Walkers would only die after some serious time when their brains would be exposed to the elements since the only living thing is their basic primal center of the brain which leads them to need only the basics to survive.
They don't need flesh to live but their brains are telling them to kill and eat to survive. It is the most basic function kill or be killed.

And the Walkers starve to death at a much slower rate, Michonne's were still alive up to a year after she chopped their mouths off.

correct

this would be way counter-acted by being constantly exposed...especially to animals
and this show has been going on, what? like a year? it takes a human about a week to die from dehydration and a month from starvation. ignoring that this would still apply to walkers, how much longer do you think they last? especially while never stopping and being exposed all the time

They had antibiotics. They chopped off Hershel's leg for goodness sake.

well the vast majority of humanity already died, humans aren't exactly reproducing at a high rate, and walkers don't eat other walkers. where are they getting their protein?

but this makes no sense with the "everyone who dies becomes a walker" line of reasoning. by making infection both automatic and pervasive, it changes the "basic zombie fiction 101", yet the show still keeps it. can't have your cake and eat it too...at least with a straight face
Well that's the other side of the coin. Everyone is infected already but the virus is dormant until you die, then it can reanimate you.
I mean, it's a work of fiction. I don't know what can be said to satisfy your thoughts on the subject other than you can go create your own zombie universe and make your own rules.

the virus is slowing down the rate of decomposition.
I can't really get into this discussion without mentioning the comics so I will stop

Why would a creature who can only be killed by a hard shot to the head die from starvation?

but they still need protein for the muscles to move the body, etc
that would wear out quickly, especially since they're constantly exposed
once you add animals to the mix, they wouldn't last very long at all

Can I ask a question about tonight's episode?

what is moving the body? magic?
or muscles, which require protein
Posted on 3/16/14 at 11:33 pm to SlowFlowPro
Not all of them are moving.

many meat eaters eat almost everything. hell bears and other animals eat shite. no matter how disgusting zombies may be, they still offer more nutrition than shite

At this point you are just trolling.

The zombies also eat the animals.
Posted on 3/16/14 at 11:35 pm to imjustafatkid
well the ones who are, which is the vast majority that we see, wouldn't last very long
this isn't about decomp. i'm not saying the bodies would rot. our bodies require stuff to run...i mean at a very basic level
