toxoplasmosis doesn't actually do that to mice. It makes them less scared, but iirc, not even so much that they don't flee.

it's one of those studies that got blown up into a worldwide news story sensation even though the actual paper didn't say what headlines claimed it did. I don't know if it was ever proven replicable or not, either.
