Animal rescue in the nuclear evacuation area

Soon after the Fukushima nuclear reactor disaster, the evacuation order was given for people living close to the reactor. Most residents didn't have time to prepare for this resulting in many abandoned pets and farm animals. All of these towns became virtual ghost towns except for all of these animals running free. There was actually footage of livestock running free through residential neighborhoods. Unfortunately there were many pets that died of neglect, but once some of these areas became safe for people to enter for short periods of time, humane society groups initiated missions to retrieve as many pets as possible.
