Animalicious is a documentary film released in 1999. It told the stories of five incidents in which animals had a profound impact on a person's life. It was produced and directed by Mark Lewis.

The Mad Squirrel

One story gave the account of a mad squirrel that was terrorizing the town. It would randomly come up to people and begin scratching them. Eventually, it was captured and euthanized. A necropsy determined the squirrel was not rabid. It is believed that the squirrel may have been fed by humans, thereby losing its inborn fear of them.

Among the victims were an elderly man putting a tablecloth out on his patio and a UPS employee making a delivery.

Wal-Mart Incident

Another segment featured a man from House Springs, Missouri, who was visiting his local Wal-Mart. While there, a parakeet flew into the man's face, causing him to be admitted to a hospital with whiplash. The man sued Wal-Mart and won.

Turkey Shoots Hunter

In Potosi, Missouri, a young man and his father decide to go turkey hunting shortly before hunting season actually begins. After the young man shot the turkey and threw it in the trunk, they hear thumping and find the turkey is still alive. When they exit the car, they hear a gunshot, and the man's father falls over, shot in the leg.

Chihuahua Eaten By Snake

An elderly widow in Los Angeles owns a Chihuahua, until one day when it goes through its dog door and never comes out. The dog was eaten by a snake, which had gotten loose from a neighbors' house.

Duck Falls on Woman's Head

Mhairi Kent, a British psychologist, hears a strange noise coming from her car one day and pulls over to investigate. As she stands up, a dead duck falls on her head, evidently having died in mid-air of a heart attack.
