50 Movie Death Scenes That Left You TRAUMATISED

If there is one thing Disney loves doing more than reimagining its animated classics, it's killing off the protagonist's parents. It happened in Frozen, Finding Nemo, The Good Dinosaur, and many more. However, the latter wasn't the first time audiences had to watch a young Apatosaurus say goodbye to a parent, and this one wasn't even from Disney.

27 years before Pixar released The Good Dinosaur, Universal Pictures released The Land Before Time, the charming tale of a group of young dinosaurs going on a journey together. But how did it come to be that these young ones had only themselves to rely on?

During an attack on the herbivores, Littlefoot and his family also had to suffer through an earthquake that split the land. These few minutes took their toll on Littlefoot's mother, and by the time they were reunited, she knew that she was about to die.

This would have been bad enough, but she began to explain what her son was to do after she was gone, only for him to not truly understand what was happening, questioning why he would ever have to worry about that. Then came her deafening and heart-wrenching silence.

Spoiler, this isn't the only time a young animal will witness the death of a parent on this list.
