Just wondering cause since they eat people the stuff gotta go somewhere.  What goes in comes out huh?  Though I've never seen it in a movie...yet.

If they live long enough, they might. The life time of a zombie is measured in hours, basically. The reason for this is that they are constantly decaying; being 'un'dead, they are risen from the grave, and are already decaying.  So the question is: will their GI tracts last long enough to pass the flesh/blood/brains they've consumed, or will their intestines burst first? (" 'E's a poet, and 'e don't know it...")

There are several 'grades' of Zombies, I've found. Shufflers, screamers, runners, sprinters... my studies are continuing. I recently (last night in fact) viewed Day of the Dead (2008), in which it was revealed that SOME zombies actually retain some of their original personalities! (Imagine that one poor kid, who was a vegetarian before he became a zombie! What would he eat?)

The different 'grades' of zombies probably determines their viability in their current climate, i.e. the more active they are the more 'healthy' they are. Shufflers/moaners are almost gone for; sprinters/screamers are likely to be active for several days.

So it is likely that the healthier zombies DO defecate. But they are so covered by other... er... "body fluids..." that it is unlikely to make a difference to anyone they are attacking.


ETA

IN before the "OOHHHH SHIIIT" jokes...

dang, did we just hit a new level with zombie questions?

What is next? Do zombies date other zombies?  What makes a zombie father into a zombie daddy?

Did you ever read the book "everybody poops"?

Next some one is going to ask if zombies fornicate.

After they eat your brain is come out somehow.

Yes.They don't really digest food, it just goes through them, so at some point rotten meat starts pouring out the holes.

I think the brains would just fall through them, like dead people with all their excrement and fluids leaking out

i knew i shouldnt have concluded my office's happy hour early and go on arfcom. im going to puke now thanks

Just wanted to see if anyone would answer this.  After all there was the thread about sexual relations with zombies.

I vote not the way a living person poops. More like when the Jackass dude pooped while running!

Odd Question

It's been discussed.  Quite useful information in there if I do say so myself.  

Gives new meaning to the term, "Keep the tip."

If they do it would give new meaning to "SHTF" wouldn't it?

How about, were do they poop.



After all not all Zombies can be found in the woods.

There was zombie sex and the resultant zombie baby in Dead Alive.

haha, I mean who hasn't been there?

I would be more worried about their farts.
If the virus becomes airborne we may need gas masks.

This.
Because their digestive system does not work so what happens is when their stomach and intestines fill with flesh the excess will either exit through the anus or cause their stomach or intestines to rupture.

I figured they kept eating, filling up their stomachs until they overflow and burst/pour out their mouths. I don't know if their organs work since they are undead.

Organs do not work.

So my plan to stick a bayonet up their anus may be hazardous.
Good to know.
