I cover day 3 and day 4 of the 2020 Species Count Research Expedition launched due to radioactive fallout in Canada after nuclear meltdowns in Japans Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power plants fatally contaminated North America ecosystem . I am doing a 1600 km species count and so far as we can tell Fukushima is a extinction level event .
The count is as follows 10 rabbits , 3 grouse , 2 ran in woods before I could get a picture , one young grouse refused to let me pass for around 4 minutes , I got great pictures and videos . In the last 4 days and passing 100s of empty ponds I have finally seen a fresh water bird . it was a single Loon in a pond , the loneliest loon on the planet . One thing that is striking is there was no adult spiders or spider webs to be found in the thick woods but I did find several baby spiders lingering in my gear and tent , last night 3 moths of different colors showed up under my bright light and hung out .
My body feels like it been dropped from a plane , every thing hurts . right now I feel its very difficult to continue like this but I will keep going . I should of pushed for a older motor home because it is so time consuming to set everything up constantly and trying to find a decent spot to camp is proving impossible .
The 8 million species are more important right now so I will suffer through it the best I can . One has to wonder if a university was to do this would they suffer like me or would they have ample manpower funding and resources ? I think the planet and whats left of the 8 million species after Fukushima radioactive death plumes deserves better resources than I can provide but it will have to do until humanity awakens .
Take care every one i,ll keep you updated , but I have to admit I am shocked the world doesn,t care that the birds and other species are missing shows the media university's govt betrayal is brutally effective , its heartbreaking .
