It's kind of funny that this film was criticized for blood and gore and animal cruelty so they banned the film. (I think there was a term for banned gory films, "Nasty Something" idk) But they have not criticized Disney nature films for brutalizing animals. I think the ban was to cover of what the story actually is about and not just a gore fest. I don't think the majority of the people knew the film exist up until the some time in the early 2000.

Yeah I never heard of it until I studied it for a course in college...it’s tame compared to stuff you see now but back then they probably freaked out
