SP - 527 EP - 530 VL - 55 IS - 6 N2 - Bites by terrestrial vertebrates, reptiles or mammals, represent a special risk in tropical regions. Envenomation is possible by a few lizards and many snakes. For mammals, tissular destructions due to the bite can be severe. Whatever is the offending animal, bites can further become infected by transmitted viruses or bacteria.
