Penti Jylha survived unscathed after the hooligan beaver jumped him, trying to sink its teeth into his neck. Suddenly the beaver disappeared and next thing I knew it was hanging on my neck,'' said Jhyla.
Experts claims it's rare for beavers to attack people.
The shy beasts just usually retreat when disturbed, or slap their tails on the ground if they feel threatened. Fortunately, Jylha was wearing thick clothes to keep him warm, which protected him from the beaver's long teeth, reports Reuters. When I managed to shake off the beaver it just stayed staring at me from a few meters away,'' he said. All rights reserved.
