Radioactive Rabbit Dung

"A government contractor at Hanford, in south-central Washington State, just spent a week mapping radioactive rabbit feces with detectors mounted on a helicopter flying 50 feet over the desert scrub."

Although the ramifications are dire, this is the funniest sentence I have ever read. Read the rest of the article at http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/15/science/earth/15rabbit.html?ref=science

I wonder how far the radioactivity travels, and if it can enter the systems of people living near the area...
