Not necessarily, but one main character as a child was forced by his father to see a dead man's mutilated body to show him what happens to gay men.

There's a scene when they shoot a moose and are later shown eating it's meat. A sheep is graphically shown dead in a field, with it's insides ripped apart (on full screen for a few seconds). There are coyote furs decorating a part of their cite.

No animals were actually harmed, but there's a scene with a gutted sheep that looks so incredibly realistic it could fool you into thinking otherwise. (At least to me, someone who's seen this stuff irl)

Maybe not excessive in terms of frequency, but excessive in terms of severity. There's a sheep whose body was ripped open by a predator. You also see a scene of Jack being murdered pretty brutally.

Ennis mentions this happening while telling the story of what happened to a local gay man when he was a child. During a flashback, you see the man’s corpse from far away with bloodstains around the crotch of his pants. The actual injury is not shown.

Perhaps, depending on how sensitive you are. The tent/sex scene is pretty dark and heavy, and quite zoomed in. I mean it's a tent with two full grown men in it, so it's gonna be a little cramped. But there's no sense of panic or distress from the characters due to these conditions, and certainly no actual mention or even symptoms of claustrophobia.
