The area around Chernobyl has been much studied. It is a bit of a giant laboratory for the effects of radiation on the environment and the animals in particular.
After 30 years the wildlife is still thriving in the exclusion zone. It seems that humans were harder on wildlife that radiation.

Species that were almost extinct now live and grow in the area. No doubt radiation has an effect on the individual animal, but the populations on the whole are thriving.
I wonder how Fukushima is doing?
