When clouds of radiation began streaming into the air around the Fukushima nuclear plant, 160,000 residents were told to simply cut and run.
However, it seems only 159,998 residents listened. The other two Naoto Matsumura and Sakae Kato remained. Evidently, the city possessed not one, but two men whose love of animals cracked through their innate sense of self-preservation; men who would give up everything rather than consigning other beings to starvation.
Living within the 12.5-mile exclusion zone around the damaged reactor, the two men, unrelated to one another, both live alone while taking care of dozens of stray animals that were left behind when the evacuation order was given.
