  • Na lava betg la morsa: ils ospitals pon analisar il tissi ch'è restà sin la pel per tscherner il dretg antiserum.

  • Na tutga, na piglia e na tizza mai in animal selvadi, gnanc in pitschen, ed era sch'el para da durmir u d'esser mort.
  • Dà spazi a l'animal. Sche ti scuntras in, resta calm, va plaun enavos e lascha ir el per sia via.
