Welcome back to another video in the now-ongoing series on “monster” biology. Today, we’ll be exploring the complex and deteriorating biology of arguably one of the most omnipresent monsters in all modern media: the zombie.
But while you may think you know zombies, let me tell you, there’s much more to unearth. Enjoy!

I have another video on monster biology coming next, but I want to know: which monster should we explore next? Let me know, and thanks for watching!
Lycan next
It does make sense zombies would hoard I mean think about it you're lost scared confused in pain and hungry and there's a group of people around you and you're all heading to the delicious smells it just makes sense that you would walk with these people for some sense of comfort as if subconsciously seeking help from your suffering that you can no longer ask for
Werewolves please!!
are we gonna get a werewolf study soon?
or another video about mermaids, but regarding their biology and appearance?
Hey! Just letting you know that established titles is a scam! I saw it on your bestiary video!
Thx for the vampire video i know about myself know lol
So if they are all viruses what was the first
Love these videos! Plz, do more studies like this. Maybe on the Necromorph from Dead Space or the Flood from Halo.
Please Please do one on mermaids !!!!!!!
We are going need lycanthropy next!
Zombism and Vampirism, is 2 sides of the same coin one is where the victims dna is hijacked however still sentient, and the other is a virus Hivemind, only to operate on the viruses needs ie PROLIFERATION
First time I've heard a great explanation for zombie strength.
bro is this a joke?
Thanks for zombie info but
doctor: "sir you have been diagnosed with HZV"
patient: "oh no how did i catch aids, that's horrible"
doctor: no, no sir. i said H Z V"
Patient indistinguishable mumbling
These videos are so much fun and so well-made. I would love one on werewolves! Feels like a great addition to the vampire and zombie lineup, so you probably were already planning on it, lol 🙂
👍🏻
I have a review paper I'm writing for cell bio so I love the fact that I can pick 100% of the jargon you're using; makes watching that much better.
Can you do one on wendigos and others too?
Would be awesome to see one of these style videos on wendigos. They've always been one of my favorite fantasy creatures.
Wait, in your HVP video, you said that vampires use circulation through skeletal muscle. You said they had lots of fast twitch muscles and that they are nearly inexhaustible. But in this video you said zombies also use the same kind of circulation and said it is inefficient
Zombie forming groups can be explained by simply the act of going towards food sources. Each zombie in an area will go to a potential prey, and when it is successfully hunted down, the zombies stay around or just wander off in search of another prey. With enough iterations, this behaviour can lead to a really large group of zombies occupying and wandering the same area, giving the illusion of a organized social-like behaviour.
It sounds so real it's honestly kinda creeping me out.
Do mimics!
i´m obsessed with this videos that give insight on how myths could be presented in a realistic or scientific way. loved your explanation on vampires and i´m sure zombies won´t be any different. makes me wonder if in the near future you´ll cover another great monster 🐺🎑
These videos are amazing!!
man i love these videos
Got it, attack the lungs
Next video is where wolves?
My favorite version of zombies are ghouls because it connects to vampires.
hehe… zombiology
YESSS
Love this series. I'll stay around for more
I dare you to try and explain werewolf biology, so far you've only done the ones that still hold some human resemblance, but what about the trickier ones like the day and night cycle transformation of werewolves?
I can’t wait for your take on lycanthropy.
Just how for how long have you been playing plague Inc
Sorry ik the joke is just so uncalled for
This and your vampire video are awesome and i would love to see your take on lycanthropy
I like how accurate you made Zombies, I'm excited when you research the science behind Werewolves.
Can you do a video aboit fast-moving/running zombies? It will be interesting to hear what makes some zombies move slowly while others move fast.
This dude makes cool videos
Zombie apocalypse can not exist. We can thank our red eyed flies for this. No only will they seek out rotting flesh they will show us a huge sign that zombies are near with the intense gathering, mating, maggot bursting house fly saviours🐲💥❤
the what viurs? 🤨📸 2:32
Zombies ate my neighbors!
Do wherewolves next.
Or maybe witches?
a question, can the virus infect and reanimate a dead person?
So the super zombie mutation, like runners,climbers, acid spiters, super strong, and the ones that explode if u pop there stomach, ect.is by scientist playing with the virus trying to weaponize ?
