A horse should receive a tetanus vaccine annually. This is a preventative measure, as the causative bacterium (Clostridium tetani) is ubiquitous in the environment and horses are extremely sensitive to the exotoxins that produce clinical signs of tetanus.
Generally, a tetanus shot is not specifically required for a seagull bite unless the wound is deep, dirty, or if you haven't had a tetanus booster in the last 5 to 10 years. Tetanus is more commonly associated with injuries from rusty metal or dirty objects. However, it's important to clean the wound thoroughly and monitor for signs of infection. If you're unsure or have concerns, it's best to consult a healthcare professional.
Tetanus is a disease that affects the muscles and the respiratory system. The difference between tetanus and TIG or tetanus immunoglobulin is that the latter is a form of preventative vaccine for tetanus.
it wouldn't hurt to get a tetanus shot, but you definitely need to see a doctor. anytime you have a puncture wound from an animal bite, there is a VERY high chance of get a blood infection that can be extremely serious!!! if the animal is wild or abnormally vicious, you may need to get a rabies shot. if a human develops signs of rabies, it is too late!

If you get hurt by a construction nail, first clean the wound gently with soap and water to remove any debris. Apply an antiseptic and cover it with a sterile bandage. If the injury is deep, bleeding heavily, or shows signs of infection (such as redness or swelling), seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, ensure your tetanus vaccination is up to date, as puncture wounds can pose a risk for tetanus infection.
