There are some brief discussions of animal abuse - for example, when introducing a patient, it might be mentioned that they had previously been kept in an abusive environment. However, no abuse is actually depicted. Dr. Oakley has to get a little personal for some tasks (e.g., rectal palpation for checking pregnancy in large mammals) and rowdy animals may be handled more roughly. Some animals freak out because they can’t understand what's happening, but everyone is careful not to hurt the animals. (The handlers and crew are hurt more often than the animals are tbh)

S1E2: a caribou is shot and killed for food, and you see its body for a few seconds. They don’t show the field dressing, but don’t look too closely when they come back to camp. S2E5: freshly caught hooligan (fish) are shown in containers - some are still twitching; S4E2: partial skeleton of unidentified animal (~16:00); S5E1: boar eating an unidentified animal
