Radioactive rabbit found on Handford nuclear site
A radioactive rabbit was trapped on the Hanford nuclear reservation and later disposed of as radioactive waste after ingesting cesium. This is not the first time radioactive wildlife has been discovered at Hanford. In fact, humorous columnist, Dave Barry, wrote two memorable columns - first about radioactive ants, flies and gnats at the Hanford site and then a tongue-in-cheek "apology" after criticism in the local press.
