Errors in Animation documentation tutorial

In the Playing Animations section of the page, Setup part of the documentation there is a script.
The script has variables in lines 9-11 but the warning below it says:
This script uses specifically named parts. If you rename parts of the imported model, be sure to update their variables (lines 12-14) in the script.

Even worse:
The animation listed in the script AnimationId = “rbxassetid://3716468774/zombie_death” is no longer available, so anyone trying this script is going to wonder what they’ve done wrong since the animation doesn’t load into the Animator and there are no errors.
When testing the Animator is empty, and there are no errors displayed in the Output window.
