One thing about the premise of the show that kinda bugs me... Why haven't the walking dead simply rotted out by now? They've shown full blown human skeletons lying about the country side, but by some magic the animated corpses don't rot as fast. They've never offered an explanation for this and it really doesn't make sense.
Maybe this is how the show/comics will end? All the walkers just rot away with too few living killed to replenish the kinds of numbers needed to keep civilization from starting to reform.
Otherwise I agree with Thena: there are walkers in various states of decay. The fresher ones were the recently killed.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
