Chernobyl Made Monsters?

The Christian Science Monitor stated yesterday on their website that wildlife is thriving in the landscape around Chernobyl. I think this is a fun idea. I'm sure there's plenty of wildlife there and the animals that stay there long term will probably have health issues and may actually die at an early age because of the radiation.

I like to think about this place as a thriving zone for mutations. Out of the thousands of animals that live in this area, how many of them will grow into a new creature, a new species, maybe even one that could surpass us on the food chain.

What would happen if we went into this area to see if humans could live there again and are met with a new kind of life form who did not want to give up their land. Maybe they are telekinetic and can throw things at us with their minds. Maybe they are stronger than us and can withstand bullets. Maybe they can shoot lasers from their eyes. The story ideas are endless.
