have 5 years in Chernobyl or 10 out?(with us!
Damm, when us humans aren’t in this world. The world is going to look beautiful as nature takes over once more.
If EVOLUTION is a true thing, then this restore needs millions of years. Do you believe in the father gorilla "darwin"!? I don't.
Wunderschön gefilmte Bilder !
I wanted to watch this video for the cat but it's so annoying to keep hearing that mother nature claimed back blah blah
I would've happily adopted the cat family
1.1k idiots disliked this video for no reason
Interesting subject, piss poor narrative, obviously set up to the fullest, wolves pulling dead rabbits from holes, visible people pushing cats through little holes whilst narrator says "its time for the kittens to explore". And that suspect fire..
Ya, a "scripted documentary"........? I cringed the moment the wolf dug out an already dead rabbit.
At first Holodomor, then Chornobyl. Soviet Union was much worse than nazist Germany
So.... this documentary is amazing. And kind of heartbreaking.
Pretty much all these animals are like me in DayZ... scrounging for hours for food and water and a gun in chernarus
I was into the video till they made the bear unhinge the door. I hope they didn't hurt animals to suit the script.
If this teaches us anything its that nature and animals will be just fine without humans.
There is someone who still lives there. Ho rounded up all the stray cats & takes care of them. Such a loving soul. There is also a cafe/ restaurant for the local people who still are there. Military/ security, etc. ✨
The numerous owl substantively smell because fox prospectively bore along a grouchy unit. level, hard lead
Sadly, the mother cat has lost two kittens. It is the rule of nature, the hunter, and the prey. By the way, this documentary is good.
4:15 "Inside the house, life goes on as normal.." (Cats making scrambled eggs not shown)
God Is Great
I waited for the three headed cat the whole video.
Ok, we get it, everything is radioactive and deadly. So explain how that natural balance is restored.
Thousands of years???? This narrators maths is not very good!
Cats are paid actors!
I wouldn't mind if animals and plants become resistant to radiation due to this.
Amazing how you didn't capture that 'lightning strike' and how it was contained to the barn and didn't go into that grass!
