Zootopia 3 Chapter 8

Later that day, Mayor Winddancer holds an audition to see who should be his assistant mayor.

"Attention, Zootopians!" He said as he read from notes written on his hooves. "I am in need of an assistant mayor, so I need one of you to support the city, assist with policy development, oversee specific departments, and most importantly, represent me at public events! Any mammal who has an IQ level of 175 is more than eligible!" Soon, pigs, elephants, wolves, crocodiles (but not Terrence), rats, and even an Amazon river dolphin in a mobile tank pushed by a Javan rhino lined up to see if they had what it took to be assistant mayor. While he was flying, Floyd noticed the line of animals. He descended to the ground to see what the commotion was about.

"What's the line for?" He asked.

"Winddancer is holding an audition for who will be his assistant mayor!" Said a rat.

"An assistant mayor?" The raven asked.

"He or she helps out the mayor with various jobs." Answered a dingo. "Unlike that no-good Smell-wether! She wanted to dart every predator in Zootopia so she could start a race war!"

"A mayor's like a leader, right?" Floyd asked.

"Basically." Said the Javan rhino.

"Reminds me of when I still worked with Nolan." Floyd thought to himself. "I'll see if I can apply for the job. Hope he's nicer than Nolan." He flew into City Hall to meet Winddancer face-to-face, who was talking to a pangolin.

"I may be skittish," He said. "But I was the smartest in my high school class! Look at these report cards!" He pulled out a report card to show Winddancer straight As.

"Really?" Asked Brian. "Then what is 13 times 379?"

"4,927." Floyd answered. Immediately, Winddancer punched the numbers in the calculator app on his phone, and was astonished to find out that Floyd was right!

"Do you have an IQ of 175?" Asked the horse.

"I don't know." Floyd replied. "Maybe?"

"Let's see about that. Canary Island is located below which Zootopia location?"

"Outback Island."

"Correct! And are tomatoes a fruit or a vegetable?"

"Fruit, I believe."

"Correct! Are platypuses birds or mammals?"

"What's a platypus?" The pangolin pulled up a picture of a platypus on his phone.

"Let's see." Said Floyd. "It doesn't seem to have wings or feathers, so it must be a mammal. Like the echindas on Canary Island."

"Correct!" Shouted Winddancer. "True or false: Zootopia has always been a mammal-exclusive city."

"There seem to be reptiles running around, so I guess I'll say no."

"Correct again! In fact, Zootopia started out as a mammal AND reptile city, but when Agnes Desnake, who also invented the Weather Wall, was framed for poisoning the Lynxley family maid, they were practically banished! And Reptile Ravine, where they all lived, was buried in snow!"

"Speaking of which," Said the pangolin. "I think I'll go to Reptile Ravine. I bet they'll have a job for me." The pangolin grabbed his report cards and scurried out of City Hall.

"Last question, though I doubt you'll get this right." Said Brian. "Being new here and all. Who was responsible for turning Zootopia's predators savage last year: Leodore Lionheart or Dawn Bellewether?"

Upon hearing this, Floyd remembered that a dingo told him about someone named Smell-wether. Perhaps Smellwether was Bellewether's derogatory nickname!

"Uh, Bellewether?" Floyd guessed.

"Correct!" Shouted Winddancer. "Congradulations! You have the honor of being my assistant mayor! By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Floyd." Said the raven.

"Well, Floyd." Said Winddancer. "You shall sign paperwork soon. And if you want to know how I knew all that trivia, I was a teacher for one of my movies: School of Flock. Want an autograph?"

"What's an autograph?" Asked Floyd.

---------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Nolan woke up in a prison cell. He was in Cliffside Asylum, located in Zootopia's Rainforest District.

"Where am I?" He asked himself.

"You're in Cliffside Asylum, bro." Said a hyena in another cell. "The most secure prison in the world. There's no escaping the place!" Nolan tried flying out of the prison, but he couldn't. His wings were clipped.

"Looks like you're stuck here." Said Bellewether, who was in a cell right across from Nolan. "By the way, are you predator or prey?"

"I'm a mighty bird of prey." Said Nolan. "That means I eat meat, like you."

"Another predator?" Asked Bellewether. "Oh, mutton chops."

