Elvis Presley's real-life chimpanzee Scatter, who inspired the character of the same name in Netflix's Agent Elvis, was known for his outrageous behavior, including wearing clothes, drinking whiskey, and pulling up women's dresses. He was rumored to have been poisoned to death by a maid who he had bitten and scared by grabbing her wig. Scatter was purchased by Elvis in 1961 and was a beloved pet, but his behavior was not appreciated by Elvis's staff and friends.
