Abstract: ► We censused animals at 1198 sites in Chernobyl and Fukushima varying in level of radiation. ► Abundance of more animals declined with radiation in Chernobyl than in Fukushima. ► The effect of radiation on abundance differed between Chernobyl and Fukushima. ► Effects of radiation on birds and bumblebees did not differ between areas.
