1. **”The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” (2012)**: There have been reports that during the filming of this production, several animals used suffered injuries. According to the New Zealand Humane Society, there were cases of horses and sheep being injured during filming.

2. **“Life of Pi” (2012)**: During the filming of one of the tiger scenes in the movie, there were allegations that the tiger’s trainer, who was attached to the production, assaulted the animal. However, these allegations have been disputed by the production team and have not been confirmed.

3. **”Apocalypse Now” (1979)**: During the film’s famous opening scene, in which helicopters attack a Vietnamese village, a real buffalo was slaughtered. This caused controversy and led to debates about the ethics of using animals in films.

4. **“The Adventures of Milo and Otis” (1986)**: This Japanese film faced criticism for its filming practices, with allegations that several animals were injured or killed during filming. Although the allegations were denied by the production team, they still raised concerns about animal welfare in film.
