On a farm in Australia, a farmer has been fatally injured by a rooster while gathering eggs. In the chicken coop, the animal went on the 76-year-old and fatally injured them by biting his left leg, as the TV station ABC reported.
According to a study for the University of the South Australian city of Adelaide, the farmer suffered from varicose veins. The injuries caused by the animal caused her circulation to collapse and she bleed to death.
Professor Roger Byard of the University of Adelaide took the case as an opportunity to point out the risks of varicose veins. "This shows us how vulnerable the elderly are and how easy it is to damage varicose veins," said Byard ABC. His study was published by the journal "Journal of Forensic Science, Medicine and Pathology".
