Whats your choice for an Apocalypse?

[Teuthida]

I can't imagine having bears strolling through my neighborhood. The largest wild animals around here are squirrels and well-fed rats.

So for a impending Bearpocalyse you abduct cubs and raise them to fight for your cause. With cool battle armor like in the Golden Compass. Though if one dies in battle and turns into an armored zombie bear, things could get tricky.

Humans can theoretically outrun any land animal over a long distance.
