Zombie Bait

[ColdNuggets 5]

Okay first suggestion.

I know the zombies are kinda broken atm as they can see through walls etc. But once they're fixed, which can be whenever. (It's in Alpha I get it) How about some sort of bait to distract zombies? For someone like me who likes sneaking around and playing DayZ as a survival game, It seems pretty useful. Specially since the zombies are tougher to kill now and I heard some talk of including more zombies in game. 
For example, We could use meat from hunting animals and place or throw it to lure zombies to that position for like 5-10 seconds. It could even be used to distract bandits who use zombie aggro to find out player locations etc. 

The bait could be anything. Animal meat seems pretty realistic though. 

I hope more people agree. I really wanna see DayZ focusing even more on survival and zombie threats. 

Edit: Sorry if this has already been suggested. The search function isn't working for me on Firefox for some reason. :c

How about the equivalent of a flash bang grenade, homemade, you throw it over there and bang, the zombies run over?

No meat, just beeping grenades like in left 4 dead.

Beeping grenades seem to "military". I thought we were pushing for more homemade weapons/items like the bow. Like it's great and all when you have military gear etc. But using something easy to locate and just as effective seems more realistic.

Meat sounds like a good long term distraction, but throwing stuff, anything should act as a bit of a distraction as well.

Why not meat? I imagine hungry zombies would be attracted to possible food.
