Identifying a Zombie

With zombies running rampant in certain areas of the world, I thought it might be a good idea if people knew what they were supposed to be looking for.

In today's zombie riddled society there are basically three types of zombies. One type is not contagious, the African zombie, but since its not contagious we can probably move to the types of zombies that can turn you into one of them.

The European zombie is a crazed super zombie. You can usually identify these by their red eyes, blood dripping from tear ducts. These zombies are considered super zombies because of their amazing speed and unusual strength. This particular zombie seems to be more active at night, but can be seen during the day also. They eat a strict diet of human flesh and are extremely ravenous. They are also extremely contagious. You don't necessarily have to be bitten, you can be turned by ingesting any bodily fluids. Spit in the eye, blood in the mouth and so on. The incubation period for an infected person is almost instantaneous. This breed of zombie is especially dangerous because of the ease of transmission. Avoid contact at all cost but if confronted by one of these zombies destroying the brain or removing the head are the ways to dispatch one.

The second type of zombie is more prevalent in North America. This type of zombie is much slower than its European counterpart, but just as deadly. Some of the most common physical attributes are it's slow, uneven gate due to decomposing flesh, tattered clothing from time in the grave, and the flesh rotting off it's body. These zombies also live off human flesh, but have a special affinity for the brain. It seems this type of zombie makes up for its slowness with stealth and silence. Many a zombie has earned a meal by sneaking up on its pray. This particular type of zombie was dead at sometime, than rose from the grave. One bite from this breed of zombie will kill you and turn you into one of them. Once again the only way to kill such a zombie is to move remove the head or destroy the brain. Incubation time is longer for this kind of zombie, in some cases it can take days for the victim to turn.

No matter the type of zombie in your area, it is best to remain inside, boarding up windows and doors. Help is on the way!
