Overview

• The bear that attacked in episode 6 was a normal, non-zombified animal named Bobbie and was created through CGI and on-set choreography.
• Walking Dead chief content officer Scott Gimple confirmed that zombie bites cannot reanimate a bear despite the creature’s walker-inflicted injuries.
• Maggie and her son Hershel narrowly escape the bear’s assault when the beast impales itself on Bruegel’s spike-filled fighting ring.
• Negan expels the Croat from the Dama’s ranks and consolidates authority over the faction’s minions across Manhattan.
• Hershel’s plan to poison Bruegel’s group with walker blood is intercepted by Maggie as tensions deepen among the survivors.
