I think those Disneyish talking animal characters are a terrible image to expose to children. It not only anthropomorphizes the entire animal kingdom (usually through the use of racial stereotypes, monkeys as black people for example) but idealizes an incredibly unrealistic vision of nature. Children would be better off understanding that animals do not talk with each other (certainly not with animals of other species!) but rather eat each other at random.
The lion that strikes down a gazelle isn't evil, it's just fucking hungry.
