Increased incidence of wild-animal attacks has made these a serious threat to public health in Kashmir. To establish patterns of injury and management, 35 case histories were reviewed.

A multidisciplinary approach and aggressive management are necessary to prevent death and provide acceptable cosmetic and functional results.
