Cannibal Holocaust was banned in its country of origin (Italy) against a law forbidding cruelty to animals - it was later overturned.
It's probably right that blatant animal violence is less tolerated in today's society - imagine someone making a film like this now, complete with similar scenes?
Having said that, the thought of likes of Industrial Light & Magic crafting CGI sequences to represent, say, a muskrat or alligator being stabbed to death by a human would be very strange... and very disturbing.
