A 55-year-old man was attacked by a Brazilian tapir (Tapirus terrestris) after surprising and stabbing the animal in his corn plantation. The victim received deep bites in the thighs, neck, and cervical areas, resulting in severe hemorrhage and death. This is the first report of a tapir incident resulting in death and is of interest because of the severity of the contusions and lacerations caused by the provoked animal.
一名55岁男子在其玉米种植园中惊吓并刺伤了一只巴西貘（南美貘）后，遭到该动物攻击。受害者的大腿、颈部和颈椎部位被深深咬伤，导致严重出血并最终死亡。这是首例有记录的貘伤人致死事件，鉴于这只被激怒的动物造成的挫伤和撕裂伤的严重程度，该事件值得关注。
