a,bSignificant (P < 0.05, chi-square, 2-tailed) aincrease and bdecrease in no. of muzzle injuries in adolescent compared with preadolescent and adult baboons.
c
Significantly (P < 0.05, Fisher exact, 2-tailed) increased prevalences of IED and PS in baboons with periorbital and scalp compared with muzzle injuries.
