Abstract Background Biting is one of the major medical and social problems in many tropical and subtropical regions, including the Middle East. Identification of clinical signs and other factors in children and adolescents is important. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and laboratory symptoms and prognosis of snake and scorpion bites in children under 18 years. Materials and Methods: This retrospective descriptive study was performed on 60 bite patients with an age range of one month to 18 years in Ali-Ibn-Abitaleb hospital of Zahedan, Iran. Demographic data, bite characteristics and clinical symptoms were recorded from files withdrawn from hospital data center. Frequency of studied variables was expressed as percentage. Results: From all patients 32 (53.3%) were male and 28 (46.7%) were female with mean age of 9.73 ± 4.26 years.

We recovered 47 bacterial species (28 genera and 14 families) from all samples with 51.1% of these belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. Fourteen species (29.8%) were detected in both crocodile species and 18 (38.3%) and 15 (31.9%) species were only detected in American and Morelet’s crocodiles, respectively. We recovered 35 bacterial species from all oral samples, of which 9 (25.8%) were detected in both crocodile species. From all cloacal samples, we recovered 21 bacterial species, of which 8 (38.1%) were detected in both crocodile species. The most commonly isolated bacteria in cloacal samples were Aeromonas hydrophila and Escherichia coli, whereas in oral samples the most common bacteria were A. hydrophila and Arcanobacterium pyogenes. The bacteria isolated represent a potential threat to crocodile health during conditions of stress and a threat to human health through crocodile bites, crocodile meat consumption or carrying out activities in crocodile habitat.

Scientific publications on crocodile attack cases in Indonesia are few with low validation which hinder optimal conflict mitigation efforts. The estuarine river of Kutai National Park is a natural habitat for saltwater crocodiles and mostly nearby dense settlements. This study aims to map the distribution of saltwater crocodiles and potential conflicts in the Kutai National Park area. To predict the distribution of saltwater crocodiles, we used Maximum Entropy MAXENT with its environmental predictors i.e. slope, altitude, distance from shore, distance from river, temperature, and habitat types (mangrove forest, freshwater swamp, and shrubs). MAXENT prediction showed that elevation was the most influential variable with AUC (Average Under Curve) value of 0.952. Settlements with activities occurring within one kilometer from the river and those adjacent to coastal areas proved to be the highest in human conflicts with crocodiles. Key words: conflict, crocodile, human, MAXENT INTRODUCTION There are only a few scientific publications that discuss crocodile attack cases in Indonesia. Information Human-wildlife conflict is one of the threats to the about crocodile attacks is often published in mass media decreasing population of some species of wildlife.

Email: adriankelly1000@yahoo. co.uk ABSTRACT African Nile crocodiles are the only species of crocodile consistently found across central and sub-Saharan Africa. A large and specifically aggressive species of the African Nile crocodile is solely responsible for almost all unprovoked attacks on humans, the exact incidence of which is unknown. The reported mortality rate of an African Nile crocodile attack is between 65-91% with up to 70% of surviving individuals with a bite of a limb ultimately requiring amputation. We describe an adult male patient whom, during the course of performing his daily duties, slipped on a riverbank and fell into the water where he was immediately seized on the left forearm by an African Nile crocodile. Through fighting back the African Nile crocodile released its hold and he was able to survive the attack and reach our unit. Despite relatively benign looking wounds the initial surgical exploration revealed the true extent of the underlying muscle damage and within hours a flexor compartment syndrome developed needing surgical management.

  • Clinical Urgent Care Management of Animal Bites and Stings
    Clinical Urgent Care Management of Animal Bites and Stings Urgent message: Because bite and stings can be sustained in a vari- ety of settings from many different animals and can transmit a wide variety of infectious agents, urgent care providers should have specific knowledge about treating wounds from mammals, nonmammals, and marine animals. ALEXANDER NATHANSON, MD Introduction ractitioners at urgent care centers often see patients Pwho have sustained animal bites or stings. In addition to causing structural damage to tissues, bites and stings expose patients to potentially dangerous bacteria from animal oral flora or bacteria from the surface of the skin. In rare cases, bites can result in exposure to the rabies virus, and infection with the virus carries an extremely poor prognosis. Therefore, the need for rabies prophylaxis must be addressed in almost all cases of mammalian bites. Urgent care providers should also have some familiarity with certain bites and stings from nonmammals that can cause harm through envenoma- tion, including snakes, scorpions, and marine wildlife such as stingrays, jellyfish, and siphonophores. Mammals Dogs Overview Dogs are responsible for about 80% of all animal bites in ©iStockPhoto.com the United States. The breeds commonly implicated are German shepherds and pit bull terriers. Most dog bites come from dogs known to the individual, and the inci- dence of biting is higher in dogs that have not been neutered. Dog bites can result in scratches, abrasions, Alexander Nathanson, MD, is an urgent care physician at CityMD in Brooklyn, New York.
