No kidding Rats are. That would help keep the population down, and if it got to the point where they were relying decisively on cannibalism population collapse would happen within a generation or two and the end of the Plague as a major threat could be at hand. The creators even mentioned of the Great Fire of London helped end the seasonal Bubonic Plague outbreaks by burning the slums and the rat populations down to manageable levels.

As for that, perhaps but that would raise the question of whether Chaos would really be as negative as it's portrayed ingame (another issue I have with the game...).
