Ok, so if you get wounded by a Zombie or die, you turn, but the math doesn't work. The only way I can see it working is if the Zombie's stop feeding once the victim dies, as they only apparently go after living flesh. If this was the case wouldn't there more Zombie's around that basically look like chewed up road kill?

Too much free time on my hands I know ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8987807.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8987807.page GMT
Keep in mind too that TWD already has a system in place for turning people. The zombie virus was airborne and now anyone that dies comes back. So if they die from starvation, gunshot, suicide, whatever, they turn. The bite just kills you, but the established virus is what turns folks into zombies. Those are the ones you see more of.

But you do occasionally get a zombie in a puddle of ick that was turned after being chewed on for an hour or two. Not often, but they have some scenes with them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8987814.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8987814.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989083.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989083.page GMT ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989191.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989191.page GMT
In that collapse of society, I'd be willing to bet more people died from non-zombie causes, the being bitten, and then just stood back up.

Also, like others said. If Zombie Bob came up and bit me on the arm, I'm not just going to fall over a die. I'm going to run. Then turn into Zombie Jimbob.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989243.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989243.page GMT
Also, I'd like to think that there ARE half-eaten zombies out there. It's just that zombies tend to herd-up in groups that roam around. It you are a legless zombie, that is going to hinder your ability to keep up with the pack. You probably just drag yourself somewhere and go inert. The more mobile zombies are the ones we see more often. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989346.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/706751/8989346.page GMT
