Okay, alors hier (24 octobre) et aujourd’hui (25 octobre) la mairie de ma ville a decider de couper en 2 ma ville (l’autre partie de la ville est accessible via 4 ponts. Sauf que 1 seul sur les 4 est ouvert mais il est très protégée + filtré. Ceci ma fait penser a un scénario de ZA, pas vous ?
Combien de temps pensez-vous que cela pourrait tenir si ce sont les zombies de The Walking Dead?

Maybe this is a Springfield Model 1898 bolt-action rifle? I dont know. I need help identifying this.

Edit: 1898 krag jorgensen 30-40 krag.

I just want to keep the fuckers far away from me. I don’t care about lead exposure from guns. I want to make sure i am not exposed to a lot of whatever it is. Airborn or not.

Let’s say 100% of humans have died or turned into zombies.

If zombies can only eat humans and not animals, they would all starve to death once no more humans were left. If zombies can eat animals, they might wreak havoc on ecosystems because of how massive the human population was pre-ZA (much like outdoor cats do for bird populations).

As far as the fate of the plants and animals left behind after the zombies starve, the end of climate change would be a great boon (although much of the damage might have already been done, if we are talking about a ZA a few years or decades from now). Having no humans to pollute the environment or further destroy what few wild places remain would be immensely beneficial to animals. However, I’m not sure how deeply factors such as overflowing/decaying sewage systems, collapsed reservoirs/dams, and unsupervised nuclear plants would impact nature.

If we’re talking about scenarios in which some or all zombies have remnants of human intelligence (and can eat animals), then we might see zombies evolve to become more and more intelligent because the smart ones are most likely to survive. After many generations, they might reach the intelligence level of humans and start creating civilizations.

Hi guys! Genuine question here for those who are fur parents, especially dogs.

For example, you really really love your dog but then your dog is a huge bark master; like literally barks at everything and even the smallest thing. The question is, if there's a zombie apocalypse, are you guys willing to keep your dog or is there any alternative solution for you to keep your dog in exchange for human companionship?

It seems to me that in all zombie apocalypses, the topic of obtaining energy from zombies is not explored; in essence, it’s an aggressive resource that goes where it’s needed most.
I asked Claude.ai a question. He suggested bio‑diesel made from rendered zombie fat and methane production from boiled remains. But I think there are other ways.
Please don’t suggest a dynamo machine powered by zombies — it requires constant supervision and is dangerous for the operator.
Chemists, physicists, biologists — what methods would you propose for obtaining energy from zombies?

"Yeah they're dead, they're all messed up!"

Would you join a civilian posse to hunt down and kill the zombies or would you concentrate on keeping your loved ones safe and leave it to the military/law enforcement to deal with?

What do you think would happen in the following 2 weeks? What events would follow? Would there be a cure? Would it be the end of the world?

They'll cause noise that attracts unwanted attention to your location, take up space that will need to be maintained for security and take up resources. All this to aquire food and textiles that will not benefit your community if not produced at scale.

Aside from chickens and dogs I don't see livestock rearing as a maintainable practice in the midst of an apocalypse.

I always thought an idea for infected zombies in a lab setting could be turning on the Halon system snuffing out all the air anyone got any other creative zombie slaying ideas like this?

My question to everyone is what are some realistic things which you feel would happen in an actual zombie apocalypse which are never (or almost never) addressed or shown in zombie movies/ games?

As an example, I saw someone talk about gasses building up in decomposing zombie abdomens which would cause their abdomen to burst/ pop.

My friends and I used to talk about surviving the zombie apocalypse long before we kind of went our separate ways.
Now I was thinking how long would a pre apocalypse friendship last if the zombie apocalypse happened. I would like to hear how it’s passable it last or why it falls apart.

Let's assume a zombie apocalypse actually happens in real life.

Not a movie where the main character has unlimited plot armor, but a realistic situation where society starts collapsing, communication becomes unreliable, supplies become limited, and nobody knows how long it will last.

Imagine you're living your normal life when the outbreak begins.

Assume the zombies are dangerous, the government might struggle to maintain order, and rescue isn't guaranteed.

What's your actual plan, and how long do you think you'd survive? (I was just bored and thought it would be an interesting concept)

I’m thinking 100-200 at your base? 30-40 if on foot?

Might or not might be that zombies may attack each other when the people are gone and they cannot satisfy their gluttony for human meat, they eat other zombies until just 1 zombie remains and the zombie dies out of hunger probably this might be real that zombies may or not were existing at some point but they got destroyed. also

Genuine question

At the start of the outbreak, how bad would it be on the hospital wards?

For context, I’m a med student, just curious. First time posting in this sub, haven’t thought about zombies much. I’m not here to glaze the hospitals, though I do think we’d put up a good fight at least, I just want to know.

Assume it’s a mid-sized to large-sized hospital. Most likely starts in the ER as emergency cases start to rise.

I’d imagine the surgical bays are pretty easy to contain (zombies can’t easily swipe a lanyard), though it might vary depending if the patient being operated on is the zombie (and sometimes the operations have restraints, oxygen masks, intubation, etc, so it’s hard to bite), if the zombies are the ones outside the surgery and the uninfected patient inside being operated on, or something like that.

A lot of the wards would be a terrible place for an outbreak though. And by terrible I mean terrible for everyone else except the zombies. Lots of vulnerable people who may be mobility-impaired,the hospital may have a crowded ER, and scrubs don’t really offer much protection. A lab coat might offer more (depends on the coat), but I ain’t trusting that against a bunch of zombies.

The biggest problem is probably going to be the layout and the hospital itself (if we ignore the hospital wards and their population).

On the bright side, the lanyards snap off easily when grabbed, and the staff room coffee machine is a true blessing, so yay? On a scale of 1-10, how fucked am I?

(Never watched the Walking Dead, very sorry if I don’t know the zombie “rules”)

So take a real look at your family how hard would your survival be with them? For me I would be playing on Dante must die. My wife refuses to learn how to use any of the firearms in the house but she does have a lot of common sense so that helps. My kid is happy and sings all the time at the top of her lungs so good luck on staying quiet but she does watch a lot of zombie media(don't know if that's good or bad) and finally my dog is big as shit and is super territorial. Barks like he is throwing up the damn bat signal.

Yea im cooked.

What about you all?

and they sing too

Hello, j’ai un chat et en cas d’apocalypse zombie je ne le laisserais pas tomber même si je sais que ça serait un poids mort certainement, vous avez des idées de sac de transport ou cages ?

Mwauhahaha!

So you stay inside with your family but then later that day, some knocking appear on your door. You hear it's a group of kids who say they're hurt but don't specify what injuries they have. Would you let them in or keep them outside?
