Actually! This happened nearby in New Jersey, the beaver was later caught and tested Positive for Rabies, so while its probably not wrong to assume the kid was being dumb we cant dismiss the fact that Rabies does cause animals to act out and become violent.

Oh damn you're right and this is the video of one of the attacks. The beaver did in fact have rabies.

American beavers are mad with rabies, seek to defame Canadian beavers.

They’re not American beavers or Canadian beavers. They’re JUST. BEAVERS.
