摘要：
Bear incidents are widely publicized, though serious incidents rarely occur. We describe here a case of human death caused by brown bear (Ursus arctos) feet. The brown bear is the biggest carnivore of Greece, reaching up to 200-300 kg weight. This is the first documented fatality involving a brown bear in Greece in which the victim died as a direct traumatic result of the attack.
