Is Montana ready for zombies? 'Permits' could place walking dead on endangered list

The owner of a local shooting supply store is selling zombie permits today, April 1, just to be ready for a zombie outbreak, should one occur.

“They’re just selling so fast,” said Will Dubielczyk, owner of Sun River Shooter Supply, referring to the zombie permits, which he sells for $5 each.

Montana residents were shocked, and amused, in February by a television warning claiming zombies were being sighted in several counties. The claim turned out to be a hoax, of course, perpetrated by hackers who successfully infiltrated the Emergency Alert System, a national public warning system implemented by the Federal Communications Commission, Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Weather Service.

But with the frenzy and speculation afterward comes the inevitable question — is Montana ready for a zombie outbreak?
