Are the beginning, there are 2 “guard” dogs in the prisoner transport van. They are not only unharmed, but comforted in such a precious way.

While I deeply appreciate that this movie is very profoundly pro-animal and anti-humanity, if you even slightly care about animals, it is your worst nightmare.
I was NOT prepared.
It starts with a muntjac deer ensnared and hung by its neck found in the jungle by Dr Powell and his gorilla family at 1:03. Then it’s gets SO MUCH WORSE at 1:35-1:40 (minus several seconds to provide full avoidance). The entire gorilla family is straight up viciously slaughtered by poachers. All while Dr Powell watches and fights in absolute soul crushing horror. It’s graphic and genuinely TRAUMATIZING AF.
