Horrible, Violent Movie - Listed in NETFLIX FOR KIDS - No Wonder It's Rated PG

Looked like a sweet girls movie on NETFLIX FOR KIDS, my 5-year-old picked to watch. Movie started off with a standard musical song from cheetah family.

Suddenly, a mature tree flies through the air as though King Kong hurled it. Forest shakes with terrifying animal sounds. Then a menacing mechanical digger with 2 digging arms chases and thrashes at them. It drives the terrified aminal family into a gully. The mother & child cheetah flee separately in an extended terrifying chase scene.

Father Cheetah desperately throws baby cheetah to safety when mother and baby are surrounded my many monster de-foresters (?).

Inexplicably a rifle appears, is loaded. Father leaps and is shot in chest/neck/between eyes (?) by killer. I think that was 10 minutes in.

That is when we turned it off. NETFLIX really deliver some horrifying fare for children and adults from around the world. That is why they cannot be trusted. It's a real shame.
