Dead mice pinned to a table, a decapitated crows head and a dead baby deer in the first 10 minutes or so.

This is a nature-based folk horror movie about life and death, so some themes of animal death were expected. But it wasn’t nearly as much or as bad as I expected. I didn’t get time stamps but I tried to list things in the order they were shown.

Some dead animal carcasses are shown throughout the movie - a decomposing baby deer (which Solveig heals and is later seen alive) and three mice pinned to a table in the first few minutes of the movie. We see the decomposing snout/skull of a canine in a later transition scene

Solveig eats a dead, preserved butterfly

Solveig takes an egg from a snake’s nest while the mother snake watches. The mother snake seems curious but unbothered

A live slug/snail is mashed along with herbs in a mortar and pestle and used to make a tea

The previously mentioned snake egg is used in a ritual in which it is sliced open and crushed. You get a quick side glimpse of the fetus inside the egg, and the bloody contents are shown after it is crushed

A seemingly sick or dying snake enters into Solveig’s mouth while alive. She swallows the snake and later regurgitates it as it enters the mouth of Mickey. The snake is alive and a willful participant
