  • Adaptation Displacement: Wait... There's a book?
  • Getting Crap Past the Radar: When Vixey sees a family of seven birds and says, "I think 6 would be just right" in a very hint-hint way to Tod.
  • Nightmare Fuel:
    • Once again, Everything Is Worse With Bears.
    • Nevermind the confrontation between Tod and Copper at the den. You want to see what a real Death Glare looks like? That kind of snarl is what an animal does when it intends to defend something to the death - and no less.
  • Sequelitis: About the only two things that save the country western-infested sequel are the Cool Old Lady and, outside-universe-wise, Reba McEntire.
  • Tear Jerker: The Goodbye May Seem Forever sequence. And how.
    • The part at the very beginning when Tod's mother, running away from a hunter with the young kit in her mouth, sets Tod down by the fence and then gives him a couple licks-- as if saying good-bye-- before running for the hill and getting shot as soon as she's out of view.
    • There's also the moment when Todd and Copper face off in the climatic sequence, snarling with fangs bared and ready for battle. As much as it's a thrilling scene, it's also heartbreaking that two childhood friends have come to this.
    • The part where Copper defends a barely conscious Todd after his fall. From his own master no less. If that didn't push you to tears, the small whimper he gives to Amos will.
  • The Woobie: Tod - his mother is killed when he's only a baby, he gets chased and shot at by Chief and Slade, respectively (twice!), his best friend disowns him and wants him dead, his owner drops him off in a wildlife preserve for his own safety leaving him without survival skills and a friend in the world, and on top of it all, his neighbor (the badger) is a complete Jerkass to him. Things get a lot better after he meets Vixey, though...then worse...then better.
