Why is the movie Old Yeller sad?
The lead character, a yellow Dog is not-so-accidentally fatally shot by the lead male adult character, after having become rabid. This is one of the very few Disney animal features (Live action) to have a tragic end. The phrase Old Yeller is some folkish variant of Yellow and does not refer to extra-loud barking! There are other films that end with the death of an animal, or a death of an animal is a major juncture in the plot ( like the original version of Toby Tyler where the monkey, Mr.Tubbs dies) but this is rather unusual. Can"t say I like it.
What is the theme in Old Yeller?
The Father or Uncle ( mature adult rancher) shoots the rabid dog! Thus Old Yeller dies and the story is ended. Animal sacrifice theme but rarely- this was one example, employed by Walt Disney, who did not write the story. It has nothing to do with science fiction, my Gawrsh!

What happens to each of the bulls at the end of the fight in Old Yeller?
The only bullfight I watched.
The dead bull was dragged out of the arena winched up and butchered in a matter of minutes.
I would not recommend bullfighting and would think only a small amount of the human species that attend this kind of event would find it for some reason entertaining.
I was totally disgusted

The 16 year old boy, Travis, shoots Old Yeller. Travis's dad is on a cattle run throughout most of the story.
