I personally think both deaths are less ambiguous and found it upsetting. The bird is injured and seems depressed when it ‘ascends’ and is never seen again. We were confused at first, but the cat seemed to grieve the bird.

Second, the whale. I don’t think this is ambiguous at all. The cat even wants to save him and he’s beached. I found it very upsetting, especially since animal peril is such a huge theme.

The movie has no spoken dialogue, nor signed dialogue, saying goodbye in it would be impossible

I mean, this should be a post-apocalyptic scenario, so I don't know if we can consider them to be abandoned. Maybe they were just born in a world without humans? Anyway it's not to be taken for granted.

I would say yes - the crew from the boat decide to take the bad dogs (that were chasing the cat) with them. The dogs are still bad though and end up breaking the monkey's precious item.

There is a really triggering scene for any survivors out there:


The bird is assaulted by her flock. The leader crushes her head into the ground with his claws. The bird tries to free itself but is unable to, we see its suffering and helplessness. The rest of the tribe stands on its wings and breaks them. The scene is heartbreaking.

Sort of, but not substance abuse. A lemur is obsessed with material possessions and that obsession defines the character for most of the film.

This is an animated film. No animals were harmed in real life, so the YES votes are definitely trolling. Should be 100% NO votes.

only fish clearly die, and it is not violent. a bird rises and disappears in a rapture-like scenario that is left to interpretation. a whale is shown dying after being beached, but is alive and safe in a post-credits scene. most animals shows in peril, even for a second, are shown alive and well later.

Dogs fighting outside of human intervention is not "dog fighting" as normally thought of with this term which usually means humans intentionally forcing and raising dogs to fight.

No, but there is a scene where the dogs and capybara are in the boat that got stuck in a tree that is hanging over a cliff/deep cavern. The animals desperately try to rescue them before the tree collapses and the boat falls into the abyss. All the animals are rescued safely.

The only characters are animals (cat, dogs, capybara, Secretary birds, Ring-tailed lemurs, whale), so they're all incapable of making obscene gestures.

Additionally, no words are spoken throughout the entire movie; only animal, nature, & object sound effects.

During pivotal scene there is some magical swirling imagery with a mild flashing effect. Also a couple of underwater sequences with some strobe-like camera movement.

No, but due to the *strictly* visual storytelling, one might draw comparisons to the Genesis Flood, the Rapture, & the idea of heaven from Christianity with the events of the story.