----------------------------------------------------

Weeks have passed, and the birds have been integrated into Zootopian society: The hawks (including Cory), eagles, and albatrosses are part of the Zootopia Postal Service, the blue jays, cardinals, and swallows help out at the DMV (especially when the sloths are so slow), the geese, puffins, and boobies dive for lost items that hippos and pinnipeds can't physically pick up, and the ravens curate the History Museum and libraries. Some birds don't like having clothes, so the ones that decided to stay naked stay at the Mystic Spring Oasis with Yax. To make sure the birds didn't crash into buildings, since they can't see glass, hundreds upon thousands of stickers were placed on windows all over the city. As for Nick and Judy, they decided to take a week-long vacation in Bunny Burrow after the whole escapade. They were having a date together at a diner, with Gideon Grey delivering pies for desert.

"You're telling me that when you were a kid," Nick said. "A fox named Gideon Grey not only bullied you, but also scratched your face?"

"Yes." Judy answer. "But luckily, I swept it under the rug. Never let them see through to you."

"That's what I taught you, Carrots." Nick joked. Suddenly, they heard a familiar voice.

"Oh, no. Not you two." It was Paul, a mole who worked at the ZPD. "Whenever you're around, I end up in all sorts of messes, such as being blasted with soda or getting stuck in a doughnut."

"Did you not know?" Judy replied. "I'm from Bunny Burrow. My family owns a successful farm, and that cupcake you're eating? That was made by my former rival Gideon Grey, who also works with my parents!"

"Are you on vacation too, Paul?" Asked Nick.

"For your information," Paul explained. "I moved out of Zootopia to avoid the hectic city life. Now I toil soil for the Jones, and I get paid a lot. Much better than operating computers!" Suddenly, Judy's phone gave an alert sound. It was a text from her dad, Stu.

"Let me see." Judy said as she picked up the phone. "'Hi there, Jude the dude! Remember when I used to call you that? Anyway, I'm here to tell you that two of your friends, Gary and Cory, are here to visit at the Hopps residence. Do you want to pay them a visit?' I'll say yes." Judy typed 'yes' into her phone, and Stu replied 'Great! We'll see you soon!'

"Should we visit Gary and Cory, Carrots?" Nick asked Judy.

"Yes, we should." Judy responded. "But first, we need to finish dinner. Your cicada nuggets are getting cold!"

THE END

Author's Notes: In Zootopia 1, Mayor Lionheart gave Assistant Mayor Bellewether the derogatory nickname of 'Smell-wether'.

School of Flock (like a flock of sheep) is a riff on School of Rock.

When Judy was a kitten, she'd be tormented by a red fox named Gideon Grey, who taunted her for dreaming of being a police officer. Luckily, as an adult, Gideon matured and even teamed up with Judy's parents to deliver pies!

In real life, some houses have stickers that will help birds avoid windows, since they can't see glass.

Well, that concludes Zootopia 3! As for what's next for me, I'll review Transformers One in August, Forgotten Island in September, I Am Frankelda in October, and Hexed in November. When Hexed comes out, be on the look for a new Lilo and Stitch short that will accompany the movie, Lilo and Scratch. Just one question remains regarding the short- Will it have connections to Lilo and Stitch: The Series?

Zootopia 3 Chapter 7

Seven hours later, the two boats of animals, along with the flock of birds, have arrived in Zootopia. The birds were all amazed by the city that lay upon them.

"You all live in this forest with metal trees without eating one another?" Asked a hornbill.

"That is correct." Said Judy. "It's been like that for at least a millennium, though Zootopia wasn't founded until 1916."

"What do the carnivores eat more eat?" Asked a goose.

"They eat fish, insects, crustaceans, and mollusks." Said Renato. "Speaking of which, a sea bass pie would sound delicious right now! If anyone needs me, I'll be in Tundra Town at the Blubber Chef restaurant." He then went off to Tundra Town to have sea bass pie for dinner.

"What about us?" Asked a gecko. "We need homes."

"Follow me, former slaves." Said Chief Bogo. "We'll get paperwork sorted out and you'll have homes in no time. As for the birds, they can pick whatever habitat they desire. Fangmire, pull out a map! Higgins, send the unconscious owl to Cliffside Asylum." Fangmire gets a map out of his pocket and unfolds it, and the birds all look at it.

"Marsh Market sounds nice." Said an albatross.

"We'll go to Glacier Falls." Said a puffin.

