Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

Time flows like a river. Which is to say, downhill. We can tell this because everything is going downhill rapidly. It would seem prudent to be somewhere else when we reach the sea.

Also, in some situations, you could use gas. Depending on how zoonotic the infection is, attack dogs would also be useful.

Depends what sort of infection it is something like solanum,red eye,green flu or the I am Legend cancer cure virus would kill the dogs or horribly mutate them....
Dogs could still be used as an early warning system,barking when they get near or dogs could be used to sniff out food

Yes but ive played through both games about a million times and the most that it says about green flu is its name scribbled on the walls.... although its a very cool way of telling a story ^_^
So have I, and I've noticed a bit more then that. All 'information' about the Green Flu is provided by various survivors, who don't have the full picture. CEDA posters are everywhere, with comments scribbled near it. Survivors claim that the virus is NOT airborne, even though posters demand that everyone wear masks.

I'd try to make my way to the Universe Where Things Went Right and our fair Realm now extends across the globe and out into the solar system, then conquer all reality and beyond.

More likely I'd end up a refugee, what with there being no evidence I existed before I arrived.

Solanum doesn't affect dogs. And, as I said before, the easiest solution in 28 Days Later would be gassing the entire city. Chlorine should do.

But where's the fun in that?

Hell, if the zombie Apocalypse is coming, I'm making a quick buck. Fence off the entire city and use it as a game preserve. Who wouldn't want a mounted zombie head?

i have a plan fetish idea (ahem) for a universe where a lot of people are attracted to me :whistle:
i also have plans for landing in the X-men, last airbender (cough avatar cough), fallout, that crazy porno a friend made me watch , harry potter, lord of the rings , discworld and metro 2033 universes
they go as such
- (X-men)go through a forced mutation and engineer william strykers assasination

-(avatar the last airbender) get to Kyoshi island, its neutral, alternatively get to Ba Sing Se and either assasinate long feng/azula or join the dai li (evil earth benders), if water tribe, get to the north pole, if fire nation 'immigrate' to the earth nation and disguise myself as an earth kingdom citizen

(fallout) find fresh water, survive day in day out until i join the NCR troops

(harry potter) shake things up a bit by using magically altered muggle weapons

(lord of the rings) join sauron and usurp him

(discworld) move to ankh-morpok and join the postal service

(metro 2033) polyanka

Well out of all those places you have suggested i would hate to be in the Metro 2033 world its just plain scary. Although i would hate to be stuck in the world of a scientific fantasy,also i would hate to be on Sera (gears of war) i think i would just kill myself

And Singe Solanum does affect dogs it just kills them if they get infected
