I am _very_ dubious of a game where this would be even a potential threat to PCs where PCs are not effectively Supers in their own right.

The reaction of a 1950's government to such a thing I would judge to be "napalm its' habitat into non-existence". An IQ 3 species is not too likely to adapt to this. Unless its' IQ isn't "really" 3.

Anyway, this is too much of a physical threat to promote a general sort of " paranoia and gun-toting but people try to get one with their lives" sort of atmosphere that I thought you might be going for.
