Apparently, the process the filmmakers obtained the lion cubs used in the film was highly unethical. Boycotts were organized against the film, as well.
Per 911animalabuse.com, a data-gathering website of names connected with animal cruelty:
“To create Mia and the White Lion, (Kevin) Richardson purchased six newborn white lion cubs (two males and four females) from Ukutula Wildlife Park, a notoriously abusive South African “lion mill” and petting park with known ties to the canned hunting industry — the very thing the film claims to be against. Ukutula ships cubs which have outgrown petting to private overseas zoos and their “other farm,” a canned hunting ranch called Kunkuru”

I would say the scene where a crossbow shot doesn’t kill a lion right away counts as abuse and torture.
There’s another scene where a person bops a lion cub on the head with a flashlight due to it testing her and getting pushy. It didn’t appear to hurt the lion, just surprised it, but I did hear a person in my theater’s audience yelp at that moment, so it might be a mild shock to some. The cub is shown purring afterwards, if that helps.

A lion chases after an ostrich to kill and eat it. The kill is not shown or heard, but we do see the lion carrying the dead carcass around for a minute.
We see plenty of raw meat and animal body parts thrown to the lions during feeding time (looked like an antelope leg and a ribcage).
We briefly see a YouTube video of trophy hunters firing at lions and other animals.