"I choose Goatshorn!" Said a dark-eyed junco." The birds soon all flew (or in the case of the boobies and the quails, walk) to their new homes in Zootopia: The puffins head off to Glacier Falls, the quails off to Chestnut Hills, the geese, boobies, and spoonbills off to Muddy Swamp, the albatrosses off to Marsh Market, the macaws, hornbills, and Bali mynas off to The Canopy, fruit doves and ibises off to Vine Country, birds of paradise and aracaris off to Ficus Grove, cardinals, blue jays, and swallows off to Acorn Heights, ravens off to Gnu York, dark-eyed juncos off to Goatshorn, and cranes off to Sahara Square's Oasis. However, the harpy eagles, golden eagles, hawks (except for Cory), owls, secretary birds, hamerkops, and kookaburras are skeptical on eating fish, since they were used to eating mammals and reptiles.

"What are you still doing here?" Asked Nick. "That crazy owl doesn't control your life anymore! You're free as, well, birds!"

"We know that." Said a harpy eagle. "But what if we don't like fish? I tried a frog once, and it was disgusting!"

"Luckily, I know the reptile for the job!" Said Nibbles. "Follow me to Marsh Market!"

--------------------------------------------------------------

Nick, Judy, and the predatory birds followed Nibbles to Marsh Market, where they see a basilisk lizard swimming in the water. When he got out, Nibbles noticed he was wearing Sailor Meown swimming trunks.

"What?" Asked the lizard. "You never seen a lizard wearing a Magical Cat bathing suit before?" A kookaburra started licking his beak.

"Whoooo the heck are you?" Asked a great horned owl.

"The name's Jesus." Said the lizard as he dried himself off and put on cowboy garb. "I used to be secluded to a secret hideout, but thanks to Nick and Judy, we reptiles are no longer outcasts! What can I do for you today?"

"You're not freaking out that you're surround by birds?" Asked Judy.

"It's not what you look like on the outside." Said Jesus (pronounced hey Zeus). "It's your action that matters the most. What do these birds want?"

"Cory says that fish taste good," Said a kookaburra. "But we beg to differ."

"Ooh!" Jesus exclaimed. "Looks like you've never tried fish from my new friend Buford. Luckily, he's not too far!" He ran across the water to find Buford. A few minutes later, an elephant seal jumped out of the water and plopped on the dock with Jesus following in pursuit.

"Hello, feathered friends!" Said the seal. "My name is Buford, and is that Nick and Judy? I want to thank you so much for thwarting Lynxley's plans to destroy Marsh Market. Where would we live if our home got covered in snow? Aside for the walruses, that is."

"Well, the hippos always have Sahara Square." Joked Nick, only to get punched by Judy.

"The birds here need to try fish." Jesus explained.

"Well, you came to the right seal!" Said Buford. "Does anyone have a grill and some fish?" A river otter came by pushing a grill, while a marine iguana came by carrying a large box of fish.

"While the seal is cooking," Said Nick. "I'll see if I can find a table." Nick went off to find a table while Buford cooked the fish.

"And they're done!" Claimed the elephant seal. "Get yourself plates and grab a fish while they're hot!" Another river otter came by with plates while Nick came back with a foldout table.

"And where did you get that table?" Judy asked while Nick unfolded the table.

"The Shell Hut loaned it to me in exchange for three dozen Pawpsicles." Nick answered back.

"And where will you get these Pawpsicles?" Asked Judy.

"I'll buy them instead of taking advantage of Zootopia's ecosystems." Answered the fox. While the mammals were talking, the birds ate Buford's fish one by one, and to their surprises, they love it.

"This is much better than sloths!" Said a harpy eagle.

"You're right, Cory." Said a hawk. "Fish are just as tasty as mammals and reptiles!"

"I wish my beak was bigger." Said a secretary bird.

"Well, my work here is done." Said Buford as he jumped into the water.

"It's great and all," Said a hamerkop. "But with all the animals living here, aren't you afraid of the city running out of fish?"

'Don't worry your feathers about it!" Said Nick. "The fish here reproduce like rabbits." Judy was offended by what Nick said. The birds soon finished their meal, and they were ready to find a spot in Zootopia to live in.

"Can you get the map out, again?" Asked a golden eagle. Judy got out her phone to showcase the map of Zootopia. After a few minutes, all the birds (except for Cory started flying to different locations: The harpy eagles move to Vine Country, the owls to the Nocturnal District (located in the Rainforest District), the hawks to Downtown Zootopia, the golden eagles to Rocky Peak, the secretary birds to the Palm District, and the kookaburras to Reptile Ravine.

"Are you still afraid of birds?" Cory asked Judy.

