In the opening scene, some men and their dogs are chasing after something unseen. One of the dogs falls over a cliff, but is stopped by the leash it's wearing. They try and hoist it up, but he ends up falling. You don't hear it die, but there is a body shown when the sun comes up in the next scene. The second dog is shown later, alive, being rescued by a helicopter.

Reports state that a raccoon was beaten and traumatized during production.
A crew member called AHA’s Hollywood office to report that a raccoon was in danger of being beaten to death for a scene. Humane Officer Gordon Jones raced to the studio and stopped the action. “The actor had had enough of hitting the raccoon, and he was trying to go easy and fake it, but the director was screaming for him to keep going and hit it harder,” Jones said. He further added, “I asked them to stop, and they did. In the movie, the raccoon is thrown into a fire, but I made sure they used a dummy.”
Nonetheless, AHA rated the film Unacceptable for the animal abuse that occurred.

There is a lot of animal death, injury, and horror in this film. Avoid if you are remotely sensitive about animal harm.

There is nothing super bad, such as slurs, but there is a side plot of Native Americans opposing a logging company, and there are some insensitive things said about them.
