Every single animal you see on-screen was rendered with computers. And yet it doesn't detract from the final product in any way at all; they look real.

The fact that it's now possible for a movie to be made - one that features hundreds of animals as its focal point, no less - without the use of real creatures means that Hollywood are sure to begin phasing the practice of using live animals out entirely.
