A day at the zoo



The 1937 Cinematograph Films (Animals) Act makes it an offence to distribute or exhibit a film whose creation involved actual cruelty to an animal.
Many other countries have similar attitudes towards animal cruelty in films, even if they are not enshrined in law. In general, most recent mainstream productions, particularly in the US, are supervised by organisations such as the American Humane Association to ensure that the welfare of animals is paramount during the film-making process.
