But I first watched the original film in the 90s and Farthing Wood had already desensitised me to animal on animal violence I guess.
The book is quite dark in a couple of places though not exactly life-ruiningly traumatic. I've read it at least four times, twice when I was a kid and I don't feel worse for it.

(Anonymous) 2018-11-10 12:43 am (UTC)(link)Yes on Farthing Wood as well! Though the bit of that that got me wasn't the violence, as such, it was what happened to Badger. That was so hard to watch happen.
I always liked Watership Down as a kid. Book and movie. It was definitely dark, things like the shining wire warren really freaked me out, but it always felt like the ending was something fought for? IDK, it made me feel happy and proud. Plus, the whole 'they will kill you if they catch you, but first they must catch you' philosophy was one that made a lot of sense to me as a kid.

I think for me the worst thing in Farthing Wood was what happened to a couple of Fox and Vixen's kids. One of them dies because she wandered off at the wrong moment and the other is outcasted, generally suffers greatly and finally reunites with and forgives his parents before dying. Neither of those were especially violent but gave me pause.
You're so right about the ending of Watership Down being fought for. What happens to Hazel in both the book and the film causes a river of tears every time but I feel kind of happy for him? He's so tired and has done so much but now he gets to rest and be young again forever while knowing he succeeded in securing the future for his children and friends and their children.
