Tales of the walking dead reveal the scientific term for pedestrians

Warning: This story contains spoilers for the Sunday Amy/Dr. Everett episode of Tales of the Walking Dead. They walked. Biters. Non-interacting. hikers; Use of language and labels in the walking Dead The universe differs when describing the flesh-eating zombies who walk and bite and wait and roam to feed on the living. On Sunday’s “Amy / Dr. Everett” episode of the anthology series Tales of the walking deadNaturalist Dr. Chauncey Everett (Anthony Edwards) has built his own classification of the dead he searches and studies in The Dead Sector: a defined no-man’s land 40 feet deep, 200 meters wide of a man-made trench stretching over hundreds of miles. (Read the summary here.)

The dead zone is where Dr. Everett studies the term “Homo sapiens,” a term he coined for the dead now rising to the top of the food chain above Homo sapiens. “Homo” is the Latin word for “human” and “mortuus” is derived from “the dead”.

A decade after the apocalypse, Dr. Everett has spent years tracking down and trying to understand the complex migration patterns of Homo mortuus, or pedestrians, which he notes are largely manipulated by the presence of sound, indicating the presence of potential prey. Everett’s research focuses on certain samples – the “sunflower sample,” the “gamma sample” and the “21 sample” – that he tags with collar transmitters to track as they move as part of a large herd.

Unlike Alpha (Samantha Morton) and the Whisperers, who wear masks to walk with the dead, Everett camouflages himself in a jacket made of Homo mortuus leather to study the herd closely.

“My job is to monitor, collect and analyze data and never interfere,” Everett told Amy (Bobby Liu), the settlement that crosses from the other side of the trench claimed by “silo,” the less scientific name for its group of the dead. Everett explains that Homo sapiens is a part of nature, whose life work is to study and record the psychology of behavior and migration patterns in this area restored by nature.

Everett reveals that he was part of a research team studying the environment since transformation – the fall of civilization due to the global spread of an unknown virus – until the group defected. At the secluded ranger station, Everett and his former colleague, Dr. Moseley, continued their search together until Moseley succumbed to cancer. Moseley is Specimen 21, who makes Everett vow not to bring him down – but to study his resurrected corpse as part of a Homo mortuus roaming the Dead Sector.
