Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 9

In rural areas of India it is commonly seen in “Karahunnime” similar to Jallikattu event of taming bulls. Injuries, minor to fatal are caused by bull gores. The mechanics of bull goring are unique and often misleading and thence, they deserve reporting.
