Zombie Apocalypse: Fight or Flight?

There have been countless films, tv shows, video games and books about a zombie apocalypse. While the living dead have inspired so many works of fiction, there are apparently some among us that believe in the possibility of a real-life Walking Dead situation arising. In a recent poll by YouGov, of the 2,204 surveyed, 12 percent said that they have a 'zombie plan'.

As our infographic shows, the most common survival strategy would be to simply take shelter at home. The more adventurous of the respondents though, would look to tool up and take the fight to the zombies. Others would go on the run, hoping to find a safe haven on a remote island or somewhere out in the wilderness.
