Abstract
Face, has always been the point of attraction in a person’s physique, any disfigurement of that, caused either due to any sort of trauma or by animal attack, would lead to not only functional impairment but also severe psychological disturbance. The reasons for these injuries may vary from one country to another and even within the same country. Injuries due to bear mauling are most commonly seen in rural areas, but in developing countries like ours, stripping the wildlife of their natural habitation brings them close to more populated areas in the search of food. Increase in tourism may be another cause of these types of injuries. We herein report a rare presentation of bear maul injury in adult patient in maxillofacial region, and the purpose of this clinical report is to discuss the increase in incidence of such injuries and its subsequent management.
