A zombie-like disease has been found in deer in Yellowstone National Park.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/zombie-deer-disease-cases-b2468735.html

Scientists fear the zombie disease could spread to humans. Wouldn't it be amazing if a zombie disease propagated into Montana and all those 'doomsday preppers' were right and everyone else was wrong.



They would say to the city folk "I told you so, who's crazy now?".

Then they wouldn't let us in their bunker because they were heavily armed and only had enough supplies for themselves.

We need Beet to help with predictions on global pandemics. He got the last one spot on.

Fake news, disease exists for a long time already

Also, humans have a similar disease that already exists known as Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease.

Quote
It is thought that humans can contract the variant form of the disease by eating food from animals infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), the bovine form of TSE also known as mad cow disease.

Good possibility that infecting deer would increase your chance of contracting this disease.

Yeah Laki is correct here there is no such thing as Zombie Deer Disease.  It's called Chronic wasting disease (CWD). literally any hunter or anyone who lives in a area with hunters knows it as CWD and its been around in many states for decades.   Typical Media Fearmongering.
