SEX/NUDITY 1 - A Jack-in-the Box tries to kiss a girl, and a duck kisses another bird.

VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A volcano/beast/fire-breathing bird comes to life, destroying all the natural surroundings and killing a woman (she is supposed to represent nature at large). A man chops off his hand (played for laughs). We see three people who are obviously depressed; one stands on top of a building, looks over the edge and appears to contemplate suicide. A toy soldier is knocked down a drain and appears to be drowning (he survives); also, a mouse is caught in a whirlpool and looks like he could drown, and a flood accompanied by stormy weather threatens to drown several animals. Birds chase a baby whale and the whale is caught in an iceberg, almost struck by lightning, and separated from its parents (they do reunite). A Jack-in-the-Box drops a toy soldier, throws blocks at it, and also tries to slice it with a machete. A toy soldier hits a Jack-in-the-Box with a gun, a man whips a mouse with a broom, a mouse chops up a broom with an axe, several birds peck on another bird, a duck hits a rhinoceros in the buttocks with a porcupine, a bunch of animals fall on a duck, a fish swallows a toy soldier, a bird is thrown off an ark, a broom walks over a mouse, a duck falls out of a hammock, a butterfly spits water on another, wolves prepare to eat a bunny (but they don't go through with it), a girl is almost hit by a car, a girl falls down and runs into a wall, a girl throws paint on a man, and a mother yells at her daughter. One "jump" scene in which a fire-breathing bird scares a woman.
