Teen Airlifted After Beaver Bite | Annapolis News

A 13-year-old boy was bitten by a beaver at Cunningham Falls State Park, requiring an airlift to Johns Hopkins for treatment. The park’s swimming beach was immediately closed as officials launched a search for the beaver to test for rabies. One beaver was found, but the hunt continued to ensure no others were involved. Testing is underway by the Frederick County Health Department, and park officials are working with state wildlife experts to determine when it’s safe to reopen the beach — while the rest of the park remains open for visitors.
