Anyone tracking the number of different creatures witnessed so far?

Not really, but we should be able to compile a list together.

We've seen:

Behemoths
Howlers*
Intelligent ones
Jumpers
Little ones
Runners
Standard zombies,
Swimming ones**

Unique ones:
Ink,

*) While they don't seam to be very different from other zombies, this is all we have on howlers:

We've heard several others do it throughout the series, one in particular also in the tower when Burt showed up. That one didn't look any different either.
The last bit of info I would give is, if everyone could do it, we'd hear it more often.

**) It's not clear how different the swimming ones are from regular ones.

What was it Michael faced at the waterplant again? Was that a behemoth too, or something meaner?

And plenty more I can't recall just now.

Jumpers and the one that Michael faced was a behemoth. I think that the Little ones may be the result of Breeding.

Skittles may not have been changed because he could become another Ink, maybe that's why he has survived this long, but he is also good enough to get away.

Maybe skittles IS ink!
Ok.. we also have the Howlers. The ones that call the others in. There does seem to be a kind of Hive Mentality as well.
The Little Ones were also the "droolers" right?
any theories on how big the behemoths are? In my minds eye they're a good 15 feet, blubbery with bits and pieces falling off.

I always assumed the howlers were just regulars w/ 1 extra skill.

And the little ones. Maybe they are dog/cats/hamsters? Hmm....

I see them more as about 7-8 feet with quite a build up of muscle. The zits could be an indication of Steroid use during their lifetime.

So did I - Kc, could you confirm whether howlers are regular zombies or another variant?

The steroid theory is interesting, thanks for sharing it. I hadn't thought of that yet. Sounds very plausible too.

Everytime I hear the behemoth I think of this guy. (minus the tubes of course) He was always the most menacing zombie in my mind.

I have to go with Sid on this one. Sorry Crow.. His analysis is logical.
I also think that their skulls are smaller and the brain is lower in the face and into the neck. As they are slower and don't seem to see as well as the others.

I never thought of skittles as ink. I mean he could be but then again wouldn't Angel or Riley or Kalani have noticed? I mean he could be but he would also have to be a smart one if he could talk. I'm not sure about the howlers either, I always thought they were the smart ones because the zombie that ambushed the tower was a smart one and he was able to call them. And the behemoths I always imagined them looking like the Marauders off of Resistance Fall of Man. Heres a link to the picture. http://resistance.wikia.com/wiki/Fil...05810_640w.jpg
