Veterinary Record, 1975
Electrocution was considered to have caused 28 deaths in a house of 109 fat pigs. Post mortem examination showed haemorrhages at varying sites. Another 35, showing varying degrees of paralysis, were sent for slaughter. In most of these the pelvis was fractured and in some the vertebral column in the lumbosacral region.

Analysis of Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Red Kite Milvus milvus Electrocution
Ardeola (Madrid), 2020Summary. The Spanish Castilla y León region is one of the most important wintering areas in Europe for the Red Kite Milvus milvus. At the same time, the steepest population declines of Red Kite have been recorded there, electrocution by power lines being

Electrocution is a rare mode of suicide. In Sri Lanka, where the suicide rate is extremely high, ingestion of liquid pesticides is the commonest method used. The case of a 34-year-old labourer of the Electricity Board, who committed suicide using 220–240 volt domestic electricity supply is described. He had been suffering from a depressive illness for

The Use of Mobile Nesting Platforms to Reduce Electrocution Risk to Ferruginous Hawks
The Journal of raptor research, 2020. Electrocution on low-voltage power lines is a well-known source of mortality for raptors. Electrocution risk is particularly high for large raptors that can bridge components and make lethal contact, and for raptors living in open landscapes where ...

A wife was found dead by her husband, lying in a tiled bath on a cast concrete floor, with a 1 kW electric radiator immersed in the bath water. Initially the case was treated as accidental death, but the police charged the husband with murder on the grounds that his wife could not have died in the manner he described.

Deaths due to the passage of electric current through the body are most often accidental, although suicides and homicides may occasionally occur. Electrical energy represents electron flow, or current, between two points with different potentials, measured in voltage.

Two cases of homicidal electrocutions are reported. A woman and her young son were killed in 1980 by her ex-husband. The criminal used electrical force as a method of killing. He wound flexible conducting wires around the limbs of the victims and switched on the current.