"Not anymore." She replied.

"Well, I decided where I will live." Said the hawk. "I will live on the roof of your apartment. Great Armadillo Claws?"

"Grand Pangolin Arms." Judy corrected.

"Well, I'll live on the rooftops of the Grand Pangolin Arms." Cory proclaimed.

"I don't mean to ruin the mood," Nick interrupted. "But birds still need to sign paperwork and wear clothes."

"And you need to make Pawpsicles for that mammal you borrowed a foldout table from." Judy quipped back.

----------------------------------------------------

The next day, the dolphin bartender at The Shell Shack was serving customers, regardless of species.

"It seems that fox forgot to give me those Pawpsicles." He said. "Guess I should know better than to trust a fox."

"Don't say that." Said Emmett Otterton. "He and Judy helped me last year! My wife is grateful to her to this very day." Suddenly, an albatross arrived carrying a large Floatzen cooler.

"Delivery for Mr. Bottlenose." Said the albatross as he dropped the cooler on the counter and flew off. The dolphin opened the cooler and was surprised: There were three dozen Pawpsicles inside.

"Ooh, Pawpsicles!" Said Emmet. "When Nick was a con artist, I'd buy a Pawpsicle from Nick whenever I had the chance. Can I have one?"

"Five sand dollars." Replied Mr. Bottlenose.

Author's Notes: All the locations mentioned on the map (except for the Nocturnal District) are taken from a map of the city at the Disneyworld attraction Zootopia: Better Together.

Renato wishing for a sea bass pie is another reference to Animal Crossing: New Horizons, in which it's one of hundreds of dishes you can cook in the game.

In Zootopia 2, along with Gary De'Snake, Nick and Judy also meet a basilisk lizard named Jesus. Like I said in Chapter 3 of the story, Jesus has non-reptiles eat worms the first time they meet.

Some of the background animals in Zootopia 1 wear shirts with a Sailor Moon cat on it. This hippo calf who says one of my favorite line in the whole movie is wearing this shirt.

In Zootopia 2, one of the bars at Marsh Market is called The Shell Hut, probably run by a dolphin.

Judy's apartment is called the Grand Pangolin Arms, run by an armadillo who delouses the rooms once a month for free.

In Zootopia 1, Nick and his pint-size partner Finnick would take advantage of Zootopia's ecosystems to melt giant ice pops into juice and refreeze them as Pawpsicles. Emmet Otterton, who's a florist for Mr. Big the Arctic shrew and member of the naturalist club, bought a Pawpsicle right before he went missing.

In the world of Zootopia, since humans don't exist, human and human-like characters are replaced with animal counterparts. Floatzen, the Zootopia version of Frozen, depicts Anna and Elsa as river otters and Kristoff as a moose.

Zoootpia 3 Chapter 6

Back at the ZPD, Clawhauser showed Captain Fern Hogbottom his Gazelle app: He took a picture of the sow, and one of the tigers had Hogbottom's head.

"Wow." Said Gazelle on the app with an automated tone. "You are one hot dancer Fern Hogbottom."

"Isn't it cool?" The cheetah asked.

"Not really." Said Hogbottom. "I prefer Fur Fighters." Suddenly, the screen changed to an alarm. Clawhauser ran towards Chief Bogo's office, unaware he was balancing the checkbook.

"Chief Bogo!" Clawhauser shouted, causing Chief Bogo to scribble on the book.

"Clawhauser, look what you made me do!" Said the cape buffalo. "Get out of here if you want to keep your job."

"But it's Nick and Judy!" Said Clawhauser! "They're in danger!"

"How do you know that?"

"One of them must've pressed the emergency beacon! Didn't you check your phone?"

"Of course, not. It's charging on the shelf."

"Will you just look at my phone?!" Clawhauser ran towards Bogo to show him the alarm on his phone.

"By God, you're right!" Bogo exclaimed. "Hopps and Wilde are in trouble! For all we know, they're probably being eaten alive! Clawhauser, tell everyone to head to the bullpen!"

"You got it, Chief!" Said Clawhauser.

--------------------------------------------------

In the bullpen, Chief Bogo brought in 20 of his best workers, including Terrence Jawful.

"Ladies and gentle-mammals!" Chief Bogo began. "I am here to tell you awful news: Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde are in trouble at Canary Island! We need to get there fast, and I hoof-picked the best officers to join me- Higgins, Fangmire, Hogbottom, Truffler, the Zebros, and Jawful. You are all coming with me. Officer McHorn, you'll take my place while I'm gone."

