Anatomically Correct Zombie

+0
−0

As requested by JBH, I edited this question to fit the Anatomically Correct Series.

The classic zombie is no mystery to anyone: undead, eats people and multiplies by biting humans. Could they ever evolve in nature?

A few rules I would like you to follow:

  • They have to be their own species rather than a human turned by a bite;
  • You have to explain why their bodies are in decomposition (or why they look like it);
  • What is their "set of abilites"? Can they run? Are they guided by smell? How strong are they compared to humans? Do they have some degree of intelligence? You are not obligated to answer these questions specifically, but give me some answers in this line of thinking.
  • And last but not least, you have to answer my original question: What is their diet like?
