![]() ![]() The first signs of infection are erratic and abnormal behavior. But only ophiocordyceps control their host’s body.Ībout 35 of these ophiocordyceps fungi are known to turn insects into zombies, but as many as 600 may exist, says João Araújo, an expert on parasitic fungi at the New York Botanical Garden. Cordyceps are a broad category of insect parasites, and a popular health supplement. How does the parasite infect ants?Ĭreator of The Last of Us Neil Druckmann was reportedly inspired by a nature video showing the fungus, Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, infecting a bullet ant. But while scientists aren’t worried about fungi evolving to turn people into zombies, rising temperatures do pose a real risk of making fungal infections worse. “In a fantastical way, the logical links are there, but it’s not likely to happen in real life,” says Will. ![]() That’s the premise of the new television show based on the video game The Last of Us in which, as a result of warming temperatures caused by climate change, a fungus takes over the world and turns humans into parasite-controlled zombies. What if this parasitic fungus could do the same thing to us? ![]() “They’re like these grim little Christmas ornaments out in the forest,” says Ian Will, a fungal geneticist at the University of Central Florida, where these zombified ants can be found. he will be sorely missed.An ant, no longer in control of its body, crawls away from its colony, hangs perilously on a leaf, and waits to die as a fungus consumes its body, emerges from its head, and releases spores into the air. he was an absolute pillar of e-sports during the sc2 era. made me a huge fan before he even got into the casting/personality side of things. i was always amazed at the positive attitude he had when he was training so hard at the release of sc2 and kept putting up disappointing results. usually those guys who wear their emotions on their sleeves end up kind of seeming like jerks, but not geoff. he really stood out in the e-sports community as being extremely authentic and also actually a really good dude. i can't help but feel incredibly sad and shocked, he died so young. his wife of many many years had broken up with him less than a year ago too and he still seemed like he still somehow kept up a positive attitude the whole time. posted tweets about being alone and terrified in the ER. truly heartbreaking, he always seemed like an amazing guy. and given it was near his femoral artery, I can't help but think it had to be related to that dvt issue in some way. He had a large infected abcess over his femoral artery less than a month ago, sounded like he had to have surgery and was on the mend, but i have to imagine there was some complications with that given his sudden passing.
