| Will Cockroaches Inherit The Earth?

In 1962, H. Bentley Glass, a Johns Hopkins geneticist, told the New
York Times that in the event of nuclear war, "the cockroach, a
venerable and hardy species, will take over the habitations of the
foolish humans, and compete only with other insects or bacteria." But
studies over the last half-decade, such as those conducted by the
United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation,
have found that these "other insects" are more likely to reign in the
age after humans; the cockroach might, in fact, be one of the first
bugs to go. More recently, the television show MythBusters tested the
effects of radiation on several kinds of insects (see below) and
discovered that tiny flour beetles were the hardiest -- with some
surviving a dose of 100,000 rads. Organisms that aren't classified as
animals are even better-equipped to handle a nuclear fallout: certain
bacteria, protozoa, mosses, and algae might thrive long after roaches
and flour beetles bite the dust.
