* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: [[spoiler:Jenner exploits the Moving Day and engineers Nicodemus' death by sabotaging the equipment at a crucial moment when their leader's in the line of fire. It works and all the grief-stricken Rats believe it was a tragic accident. Jenner's in the clear... until he loses all self-control and Justin ends up fighting him. In the middle of their duel, Justin suddenly and correctly deduces Jenner's role in the "accident" (and Jenner, having nothing left to lose, takes credit and gloats).]]

* PredationIsNatural: Averted and played straight. Averted in Dragon, a cat who killed Brisby's husband, is an animalistic monster who only speaks in roars and seeks nothing but to eat the helpless protagonists. Played straight in the Great Owl, who explicitly eats mice but is cordial enough (And more importantly, already fed enough) to speak to Brisby without trying anything.

--->'''Don Bluth:''' With regard to the amulet, it is a metaphor for believing in one's self. Remember the quote, "Courage of the heart is very rare, the stone has a power when it's there." It helps symbolize her courage and the power of the stone to help rescue her children...a miracle, if you will. God stuff. Granted, it isn't in the original novel, but we felt that it was much more powerful. Nicodemus says it was Jonathan's, but really just to get her to accept it. We didn't really think it was necessary to explain it further. Seems like we would eat up too much screen time to tell the history of the amulet, when the story was about an innocent widow mouse, who, thru her journey would find out that she has the courage to rescue her own family. Regarding magic, we really believe that animation calls for some magic, to give it a special "fantastic" quality. The stone or amulet is just a method of letting the audience know that Mrs. Brisby has found "Courage of the Heart". Magic? Maybe. Spiritual? Yes.

Not very necessary, I just think it's a funny fit here.

** In actuality, almost everything that appears in the movie from the {{Interspecies Friendship}}s to the rather smart intelligence of animals to the cooperation of two different species has actually been observed and recorded both in captivity and in the wild, though the chances of it being seen and recorded is incredibly rare. In fact, the only thing that is blatantly untrue in this movie is the anthropomorphic shape of the animals.
