Alabama man who allegedly fed his 'attack squirrel' meth faces new charges

LIMESTONE COUNTY, Ala. (TND) — An Alabama man who was arrested in 2019 for allegedly keeping and training an "attack squirrel" by giving it methamphetamine now faces new charges.

Mickey Paulk, 39, was originally arrested in June 2019 and charged with possession of a wild animal, stolen property, and possession of a weapon by a felon.

Police alleged Paulk gave the squirrel, which he named "Deeznuts," meth so it would be more aggressive and attack intruders. The squirrel gained national fame when articles about Paulk's arrest first surfaced.
