Does this count or actually belong in this thread?!
I know the word 'beaver' has often been used in another conotation, but in this case, it's literally.
Damn!

Quote:Man, 35, who 'sexually assaulted dying beaver while high on crystal meth' avoids jail.Daily Star:
A man who is said to have subjected a dying animal to a horrific sexual assault while off his head on
drugs will not face jail, a court has ruled.
'Richard Delp, 35, was accused of sexually assaulting a beaver after it had been hit by a car.
A woman, Whitney Nycole, claimed she had found Delp lying down with the animal with his trousers undone.
Whitney had first discovered the poor creature just after it had been hit by a vehicle. As it was still breathing,
she rushed to grab supplies to help the animal.
Whitney Nycole had first seen the animal and returned home to get supplies for it.
She later told Officer Zach Moore she had gone home to get a box to carry the injured animal to a vet, according
to police and court documents. When she returned, she found Delp, who was lying on the ground and appeared
to be cuddling the beaver.
But when she got closer, she discovered he was semi-naked.
When Whitney asked what Delp was doing, he replied: "it's just a beaver."
The horrific alleged assault happened in Columbia Park, Kennewick, in the US state of Washington last September.
Delp was arrested on charges of felony animal cruelty and possession of methamphetamine.
Tragically, the beaver did not survive.
After his arrest, Delp is said to have admitted committing a sexual act with the animal. Delp, who is homeless, also
told police he was high on crystal meth when he carried out the assault. He was held in Benton County Superior Court
on $5,000 (£3,888) bail.
In court, his lawyer requested a mental health evaluation, and on Thursday, Prosecutor Craig Swenson confirmed he
is unable to stand trial. Swenson said: "Because of these facts the State is dismissing our charges without prejudice
against Mr Delp and authorising Eastern State Hospital to evaluate him for civil commitment."
He will stay in hospital until staff there decided that there isn't a strong likelihood he will commit the same crime again.
Meth addiction is spiralling out of control in many parts of the US, with 300 deaths from crystal meth in 2017 in Washington
alone...'
Damn!
