A large amount of decomposition, but entirely uniform.My diagnosis would be a fast growing fungus, which extretes various preserving and antibiotical compounds to extend the useful live of the cadaver. It's not sporing yet so infection risk is minimal. Textbook dispatch.

Unfortunately the fungi within the zombie acts as the central nervous system, as the nerves are dead.Decapitation is unlikely to incapacitate.

I've always wondered - what's the entropy of a zombie?I mean, they're decaying and becoming less organised, but they still put some energy into being undead and staggering around. And then there's the fungus. Surely that's putting some energy into making their green-ness more uniformly green?

Depends on the cause, there is always "something" alive in the zombie, unless the cause is supernatural, then a wizard did it.I'd imagine that the fungus would largely survive off fat reserves, with occasional added BRAAANZ when it gets a kill.

Zombies defy scientific explanation.They are powered by bad juju. Virus, fungus etc infected humans are NOT ZOMBIES.
