128 | Zombie Bugs | Why We Do What We Do

from Why We Do What We Do Hosted by Scott Abraham Miller

Our final Halloween themed episode dives into real-life zombies. Besides being horrifyingly disturbing, these brainless parasites pose an interesting conundrum to understanding how a reanimated corpse can seemingly move with purpose. How does it know how to coordinate the legs? How does it know to position itself to re-infect another host? What is it like for the bug? Surprisingly, the fungus does not infect the brain, instead it controls the muscles directly. Hoes does it work?! We do our best to address this odd phenomenon Remember that you can reach us directly at 775.525.0908, at [email protected], through the comments below OR on social via @wwdwwdpodcast or #wwdwwdpodcast.
