It's not the most likely scenario, of course, but the franchise's vocal creator Robert Kirkman says it's possible. There have been zombies seen in the series that are much less mobile. Lurkers were what we called them. The natural progression is that, yeah, eventually there will be very, very few zombies in this world because most of them will have died off and decayed away Only time will tell!! Years ago, it would have been imperative to bring up the fact that Robert Kirkman and Charlie Adlard's Walking Dead comic book would likely see zombies dying out first , because of the timeline issues.
However, Season 9 of the AMC series brought The Walking Dead 7 years deeper into the future , which means it's not all that far away from reaching a similar groove in the chronology. As such, both properties could feasibly reach a walker extinction of sorts around the same time. How would that even work on the live-action series, though? Eating zombie flesh is fatal instead of being contagious. The virus appears only to affect humans and results in the death of other organisms when infected.
For our project, we used major hospitals in Vancouver as the starting points for the spread of zombie movement. For the spread of the virus we looked at the various sources. In the Walking Dead, everyone living is infected with the virus and reanimates once they die. To provide a simpler virus spread, we decided that it would spread through the solanum virus and zombie scratches and bites as described in The Zombie Survival Guide. About twenty three hours.
Though it could depend on how the person was killed. Harsher deaths could result in a faster reanimation time. A zombie is a mutated organism constrained in a human shell that tends to have an angry and hungry personality. They do not appear to be very mobile as they shuffle and drag limbs as they walk and they have little to no hand-eye coordination. There have been instances of zombies that pretend to be rotting corpses and then bite unsuspecting people as they pass by as well as instances of zombies using rocks to smash objects which suggest a possible level of intelligence for some of them.
There is no reliance on oxygen, so zombies have the ability to exist in water. They would sink to the bottom of the water body and stay there until they get washed up on shore.

Which has an unknown tolerance to environmental factors, as well as the ability to go dormant. This also explains the zombies need to consume living flesh, to feed the colony.
Death and reanimation occur before complete assimilation, as the nervous system is replaced first. The infection then moves outward to the tissues, slowing decay by outputting powerful anti-biotic toxins. I think the rate of decay would be in accordance to the region where the zombie outbreak happens.
Decay rate in humans very depending on climate conditions, and so would make sense that it would in the case of zombies. Being in an arid, dry and hot climate, say as a desert, the rate of decomposition would be much slower than say in the humid and wet conditions as the rain forest. In addition you would have to take into account the time of year, winter or summer, can also play a huge role in preserving or hastening the decomposition rate.
True zombies should not differ from a regular corpse by much, but the factor still lies in the virus itself which is a great example made. A zombie might last about years depending on how long it takes to completely turn to bones Or at least till it becomes a nearly harmless threat. Your email address will not be published.
