Anyone know how to get a sample of the fungus Ophiocordyceps unilateralis (Aka zombie ant fungus ) in the US? I need it for research purposes. Preferably a live strain that can be harvested. Pic related

Op, please dont genocide ants. They are just existing and living for community. We should strive to be like them.

Plus you could ruin your area but introducing foreign species.

>>35700458
I don't wanna genocide ants at all. I just wanna gain more information about there life cycle.

Why don't you genetically engineer the fungus so it affects humans instead? Normies BTFO
>>
>>35699776
>op invents zombie fungus and sets it free
>cdc just hands out gas masks and sprays fungicides
>op gets arrested for domestic bio terrorism
i dont think you thought this one through
zombies are a thing for movies since real life zombies couldnt just take 50 gorillion bullets to the chest and survive without any blood in their system and after all you live in america where owning a gun and going to the shooting range is as common as obesity
>>
>>35700603
this is kind of the subplot to the last of us
>>
>>35699776
Some Asians use cordyceps as mystic medicine. Maybe if you look around your local Chinatown, you'll find some quack selling it. The sample probably won't be alive though
>>
>>35700603
That's the point/joke anon.
>>
>>35700648
>imblying OP won''t genetically-engineer the zombie fungus to be immune to conventional fungicides
>>
>>35700944
Or killing it could cause death. There's that too.

>>35700648
Shooting random sick people is murder.

>>35699776
OP. Reading your post has led me to assume several things about you: The first is that you've played or heard a general plot synopsis of the video game "The Last of Us". The second is that you believe that you have the knowledge to reverse engineer a fungus that has only affected insects in the past to affect humans or other mammals. The third is that you believe that this will create a zombie. I'm very aware that my assumptions may be wrong, but if they aren't, I have a couple more things to tell you. I don't really think that you have the biological know-how to pull any of that off. If you're planning on creating a biological weapon, then there's a very good chance that some branch of intelligence will find out before you get done. Also, if in the one in a fucking trillion chance that you somehow get this shit to work, it won't work how you want it to. The fungus wouldn't make people act like rabid dogs. They'd probably just aimlessly walk or have seizures for a little while before dying of a fever or inflammation.

>>35700944
it wouldnt take long to research a new fungicide tho since if the epidemic reaches critical levels all the effort will be on researching a fungicide that works
and they would still give out tons of cheap ait filter masks and plastic googles which makes spreading the infection harder
>>35701082
if a zombie epidemic ever reached critical levels martial law would be declared and infected ppl could be seen as combatants since they attack the countries citizen so you would have every right to shoot them
>>
>>35701082
>Shooting random sick people is murder.

Yes. And humans have murdered other humans en masse for much less than being sick.
>>
>>35701331
Ironically only sick people do that though.
>>
>>35701246
Nope just wanna fuck around with my pet ant colony

>>35700648
The Infected in The Last Of us aren't zombies.

They're living, breathing humans that are just host to a parasite.

The modern media has been extremely lazy with slapping the term "zombie" on any and all superhuman infected mutant.

Even regular old zombies have been overpowered in modern media, like in The Walking Dead. So many dumb assholes in that show were killed and ripped to shreds not by a horde of zombies but literally just one or two of them.

Not the same cordyceps. Those are Cordyceps Sinensis, I take them as supplements.
