Child death ->

There is a not very graphic scene were a baby is killed using a syringe of poison

There is a not very graphic scene that takes place before the book itself in which an elephant is killed by poachers

Suicide ->

There is a story told by one of the main characters about another character intentionally applying for release (in this book "release" basically means putting someone down in a hospital. Kinda like putting down a dog, except with humans
