I think that the reason they clean up all their dead, and the pile at the Arena, are for creating the specials. Tommy was pretty smart I'd say, at least with electronics, and he didn't seem to turn into anything out of the ordinary, though he did try to run as opposed to attack right away.....hmm.....
How would a contagion/virus cause nausea at Ground Zero...?
If you don't remember this, you'd better relisten to Kalani's words when he first got to the Tower...
Interesting, non?
Good Call Sid. This could explain a person getting sick and vomiting...Quote:

And even then, how do you piece together a jumper? It's legs were super long...how do you piece together legs like that and make them functional?
Ok, if someone can explain how it's possible to piece together and reanimate a corpse i'll try my best to go with you on this.
Nik's correct, it is impossibly difficult to reanimate a corpse, even if it is just one body. How in the hell could you piece together a runner? Or a behemoth for that matter and then have all of those parts work together in unison without the necessary minuscule organisms that aid in every part of a living larger being... You then have to deal with all the problems of brain matter, the spinal coloumn, and the nervous system. All of this is only to be taken into consideration after you learn how bring back the dead...
Maybe not necessarily reanimation but if an existing zombie eats the remains of another zombie it changes them somehow.
Ok so what we know so far is that non of the zombies are humans that died and reanimated. They are evolving or least more different types are showing up. They do have some sort of social structure class system similar to an insect system (as someone else mentioned). They do have the arena as for lack of better term a hive with a disction there. They collect their dead, they take humans alive, and they have/had a stockpile of non-zombie human parts.
So maybe there is a queen of sorts at the arena ie the little ones that is going to be the next gen of zombies that we have no idea what they are going to be capable of. In order for them to survive they need to eat. Maybe the human stockpile (parts) is for the little ones to eat or for the queen. The dead zombies is for the zombies to eat and the captured live humans are the ones the queen is experimenting on creating different types of zombies. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if soon we start seeing diggers or tunnelers, seems like a logical step towards breaking surviver strongholds.
I do not think there is a frankenzombie situation and refer to Nik's post because I'm in total agreement with him on that. But maybe there is an even more super smart one ie the queen/king that has a lab at the arena that is continueing the experiment and is organizing the zombie population, hence why we're not seeing as many lately.
Listen to chapter thirteen again, when they see what is most likely the marked one and he howls, it's pretty distinct, right?... But, when the zombies are called back there is quite a different howl from, what seems to be, a much farther distance away...
This may be evidence of a 'king' or 'queen' zombie.
P.S. When Burt tries to line up the shot and everything goes quiet... So amazing.
Just a thought, the bits of dead people and zombies in the arena are brought to the queen as food for the queen. Possibility that the queen can create new zombies from parts or even breed. Use for Burts C4 anyone?
I reference you to my post earlier on the previous page: you cannot reanimate dead parts and make a functional creature.Quote:
