==Trivia==
*Shere Khan says: "You're beginning to try my patience, Baloo"; a reference to The Jungle Book.
*Buzz tells Baloo: "Watch out for that tree!"; a reference to George of the Jungle.
*Baloo tells Dr. Axolotl: "Dr. Axolotl, I presume?" a reference to Sir Henry Morton Stanley's line when he found Dr. David Livingstone in Africa.
*Bullethead was based off The Rocketeer, whose movie came out several months later.
*The first line of Dr. Axolotl's call to Baloo at the police station is reversed and sped up. When reveresed and slowed down, the line is in fact that of Louie saying "Yeah, any minute now, kiddo!"
