The wolves are exposed to cancer-causing radiation as they roam the wastelands of the abandoned city - with researchers finding part of their genetic information seems resilient to increased risk of the disease.
Nah, just filters out those that are weaker/less resistant.
Everyone has radiation resistance. Our DNAs repair mechanisms protect us from DNA errors from all sorts of sources.
A region where high radiation exposure becomes daily life simply makes the this trait the dominant one for animals to live long enough to procreate, meaning the ones with the best mechanisms will survive, the others die.
So radiation does give you powers ?
Well… radiations selects for powers.

The viltrumite way ?
It’s a bit tautological. Yes, you get powers, but only “radiation resistance” power from radiation.
