It's actually very rare that Hollywood makes non-nature movies that use correct animal sounds(and it's often not correct in animal focused ones either). For birds they especially tend to use sounds that are exclusive to North America, even if the setting is in on another continent.
There's the classic of kids asking why they've never heard the "ribbit ribbit" sound in nature: The pacific tree frog only lives on the west coast of North America.
And let's not forget almost every single time you see a bear "roaring", it's almost always mixed in with lion roars and such. In real life a black bear "roar" sounds more like a cow going "moo".
laughing kookaburras as background “monkey” sounds in the Amazon jungle also get me
On any planet with trees, kookaburras are always the alien animal sound.
God, yes! Once I learned about that I can never focus on the movie when they're playing that clip. Sort of like the wilhelm scream, but in a 'big sigh' moment rather than a humorous one.
And loon calls in totally the wrong biomes, even continents!
