threat and horror
A crowd scatters in panic when a bull is stung by a bee and runs wildly through a town festival. Ranch hands improvise protective shields and run from bulls as the animals come after them during a test of strength. The bulls are aware that if they are not chosen to take part in bullfights they will be consigned to an abattoir that looms over the ranch. In one scene, two bulls launch a rescue mission to save one of their friends who is in the abattoir and have a narrow escape when the machinery is activated accidentally. A bull enters a bullring where a matador prepares for the contest, but the bull refuses to fight and the scene plays out as a slapstick chase around the ring. The threat in this and other scenes are generally played for comic effect with reassuring outcomes.
language
There is very mild bad language which includes uses of 'butt', 'jerk', 'blooming', 'numpty' and 'Jeez'.
additional issues
There is very mild rude humour as a goat regurgitates various objects it has eaten.

Cuts:
This film was originally seen for advice, at which stage the company was informed it was likely to be classified PG uncut but that their preferred U could be achieved by removing a single use of mild bad language ('bloody') and reducing various scenes of mild threat and dangerous behavious involving electricity. When the film was submitted for formal classification all these issues had been addressed satisfactorily and the film was classified U.
