Was pointed to 'Real Life: Improbable Weapon User' page on Tv Tropes has a few of these :

Someone in New Zealand was charged with assault with a weapon - to wit, a hedgehog. Seriously.

Not content with NOT being the most improbable weapon user, Florida Man was once charged with Assault with a Deadly Weapon, when he threw a baby alligator at a Wendy's Fast food attendent.

Also FROZEN Squirrels !!!

Fortean Times had an article of a African Elephant flailing largre (soon to be dead) LIZARD around & cracking it's 4 to 5 foot body like a whip ! Like the Chimp examples above it's not particularly nice but shows it's not just a human(oid) trait .
