Since the human evacuation of the area around the nuclear power station following the Chernobyl disaster of 26/4/1986 it seems that birds and animals that had been absent for many years have resettled. These include wolves, black storks, frogs and moose. You can listen to some powerful and moving sound recordings from the Chernobyl area of frogs and birds by sound artist Peter Cusack, part of a series of works entitled 'Sounds from Dangerous Places, Chernobyl'
