## Every ZED ZONE enemies and bosses page

- [entity Zombies & hordes The ZED ZONE infected: Army and Firefighter Zombies, Breakers, Boomers, the Blood Creeper and plant-mutated infected, Dormant Hordes, horde pathfinding, night speed and what each drops. Dormant Hordes lie near hospitals and in the wild; noise wakes them. Army Zombies drop military supplies since 0.9.99.8.15. “Zombies Run at Night” (+30% speed) is off by default.](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/zombies-and-hordes/)

- [entity Giant Mutant Lizard Where the ZED ZONE Giant Mutant Lizard lives (every inland lake and one on the coast), its berserk phases at 60% and 30%, lizard bait, nests, and the Lizard Serum and Scalehide it unlocks. One at every inland lake, plus one on the island coast. Berserk at 60% and 30% health; damage persists across reloads. Guaranteed Lizard Serum: +1 permanent attribute point.](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/giant-mutant-lizard/)

## Enemies & Bosses: ZED ZONE FAQ
Where is the Giant Mutant Lizard? One lives at every inland lake (look for the lake-and-fish icon on the PDA map), plus one on the island coast. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/giant-mutant-lizard/#where)

Do giant lizards respawn? Not by default. After your first kill you can craft Giant Lizard Bait, which lures another one in about a minute. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/giant-mutant-lizard/#bait)

How do I get to the Far Island? Repair the boat on the main island. After that you can sail back and forth, and items in the cabin travel with you. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/area-guardians-and-ending/#route)

Who are the Area Guardians? The Augmented Security Captain at the port, the Corpse Amalgam at the RNA Lab and the Factory Warden at the factory. Their access devices open Area 61. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/area-guardians-and-ending/#guardians)

How do I survive radiation? Wear a gas mask, Radiation Cloak or Heavy Radiation Armor, take Iodine Tablets or Anti-Radiation Medicine, and start the plant’s backup cooling to weaken the storms. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/area-guardians-and-ending/#radiation)

Why did a horde appear at my base? Dormant Hordes wake up from noise and wander until cleared. Hordes look for open doors first, then break the weakest wall. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/zombies-and-hordes/#hordes)

Why can’t I kill some zombies? Unkillable zombies were a known bug; one case in basements was fixed in 0.9.99.9.1. Players fix others by saving and reloading. [Details →](https://zed-zone.wiki/threats/zombies-and-hordes/#fighting)
