Humans witness birth of ‘super zombie’ animals



The Horde has unveiled a secret weapon: a cross-breed of animals and the undead.

The new living dead species wasted no time claiming human lives.

The animals descended upon a group of humans on the Quad at Utah State University on Tuesday afternoon.

In the gory onslaught, living dead elephants, monkeys, gazelles and crabs devoured human flesh.

"Gazelles run around and the monkeys are annoying,” said Jeremy “Fate” Baker, the Harbinger of Lore. “The elephants have to be hit with a grenade and the crabs run backwards because their backsides are bulletproof.”
  
Minutes after the first faction marched into the danger zone one human separated from the group and was surrounded by ghoulish gazelles. Another human was trampled by a mob of undead elephants while attempting to dodge a grenade launched by a hybrid monkey. While running from a group of crabs, one person was impaled on an elephant's tusk.

Not all humans fell victim to the zombie hordes. One hunter, Tim Clark, outmaneuvered the hybrids. 

“I’m not surprised I survived. I’m just good,” said Clark, the sole survivor of his faction. “You just run. When surrounded, you dodge. Then, run some more.”

At the end of the battle the living-dead monkeys and gazelles returned to their previous zombie form, but some transformations were permanent.

“The crabs and the elephants will stay,” Baker said. “They’ll be called super-zombies.”
