Bad Boys: Ride or Die (2024)

In the scene where two actors encounter each other on a beach in a dream sequence and we see a macaw sitting on a branch, prior to filming trainers placed the bird on the perch. When production was ready to film, the trainer brought the macaw to set. He placed the leg band and monofilament line on the left leg. Off-camera, the trainer held or monitored the line. On action, the macaw stood on high perch and flew A to B about fifteen feet to other trainer’s arm.

In the scene where a team of policemen search the woods for suspects and a couple of the policemen had dogs on leashes, the dogs were prepped to walk and trot on leash and search. The wooded areas were scouted and cleared by the wranglers. The wranglers were in wardrobe handling the dogs and they were on leash at all times. They were given breaks and offered water as needed.

In the scene where the actors walk across a bridge and we see alligators pass underneath them in the water, the alligators were animatronic.
