Our team has been working to train people for the coming Zombie Apocalypse through tools and tips learned in their various fields of expertise. We expect to give you the same tools and training to ensure your one of the survivors, and not part of the undead plague.
By keeping up to date on the latest literature, tools, and training we plan to show you how to stay healthy and avoid becoming one of the undead horde that will pillage humanity. So check back with us on a regular basis to ensure you are prepared to survive the Zombie Apocalypse
To be honest, there’s not much we can say about the rule specifically. I mean when a zombie outbreak occurs you had better be checking every room (bathroom, closet, kitchen, whatever) before entering anyway. And once you’ve entered that room you damn well better be securing any doorways, windows, air vents, etc. from zombie infiltration. [...]
The question is often asked, “where do you run when the zombies are right behind you?” One of the easiest options a person can use in determining the safest places to go is to look at a map of the planet at night (see above.) Where ever there are no lights, thats a good place [...]
Ah the Doubletap. This is our favorite rule, and the most important one on the list as far as we’re concerned. As the man says, “In those moments where you’re not quite sure if the undead are really dead, dead, don’t get all stingy with your bullets.” (Columbus, Zombieland) We couldn’t agree more. If your [...]
Oh, sweet shimmering blade of death. What would we do without you. Since its creation in the fourteenth century, the Katana (sometimes called the Samurai) sword has become one of the preferred weapons of any death dealer. A properly made Katana runs approximately 73cm (just over 2 ft) in length and is worn with the [...]
Well, we finally saw Zombieland this weekend, and what can we say. It was funny. Frighteningly inaccurate in many areas, but amusing nonetheless. One of the areas we thought was a great tool to pass along were Columbus’ rules of surviving Zombieland. While we don’t agree with all of them by any means, there were [...]
The Nano-Zombie Threat Level: Red It is believed that the Nano-Zombie was created accidentally when researchers were working with microscopic robots (also called Nanites, Nanobots, Nannies, etc.) in an attempt to extend the human life span. Rumor has it that the initial trials used Rhesus monkeys as test subjects and that one of these creatures [...]
Zombie Threat Level Indicator This indicator, produced and created by the U.S. Zombie Tactical Squad, provides both an indication of the current zombie threat as well as the individual threat levels of individual zombie types. Please pay attention to the current Zombie Threat Level to ensure you keep up-to-date on where your current preparedness level [...]
Coffee and Caffeine I love my daily cup of Joe. It wakes me up, gets me going, make the workday tolerable (makes my co-workers tolerable.) If I don’t get that morning cup I’m cranky, I have a headache, and I’m easy to anger. I know, however, when the dead begin to walk in their search [...]
There seems to be a great deal of confusion on whether or not zombies will attack animals, and if they do, will those animals become infected, simply die, or go on with their lives. As this video shows, some types of zombies will indeed attack animals that enter their vicinity, but this is not always the case.
Some types of zombies will indeed attack an animal, though those same types will typically attack any warm or moving object. Some types of zombies will only attack certain types of animals (e.g., mammals but not lizards,) and some types of zombies will only go after a human being.
To make this a little more straightforward we have come up with the following lists to help you in knowing whether or not your family pets are safe.
Zombies that Will Attack Animals:
Zombies that Will Only Attack Humans
To understand how to identify each type of zombie, please click on the links above and review the various articles. This will advise you on how to identify your zombies, and find out whether they are a threat to only you, or if you need to protect your pets as well.
One important item to note when reviewing the articles, not all zombie types can be spread to your animals. So while you may want to protect Spot from being eaten, if he does get bitten, you do not necessarily need to put him out of his misery.
If your pet/horse/cow/sheep does receive a bite, and you are unsure what type of zombie you have encountered, the safest option is to put the animal down. We understand that this is difficult (nigh on impossible for some.) We are pet owners and animal lovers ourselves, and to have to put down your own animal is one of the most difficult decisions one can make, even if it isn’t due to an infected bite from a zombie.
That said, the infected pet is no longer the loving, caring creature you have shared time and adventures with. If not now, then soon it will turn into a vicious, ravenous creature with only your death in mind.
If you cannot bring yourself to put your pet down, and you have not been able to identify the type of zombie bite it has received, you have two options.
NOTE: We cannot stress enough how dangerous, and frankly stupid this option is. Primarily, keeping a potentially infected animal locked up for up to a week can cause issues of its own. What if you have to move because of a coming horde? What about the animals natural biological processes and the necessary cleanup? Where can you keep a horse locked up that where you can guarantee it won’t escape, break free, etc.?
Additionally, there is no guarantee that even after five, ten, or even 100 days that your pet is guaranteed infection free. All creatures have different resistances to infections. Your chihuahua may be naturally immune to the zombie bacteria, but can still pass it on if he bites you. The only way to guarantee your safety from your pet is to put it down, no matter how difficult the decision.
To be blunt, it’s you or them. In a war against the zombification of all humanity your pet may become collateral damage. It’s sad, it’s difficult to come to terms with, it’s your only guarantee for safety.
In the war against zombies, animals are often caught in the middle. Many people are forced to abandon their pets when they go on the run. Even more are turned and have no recollection of their family and friends, much less their pets.
While some animals are trained to help humanity against the zombie threats, many are left to fend for themselves and have been known to become a danger in themselves. Feral packs of both dogs, cats, and even escaped zoo animals have been known to roam urban wastelands after an outbreak.
For these reasons, we recommend that if you are a pet owner and you realize that an outbreak is occurring, please do something about your pets. They will not likely be able to make it through the outbreak alive, and may even become a danger to you and your survival group. We know it’s difficult, but it may become necessary.
