In an attempt to eat the young protagonist, a snake hypnotizes him and handles him with his snake coils in a way that can be very triggering to the audience (9:42-12:12 and 54:06-1:00:25). An elephant lines up his herd military style and smacks his wife's rear with a stick to get her rear end in line (15:16-15:26): it is meant to be comedic. The protagonist's panther guardian tries to pull him off a tree by his loincloth when the protagonist throws a tantrum (19:37-19:58). The loincloth stretches but does not come off when the panther lets go. A curious bear sniffs the protagonist, and the protagonist pushes him away and tells him to leave him alone. The bear picks him up and puts him back down again (21:27-22:16): it is clear the bear is a friendly character. Monkeys kidnap the protagonist and handle him against his will: the king of the monkeys shoots bananas into his mouth (32:42-33:46).
