* ''{{WesternAnimation/Brave}}'' takes place in medieval Scotland, and the plot involves a RebelliousPrincess named Merida accidentally turning her mother Queen Elinor into a bear using an enchanted spell cake she received from a witch due to Merida and her mother not seeing each other eye-to-eye. However, in real life, bears were already extinct in Scotland (and Great Britain as a whole) by the time the events of the movie take place. Also worth noting that only brown bears lived there, [[MisplacedWildlife yet all the bears seen in the film appear to be black bears]]. [[note]] Which could potentially take this trope to a whole new level seeing as Asiatic black bears did once range into Europe but have been extinct there since prehistoric times; that said though, the bears in the movie more closely resemble American black bears. [[note]]. [[spoiler:Justified, since ''none'' of the bears in the movie are "actual" bears.]]

* ''Fanfic/MaroonedInMadagascar'': Crowned eagles are the go-to species to play the BrutalBirdOfPrey. The Malagasy crowned eagle did exist and did prey on lemurs, but they died out during the 16th century (alongside giant lemurs and elephant birds), leaving only its mainland cousin in Africa.
