Sex & Nudity

mild

A lady's skirt flops up a few times but nothing explicit except for bra and panties are shown since this is a PG film. Most of the Kalaharis are wearing hardly anything (Just a flap of leather in a thong style), only their rears are visible as they are completely uncovered and are visible throughout the movie. The women of a remote tribe don't all wear cloth around their chests. Most members of the tribe wear underwear-like garments which are in a thong fashion and expose their rear end cheeks, and this is seen several times. A boy urinates, but we only see the stream.


Violence & Gore

mild

There are lots of skulls of animals in a scene or two. A lady is scared of the wild African animals. She jumps up trees several times and in another scene accidentally turns on the helicopter scaring a tiger away that was growling at her. A lady fills her handbag with rocks, threatening to throw them at an animal that keeps stealing her can of water. Later, she hits two guys with her handbag that still contain the rocks. Two game wardens tie people up 2x2 and another guy. A game warden tucks his gun in his pants and a second later it slides down his pant leg. He tries to get it, but it goes off wounding him. A little blood on the pants is shown. A game warden tries shooting at people several times with a rifle. Finally, he gets a can of gasoline pours gas on the dead grass, then uses his rifle to start a fire trapping the people. A soldier chases another with his jeep. Later, the other soldier does it to the other one. A man is stung by a scorpion. A kid is trapped in a water tank. The other finds something so the younger one can climb out and uses a rifle. The kid climbs on that, his foot depresses the trigger and the gun goes off but misses the other kid's head. A honey badger clamps down on a man's foot and the man drags him all over. He manages to distract him with some beer, cracker, and cheese but only to break free and still have the creature go after him for a very long time. Eventually, the creature keels over.
