Method: Retrospective descriptive observational study. 721 care records of bitten patients were analyzed in the district of Ate (Lima-Peru), during the period 2015-2018. Causality was estimated using the odds ratio (OR) and the statistical association with the Chi-square test. Results: 53,6% of the cases were in men. The mean age was 29,6 years. Also, 95% of   the attacks were caused by dogs.  However, children between 0 and 11 years old (OR:1,78; IC: 1,26-2,49) had a higher risk of being bitten by known animals in the craniofacial region (OR: 2,31; IC: 1,34-3,98). Conclusion: The results allowed us to identify that the characteristics of mammalian bite injuries vary according to the aggressor species, age and gender of the victim. Objetivo: Describir las características clínicas y epidemiológicas de las mordeduras de mamíferos en el distrito de Ate, Lima-Perú. Método: Estudio observacional descriptivo retrospectivo. Se analizaron 721 fichas de atenciones de pacientes mordidos en el distrito de Ate (Lima-Perú), durante el periodo 2015-2018. Se estimó la casualidad mediante el odds ratio (OR) y la asociación estadística con la prueba de Chi cuadrado. Resultados: El 53,6% de los casos fueron en hombres. La media de la edad fue 29,6 años. Asimismo, el 95% de los ataques fueron causados por perros. No obstante, los niños entre 0 y 11 años (OR:1,78; IC: 1,26-2,49) tuvieron un mayor riesgo de ser mordidos por animales conocidos en la región craneofacial (OR: 2,31; IC: 1,34-3,98). Conclusión: Los resultados permitieron identificar que las características de las lesiones por mordeduras de mamíferos varían según la especie agresora, edad y género de la víctima. Objetivo: Descrever as características clínicas e epidemiológicas das mordidas de mamíferos no distrito de Ate, Lima-Peru. Método: Estudo observacional descritivo retrospectivo. Foram analisadas 721 fichas de atendimento a pacientes mordidos no distrito de Ate (Lima-Peru), no período 2015-2018. A chance foi estimada por meio do odds ratio (OR) e a associação estatística, com o teste X-quadrado. Resultados: 53,6% dos casos foram achados em homens. A média de idade foi de 29,6 anos. Além disso, 95% dos ataques foram causados ​​por cães. No entanto, crianças entre 0 e 11 anos (OR: 1,78; IC: 1,26-2,49) apresentaram maior risco de serem mordidas na região craniofacial por animais conhecidos (OR: 2,31; IC: 1,34-3,98). Conclusão: Os resultados permitiram identificar que as características das mordidas em mamíferos variam de acordo com a espécie do agressor, idade e gênero da vítima.
