Factual error: Pretty much everything that the ferrets do, Kodo and Podo, ferrets would NEVER do. Ferrets don't sound like that. Ferrets can't jump that high and that far (when the one attacked minister Zed).
The Beastmaster (1982)
1 factual error - chronological order
Directed by: Don Coscarelli
Starring: Rip Torn, John Amos, Tanya Roberts, Marc Singer
Continuity mistake: When Dar and the others use a boat to intercept Kiri and her captors, we see them sailing towards the pier, but in the close-up shot they're pulling themselves along a rope which was absent from the earlier shot. (Noted in director's commentary.)
Trivia: The impaled skeletons marking the road towards the city were originally much better, but the better skeletons were accidentally burned in the funeral pyre scene, forcing the filmmakers to use nasty looking rubber ones instead.

Answer: The creatures did not eat Dar because the eagle landed on him, showing him as a friend to the eagle. They apparently worship eagles, as also indicated by the talisman they give him.