"I will make you proud, Bogo!" Said the rhinoceros. The police animals immediately went off to Canary Island to rescue Nick and Judy.

------------------------------------------------

Back at Bird Village, Judy and Nick have their arms tied behind their backs as they slowly walk towards a massive pot that was once used by an elephant. Renato is a slave forced to catch fish too far for the puffins and albatrosses to reach, and Cory, who had his legs tied so he wouldn't escape, is sentenced to die by being crushed by rocks from golden eagles. Floyd believes that Nolan has gotten too far, so he thinks of a plan to free Nick and Judy so they can escape and maybe free some slave animals.

'Hey, Nolan!" Said the raven, and the golden eagles dropped their rocks. "There's a chipmunk trying to steal from the bird feeder!" Nolan flies up to the bird feeder to find the 'chipmunk', and while he's distracted, Floyd flew over to Nick and Judy to untie their arms.

"Why are you trying to free us?" Asked Judy. "I thought birds were blood-thirsty savages." Floyd was disgusted by that statement.

"Does that look like a blood-thirsty savage to you?" Floyd asked as he pointed to a swallow. "Just like how predatory mammals are actually very nice once you get to know them."

"He's got a point there, Carrots." Said Nick.

"Hmm." Said Judy. "Maybe birds aren't so bad after all." Nolan flew to Nick and Judy to plop them in the pot.

"Bye-bye, bunny." Said Nolan, and right before he could bite off Judy's head, he got hit with a tranquilizer dart. It was Chief Bogo.

"Animals don't go savage where we come from." Said the buffalo.

"What's that?" Asked a scarlet macaw.

"Maybe it's another reindeer." Said a kiwi.

"He's a cape buffalo." Said Higgins. "And DO NOT get on his bad side."

"Chief Bogo!" Said Judy. "Don't hurt the other birds! See this raven?" She pointed to Floyd. "He untied Nick and I so we could escape."

"It's true." Said Floyd. "Between you and me, Nolan is a bit nuts. If you can remove his ability to fly, please do it!" Fangmire walked over to Nolan's unconscious body and brought him to the boat to clip his wings.

"Are we gonna place all the birds under arrest, Chief Bogo?" Asked Truffler. "I don't think there will be enough room in prison for all of them, especially since the 200 dangerous criminals Wilde let loose got rearrested?"

"I was trying to leave the building!" Shouted Nick. "How many times do I have to tell you?!" A dark-eyed junco flew onto Jawful's nose.

"I don't think we should, Bogo." Said the crocodile. "Back in Crocodile Country, we would have smaller birds clean our teeth. Also, before modern medicine was invented, some birds would help the likes of buffalo, elephants, hippos, and rhinos by eating parasitic bugs."

"That sound cool!" Said a swallow.

"And what about the slave animals?" Asked Nibbles. "They need homes, too."

"Alright, alright." Said Bogo. "Perhaps birds aren't as bloodthirsty as I thought." A bird of paradise landed on his left horn. "You're lucky that Zootopia has enough room for 130 million individual animals." Everyone cheered as almost everyone started packing onto the boats. However, the canaries, cassowaries, echidnas, and kiwis just stood there.

"Aren't you gonna join us?" Asked Judy as she untied Cory.

"No, we like it on Canary Island." Said a kiwi.

"Besides," Said a canary. "If we left Canary Island, what would it called?"

"And I was getting sick of eating mice and lizards, to be honest."

"Suit yourself." Said Nibbles as she, Nick, Judy, Cory, the ZPD staff, and the slave mammals went on the boat. The slave reptiles, boobies, and quails would return to Zootopia using Renato's boat. The remaining birds decided to follow the boats by flying.

Author's Notes: In Zootopia 1, Clawhauser and Chief Bogo played around with an app where you can take your head and plaster it on the head of one of her tiger dancers.

Along with Gazelle, Judy's other favorite musicians include Hyena Gomez, Fur Fighters, Fleetwood Yak, and Mick Jaguar.

With the key exception of Terrence Jawful, all the cops in this story also appeared in the Zootopia movies.

Hogbottom

Higgins

Fangmire

Truffler

McHorn

Zebros

Snarlov

Floyd's distraction is based on how in real life, squirrels and chipmunks may ransack bird feeders.

In Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, you can get extra lives by correctly answering trivia questions about the game. One of the questions is where DKC 2 takes place, which one of the options being Crocodile Country.

The correct answer is Crocodile Isle, by the way.

It's not stated in the story, but the animal slaves on Canary Island include Guinea pigs, squirrels, kinkajous, caribou, Egyptian tortoises, chipmunks, iguanas, mice, and emerald tree boas. 

Zootopia 3 Chapter 5

It was now nighttime, and Judy was fast asleep. She was dreaming that she was a kitten going on vacation in Mataraja Falls with her family. Her tour guide was a kangaroo, and he was guiding the Hopps family to the top of a cliff.

"This place is called Avian Peak." Said the kangaroo. "This clifftop gets it's name because there have been lots of avian sightings. Can anyone tell me what avian means?" Judy raised her paw.

"I know, I know!" She said. "Avian is another word for bird. A bird is classified by having feathers, a beak, warm-blooded, and lays eggs."

"Very good!" Said the kangaroo. "Just make sure that you stand still. Hawks have keen vision." They continued walking, and they saw a large nest.

"Look at that." Whispered the kangaroo. "It's a bird's nest." He hopped over to the nest and found feathers. He picked one up and smelled it. "Most likely a red-tailed hawk, but where is the hawk?" Suddenly, Judy got captured by the hawk!

"Put me down this instant!" She shouted. "When I grow up, I'm gonna be a police officer in Zootopia, and that means I'll put you behind bars!" The hawk turned his head around, and he gave a maniacal laugh.

"You think we can change our diets that quickly?" Asked the hawk, who looked a lot like Cory. "You're stupider than you look! You and your family will make a great meal for our clan!"

----------------------------------------

Judy shot up awake screaming. She was on the boat with Nick, Nibbles, and Cory. Her screech was loud enough to wake up the other animals.

"Carrots, what happened?" He asked, walking over to comfort Judy.

"I had a nightmare last night." Judy replied. "I had a dream I was a kitten, and my family and I were at Matarajah Falls. We were on a cliff, and I got taken by a hawk who wanted to eat me! And what's worse, it was Cory who wanted to eat me!"

"Geez, talk about a vivid dream." Said Nick. "I guess those sea grapes Nibbles dived for last night didn't agree with you. Good thing I stopped by Ungu-Latte's before we left. I wouldn't touch seafood even if we were at a seafood restaurant! Instead, I had a sandwich that I bought fare and square along with a soda."

"I had a weird dream, too." Said Nibbles. "Remember that strange animal I described last night, a human? Well, I dreamed I swapped brains with one!"

"Are you still afraid of me, Judy?" Asked Cory. "I swear to God that I would never eat a talking animal. How many times do I have to tell you?"

"I know that." Replied Judy. "But my instincts still tell me that all birds are blood-thirsty predators. No offense."

"None taken." Answered Cory.

"Alright, you sea dogs!" Said Renato. "It's 7:00 in the morning, and we'll be arriving at Canary Island any second now." An island comes into view, and it's a forest with birdhouses on every tree.

"This is it." Said Cory. "Canary Island. Animals don't wear clothes here, so you'll have to take your clothes off."

"Don't worry, land-lubbers!" Said Renato as the Nick, Judy, Nibbles, and Cory took off their clothes. "I'll watch over your clothes and electronic items while you're gone." Nick walked over to the seal to check his pocket for something.

"There you are!" Said Nick, grabbing his homing beacon and stuffing it in his tail. The quartet of animals walked off the boat and onto Canary Island, where they were stopped by a group of echidnas walking on all fours.

"Halt!" Said an echidna. "Who goes there?"

"It's me, Cory." Said the hawk. "Remember? The hawk that refuses to eat animals that talk."

"Cory?" Asked another echidna. "Welcome back, and it seems you brought food like you promised."

"Yeah." Cory lied. "Food." He then whispered to his mammalian friends. "Don't worry. This is all an act so we can get into the village. I haven't found any reptiles, but I found mammals!"

"I thought mammals give you indigestion." Said another echidna.

"News flash, prickle-beak." Said Nick. "Echidnas are mammals, too!"

"No, we're birds!" Said the first echidna. "See our beaks?"

"Nick actually has a point." Said Judy. "Despite having beaks and laying eggs, echidnas are mammals. Not reptiles. Besides, if you really were birds, where are you wings and feathers?"

"We have feathers!" Said the second echidna. "They're just sharp."

