            TOKYO, Japan - In this photo taken in the town of Tomioka, Fukushima Prefecture, on June 23, 2012, Naoto Matsumura, who cares for cattle abandoned by their owners, relaxes at his home after finishing his day's work of tending to pets and livestock.

The plant's reactors suffered meltdowns after being struck by the March 11, 2011, earthquake and tsunami, spewing massive amounts of radioactive materials into the air and sea.
