Bambi: The meadow! (Without any trees or bushes to stop him, Bambi can run in any direction he wishes. He can run as free through the meadow as a bird can fly in the open heavens) Under Owl's tree, a young rabbit thumps on a hollow log with his broad, flat foot. Drumming is his road to call the animals)

Bambi's mother leaned over and nuzzled Bambi's shoulder a little. "Come on, Bambi," she urged gently. "Get up. Try again.""Come on! Come on!" squealed Thumper and his sisters excitedly. "Get up! Get up! You can do it!" Grandpa Mouseling: The Furforth Medal for bravery, Angelina. Named after Colonel Furforth, finest soldier there ever was. He went missing shortly after the war, though. And no one knows where he is. Bambi looks around at the emptiness of the meadow. He looks at the green sloping fields and the bright heavens above) A few drowsy birds were just beginning to greet the new day as a huge old owl swooped silently towards the hollow tree where he made his home. The world was waking up all around him. A little wood-mouse slipped out of her nest to wash her face in a dewdrop. Three baby sparrows cheeped shrilly as their mother brought them their first meal of the day: A cluster of berries. And with every second, the pale sunbeams grew brighter.

Then he looks up. Someone is hanging upside down from a branch. Bambi turns his head upside down to see her better. It is Mother Opossum and her three babies, hanging by their tails. How can they do that, Bambi wonders)

But as Bambi takes a mighty jump from the same hill, his "Yippee" abruptly ends in an "Oof" and he winds up in his belly) Bambi continues on his road, enjoying the lovely spring day and the woods all around him. He walks into a shallow pool of water that is no longer frozen and takes a drink. As he does so, he sees the reflection of another deer in the water. This deer has no antlers on her head)

Among those friendly visitors was Friend Owl and Mama Bunny and her several children, including her daughters and her son, Thumper. [6] The deer in the forest had banded together to look for food. For hours every day they struggled through the woods in search of the scraps of bark and twigs that were all the forest offered them now. At the same time, he seemed to develop a sense of shyness, as can be seen in his first interactions with Faline. [6]

Bambi was created by Felix Salten as the titular character of his novel, Bambi: A Life in the Woods, which was first released in 1922. Bambi's mother looks at her son and pauses, trying to find the road to help him understand this biggest of all dangers. How can she explain hunters to a tiny fawn? Then she simply names the danger) As he plays with the rabbits, Bambi feels himself get stronger. He runs farther and faster. As they come to a fallen tree trunk, the rabbits jump over it easily. But Bambi doesn't know how to jump high enough to follow them)It is also the first Disney animated film in which a non-evil character dies. This led to a controversy regarding the question if the film with its dramatic portrayal of the death of Bambi's mother is child-friendly. You're not afraid, are you?" asked his mother, and he shook his head again. "Well, then, go ahead!" And she pushed him with her nose. "Go on, say hello," she told him firmly, in a motherly, no-nonsense voice. Bambi cleared his throat. He pawed the ground a little. Then he glowered up at Faline. Bambi's Mother: Everyone respects him. Of all the deer in the forest, not one has lived half so long.

He bent low in a courtly bow to the fawn's mother. "You are to be congratulated.""Thank you," said the prince's mother quietly. She leaned over and gave her baby a loving nudge. "Wake up," she whispered. "Come on, dear. We have company." There is danger coming. He races down the hill to the meadow. All the deer stop eating and playing until they see him burst from the forest. They sense he is coming to warn them of danger. All the animals in the meadow race through the empty fields to the woods, where they will be safe) While the movie may be best known for its tragic scenes, it also features some of the most memorable moments in Disney history.But, trying to follow the little rabbits, the young deer had difficulties with a large log lying across the path.
