- Sloan and Bree Blackburn. They start out seeming like a kindly couple of veterinarians, but halfway through the movie, Eliza finds out that they're actually the Evil Poachers who had previously kidnapped Tally the cheetah cub and then started plotting to kill a herd of elephants by scaring them into stampeding toward an electric fence.Sloan: Hello, Eliza. (Eliza spins around. Sloan is standing behind her in the doorway, smiling wickedly. Tally growls at him.)
Eliza: Sloan? This cheetah cub, where—where'd you get him?
Sloan: I picked him up on the savannah.
Eliza: You...bought him?
Sloan: No, I picked him up—right off the ground.
(Bree walks in with a nasty sneer)
Bree: I told Sloan he shouldn't cut that rope ladder!
Eliza: (gasps) It was YOU!
Sloan: Yes. (pulls his bowie knife out of his boot.) Thank you so much for returning my knife to me.
Bree: Oh, kitten, you didn't drink your milk! (she grabs Tally from Eliza and mercilessly dangles him by the scruff) How are you ever gonna grow big enough to make me a new coat?
Sloan: I'm afraid you're gonna have to miss the solar eclipse. You can catch it on the Poaching Channel!
Eliza: YOU BUILT THE FENCE!
Sloan: Of course. Now here's a question for your famous father: How many volts of electricity does it take to kill a thousand elephants? Hmm?- Perhaps the most terrifying part in the entire movie would be when Debbie shows up looking for Eliza. When she reveals her relation to her sister, Sloan starts strangling Debbie and holding her over the edge of a cliff while Bree restrains Eliza. Sloan offers Eliza a Sadistic Choice: Either she tells him how she knew of his plan (which she doesn't want to do, because Tally told her and revealing this will cause her to lose her powers) or watch as her sister is murdered right in front of her. Eliza is ultimately left with no choice but to reveal her secret.
- While Sloan's giving his Sadistic Choice, Bree just tells him to kill Debbie anyway.
- If that wasn't enough, Sloan grabs Eliza by the arm via on his the chopper's ladder for interfering with his plan, then flings the poor girl into a raging river.Sloan: You will regret this!
Eliza: I DON'T CARE! WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS AWFUL!
Sloan: AND WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS STUPID! Shame you won't be here to help me carry out the ivory! (tosses the shrieking Eliza into the rapids below)
