The man is believed to have been on a fishing trip at Lake Shestakov in Belarus with two friends when they spotted the animal on the side of the road. They stopped to take a picture of the creature, but as the victim approached the beaver it reportedly leapt on him, biting him on the leg.

Attacks by beavers are not unheard of! Last year in the U.S. two girls were mauled by a beaver in a lake in Virginia as they swam and more recently, an 83-year-old U.S. woman was bitten as she swam in Lake Barcroft.
