re: #102 Charles

When animals are used in stunts, serious precautions are taken to make sure they don’t get hurt.

Except in Mexico and some foreing countries. Look at old spaghetti Westerns, or Conan The Barbarian (filmed in Spain, I believe). Horse tripping is/was one of the most common stunts, and led to a lot of broken legs and dead animals. Absolutely barbaric.
