Arguably, since the Once-ler's family make him believe they support him when they really just want to benefit from his success.

They don't die, but are sent to live elsewhere once their home is polluted.

Although, there is a brief moment where it's seen responding to another character poking at it, so whether or not it's "dead" is unknown.

After Once-Ler chops down the first tree, the forest animals hold a small funeral service and look visibly somber.

All of the animals become visibly dejected as they're forced to leave their forest home.

Kinda. There’s a scene when the main character first goes out of town that is a bit high adrenaline with mild jump scares. (For a kids movie, that is.)

Technically, but it is brief and of the main character passing by a shower someone happens to be in.
