In Japan, the farmers refused to euthanize "nuclear cattle"
Director Tamotsu Matsubara in 2011, after hearing about farmers in the area of nuclear exclusion Fukushima who refused to euthanize cows affected by radiation, decided to make a film about them called "Nuclear cattle".

Many families have at least one head, which was damaged from radiation. "Farmers think of these cows as family members. They know that these cows may not be sold, but they don't want to kill them just because they are worth nothing".

for the maintenance of one cow, which is essentially useless, it takes 2 thousand dollars a year. Farmers admitted in the film Matsubara, refused to obey the initial request of the Japanese government about the euthanasia of cows in the exclusion zone.

"These farmers really want to serve a greater purpose for the person and for science," said Matsubara.

We will remind, on March 11, 2011 a strong earthquake caused a 15-Merowe tsunami that caused a nuclear accident. Residents within a radius of 20 km from the facility were forced to leave their homes and leave their property and farm.

Before leaving, some farmers let their cows so they could move freely and survive. 1400, however, died of starvation, another 1,500 head lulled to the government.

Farmers who return two or three times a week, on the former farm - initially kept their cows alive only because of love. But in 2013 they began to conduct experiments. Still, cows living in the exclusion zone showed no signs of leukemia or cancer - the two diseases generally associated with high levels of radiation exposure. Some of them, however, there are white spots on the skin. Their human minders I suspect that these side effects of radiation exposure.

While some farmers have begun to rebuild their lives, starting a new business in decontaminated areas of Fukushima, the campaign for the preservation of life of irradiated cows in the exclusion zone continues.
