The funniest news coming out of Sweden since that old lady was caught with 11 swans in her apartment is the beaver attack that occurred yesterday. I read today in a Swedish newspaper that a four year old girl was attacked by a beaver when her father had stopped the car to film the magical creature. According to himself, he had not noticed that his daughter approached the beaver who was sitting peacefully in a field. And the gist of the article is to me the little girls own comment on the mauling. She said she thought "the beaver was stupid."
As she grows up and understands that animals don't really attack people out of stupidity, my bet is that she will hold disregard towards her father who let her approach a wild animal with sharp big teeth, claws and a powerful tail.
Apparently this is not the first beaver mauling in Sweden. In August last year, a grandmother who took a swim with her grandchildren got bit and whipped by this vicious amphibious rodent. And apparently, quite like in a cartoon, a beaver in Norway had a tree fall down over a bus back in 2003. The only person injured in the "accident", was ironically a veterinarian.
