They probably do have a higher incidence of birth defects and cancer than a population outside a radioactive zone, but we don't know. The long-term studies of the area are just starting. What we do know is that the Exclusion Zone isn't a total dead zone. It sure as hell isn't S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
You can't possibly know about the lifespan of creatures within the Zone because the scientists studying the Zone do not know.
Yes. They would not be radioactive.  |
If you love The Exclusion Zone so much why don't you just marry it then?
