摘要：

A man attacked by a pet zebra suffers multiple bite wounds to his right arm and generalized trauma after being dragged to the ground and pinned by the animal. He was transported to the emergency department (ED) by the local emergency medical service (EMS) with a tourniquet in place for nearly 60 min. The man's injuries included extensive soft tissue damage, an open fracture and dislocation of his right elbow, and a soft tissue injury to his right ear. His clinical course was complicated by severe necrosis of the soft tissue of the right forearm requiring transhumeral amputation just above the condyles. Ongoing infection and the development of phantom limb pain complicated his recovery.
