Episode Details

Beavers are biting people in Maryland state parks—and rabies is the scary twist. A 10-year-old girl was attacked three times at Seneca Creek State Park, and a dead beaver nearby tested positive for rabies. This marks the third such attack this summer, with two others already reported at Cunningham Falls State Park—over 30 miles away. Officials are closing off areas to search for more sick animals, while reminding everyone that rabies is deadly without treatment but preventable with vaccines. The culprit beaver vanished after the attack, slipping away even as crews raced to find it. A chilling reminder: nature’s familiar faces can turn dangerous when disease strikes.
