Mark and List,
Part of the Brahin strewn field does indeed overlap with the Chernobal
nuclear accident site, according to my good friend Ivan Koutyrev.

While talking about meteorite hunting one night, Ivan told me and my half
brother John Blennert, that he saw several four foot tall rabbits in the
Brahin area. I think the radio activity might have affected the wildlife,
but I doubt it caused any problems with the pallasite.

Cheers,

John
