Wounded. This term is found in fiction and various works in many eras and cultures. It can often be heard in the context of memories of war, hunting, or animal attacks.
The term "bite wound" has two meanings that describe two different injuries sustained by an animal as a result of being bitten by another animal. This injury could be, for example, a wound on the skin that bleeds, but it could also mean inflammation of parts of the body inside it or the appearance of growths or nerve nodes called “bites” or “duck teeth” on it.
Here is a brief description of both cases:
Wounded with Blood: A bitten animal receives an external wound on the surface of the skin or internal organs that bleeds easily. Bleeding brings relief, and in most cases the animal heals quickly.
Example: Livestock often injure their feet or legs while grazing fields and meadows from falling on sharp rocks and other uneven ground. Such wounds may bleed because the superficial veins within the wounded animal's skin are easily damaged.
Inflammatory Bite: The bite causes swelling or inflammation in the animal's abdomen, including internal organs, blood, and tissue. Fluid in the internal organs loses its normal level of internal pressure and slowly leaks out, causing inflammation of the internal structures. The common name "bird bite" is used as a synonym for the terminology of "inflammatory wounds".
Inflammation often leads to the formation of growths or lumps (scales), as well as a decrease in tone and appetite in the animal. It may also exhibit behavioral changes such as increased aggression or irritability. Animals begin to exhibit strange movements and loss of coordination, which greatly complicates their ability to move their bodies.
Cancer caused by an inflammatory wound can result from several causes, of which the amount of bacteria killed or infected is one of the main factors. This is caused by the fact that when a bite or wound occurs, a large amount of contaminated water enters the animal's body, which is not easy to get rid of. Stress levels and attacks from surrounding predators likely also play a role.
