‡As there were three injuries in which two body parts of the injured participants were injured, the sum of “n” is 67, not 64. However, the denominator is still the number of injured persons (N=64), so the sum of “%” is more than 100%.
†Others included rabbits, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters and so forth.
