俄勒冈州纽波特市（Newport）是美国西岸着名的渔港，其海滩亦向来是市民的休憩热点，但自从日本大地震引发海啸和核灾难后，前往当地的人大大减少。不仅渔民担忧受核灾难牵连，居民亦报称海面出现不寻常的「稠密漩涡」等令人恐惧现象，更不时有狗在海滩觅食后生怪病或发狂。居民担心，这些狗进食了受辐射污染的死鱼。

When plutonium decays, it emits what is known as an alpha particle, a relatively big particle that carries a lot of energy. When an alpha particle hits body tissue, it can damage the DNA of a cell and lead to a cancer-causing mutation.

Plutonium also breaks down very slowly, so it remains dangerously radioactive for hundreds of thousands of years.
