Top Ten Reasons Why the Zombie Apocalypse Wouldn't Last Long

I'm going to go ahead and put them as a whole. Zombies would speed up in the decaying process in the heat of summer and freeze in winter. In spring and autumn, zombies may have a chance, though it is incredibly slim considering many animals are waking and preparing to go into hibernation at that time. Sure, in different regions, the seasons may be colder or warmer, but at some point in the year (summer for the south and winter for the north), several zombies would be no more.

Zombies, despite being "undead," would still go through all the decomposing processes, including the bacteria that breaks them down.

Let's face it, they happen every day. Humans always seem to be around when natural disasters occur, so would zombies. A zombie plus an earthquake, avalanche, tsunami, hurricane, tornado, volcanic eruptions, blizzards, flash floods, etc., wouldn't stand a chance, I'm afraid.

While it is rarer for natural disasters to happen around my area, zombies in Japan and California would receive loads of earthquakes.

That zombie wouldn't stand a chance against any tornado or other natural disaster.

A zombie apocalypse would mean just one big lunch for vultures, Tasmanian devils, crows, coyotes, bears, etc.

So if you slice their legs off, they would only be able to crawl. Unless you slice off their arms too.

Considering the copious amount of zombie media out there, it would be hard to see how people wouldn't already know how to fight back against them.

With all the pre-existing knowledge on zombies, the government and society as a whole would wipe them out in a matter of weeks, if not months.

It would most likely be like rabies. You must be bitten to get it. Even though movies make that appear to happen quickly, it would not. If that were the actual case, diseases such as rabies would be more common. If the virus were airborne, it might spread faster, but as usual, a way to contain it will be found.

Depending on the location, there may be heavy rains, extreme winds, sandstorms, etc. In heavy rain, a zombie wouldn't be able to withstand the wet area and would be clumsy. In extreme winds, since their muscle cells are dead, they wouldn't have the strength to move steadily.

It would take absolutely forever for zombies to get on every continent, considering all the bodies of water that surround us, even by plane or by boat.

Armies would be able to demolish zombies. In movies, it may appear like even high-tech weapons are not very useful against so many zombies. However, those weapons will be very useful when used with soldiers. Soldiers are well-trained, and zombies don't have weapons. This would surely make things easier for soldiers.

Furthermore, decaying zombies should not be able to move quickly because their muscles don't regenerate and because they are stiffened due to not stretching.

Who knows? Some people may just have immunity to the virus, like some people survived the Black Death because of a scarce gene that has since become more common.

When you die, bacteria in your body create gases, and they have nowhere to go, so they build up until you burst.

When a person dies and gets buried underground, insects such as maggots and beetles will take action. Even if you died on the surface and were never buried, the process will still continue.

Let's just say that you are standing in front of 10 zombies (far away, and they are very slow). They have insects on them. The insects will work together to digest the zombie faster, but the main problem is that the process is very slow. When the zombies are 1 meter away from you, nothing much would have changed because it will take weeks or even months for them to finally just be bones. Just shoot them in the head or something, so it's faster.

Maybe animals could eat them, but would that mean they get the virus too? Maybe. I'm not so sure right now, but if the insects don't get affected, wouldn't the animals? Oh well, that's all I have to say, and as always, have a great day. Please comment on anything I was wrong about, thank you.
