What happens at the end of Leave the World Behind?

At the end of Leave the World Behind, New York City gets bombed and an Emergency Alert System interceptor reveals that a war is happening between the United States government and armed forces who want to overthrow it. Amanda and Ruth witness the bombing and Rose then finds Thorne’s bunker in the neighborhood for the Scott and Sanford families to take shelter. She enters the bunker to find a DVD of Friends, and then inserts it into the player and watches the last episode.

Why did Flamingos and other animals arrive in the pool of the Sanford family’s AirBnB in Long Island?

The Flamingos ended up at the pool in the Sanford family’s Long Island AirBnB, due to geopolitical catastrophes that altered the migration pattern of not only flamingos but also other wild animals, as mentioned in the film.

What kind of tick bit Archie?

It is unknown what kind of tick bit Archie as the film ended before that question could be answered.

However, based on what we see happen to Archie in the film, such as his teeth falling off and him vomiting a black mass at one point could very likely mean that the tick that bit him was a robotic tick that had a deadly disease agent imbued in it. This would most definitely make sense given the dystopian setting of the film.

Why did a lot of deers show up at the Sanford’s Long Island AirBnB?

The film does not explain how the deers show up at Sanford’s Long Island AirBnB. The only thing explaining their presence, if it can be considered an explanation, is Ruth’s assessment of the deers knowing the imminent danger everyone was going to face. As for why they were unnaturally aggressive, it is likely due to changing migration patterns and possibly the Scotts and Sanfords obstructing a new migration route they were very likely on.
