Abandoned animals in Fukushima

TOKYO, Japan - In this photo taken in the town of Okuma, Fukushima Prefecture, on May 20, 2012, an ostrich walks by the remains of another that starved to death after they were left abandoned at a breeding facility. In April 2011, the government designated Okuma and other municipalities within a 20-kilometer ring around the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant as a no-go zone. 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.