"Those aren't feathers, my friend." Said Nibbles. "Those are quills, and porcupines and hedgehogs have them too!"

"And who ever heard of a bird sweating milk?" Asked Judy. One echidna used her long tongue to lick herself, and the sweat felt tasty. "Say, this tastes great. Almost as good as ants!"

"Maybe Nolan was wrong." Said another echidna. "Perhaps we aren't birds."

"Is Nolan this scary owl I keep hearing about?" Asked Nibbles. "The one works turns the non-bird animals into slaves?"

"Yes, that's him." Said Cory. "Anyway, can we go in?"

"You sure can!" Said an echidna, and the monotremes got out of the way to let Cory and his friends in. When the four made it to the center of Bird Village, everyone was surprised to see Cory back.

"Look." Said a secretary bird. "Cory's back! And he brought back food!"

"Food?" Asked Judy. "No, we're here to rescue the slave animals!" Nolan overheard the rabbit and flew down to inspect the ruckus on the forest floor, with Floyd following behind him.

"Cory!" The owl shouted. "You're back, but where are your reptiles? You were assigned to get one to eat."

"But we don't have to!" Pleaded Cory. "About a day's flight away from Bird Village is Zootopia, where predator and prey live together in harmony without eating each other."

"And best of all," Said Judy. "Zootopia is a place where anyone can be anything!" The Canary Island residents, bird and non-bird alike, started murmuring to each other.

"A place where anyone can be anything?" Asked a guinea pig.

"Does that mean I don't have to eat mice or squirrels?" Asked a hamerkop.

"I don't have to operate the pullys?" Asked an emerald tree boa. All this chatter made Nolan's blood boil.

"ENOUGH!!!!" He screeched. "Cory, you promised that you'd bring a reptile back and eat it alive, yet you failed. Because of that, you shall die. As for the offerings, the fox will be forced to plant flowers to attract bugs, the beaver will search the pond for fish and frogs, and the rabbit will be dinner." Tears started forming in Judy's eyes.

"You can't do this!" Said Nick as he pulled out the beacon from his tail. "This isn't fair!"

"Who said life was fair?" Asked Nolan. "The fox will be cooked, too." Luckily, before he was grabbed by a great horned owl, Nick pressed the button on the beacon that will summon the ZPD to Canary Island.

Author's Notes: Mataraja Falls is named after Maharajah Jungle Trek at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Here you'll see flying foxes, tigers, a Komodo dragon, blue crowned pigeons, and even though I didn't see any, water buffalo.

Sea grapes are a type of seaweed native to the Indo-Pacific. It is eaten by people across the region, such as Indonesia, Japan, and the Philippines. You might remember diving for these plants in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Another scrapped idea for Zootopia 1 was a café called Ungu-Latte's, a play on the word ungalte, another word for hoofed mammal.

Nibbles's dream is an obvious nod to Pixar's 30th feature film, Hoppers. I know it's a little strange to have a Pixar film referenced in a WDAS-based story, but there's already a Ratatouille reference in Zootopia 2. It's also a coincidence that the mice in Zootopia look similar to Remy!

Zootopia 3 Chapter 4

Back in Zootopia, ex-mayor of the city Leodore Lionheart is freed from prison for being the only one who didn't escape last year, as well as time off for good behavior. Upon leaving the prison, he meets with Mayor Brian Winddancer.

"Brian Winndancer?" Asked Lionheart. "I recognize you in Big Trouble in Little Rodentia! What are you doing here?"

"Didn't you hear?" Asked the horse. "I'm the mayor of Zootopia now, but I need help: How do I be a good mayor? I've been a mayor for about a year now, and I was mostly used as a puppet by the Lynxleys."

"Used as a puppet?" Asked Lionheart. "Boy, you do need help. First off, think for yourself. Even if you're a sloth, koala, panda bear, or guinea pig, you have to have independent thoughts! Second of all, you need to be honest. As the old saying goes, honesty is the best policy!"

"Says the same cat who's been locking up savage mammals in Cliffside Asylum." Replied Winddancer.

"It was to protect the city!" Said Lionheart. "Besides, as I put it in an interview, it was a classic 'doing the wrong thing for the right reason' kind of a deal. What I'm getting at is that you have to be honest, but not too honest. Third of all, you need to be noble."

"I can act like I'm noble." Said Winddancer. "Does that count?"

"No it doesn't." Said Lionheart. "However, I can get you books on being a great mayor. Which reminds me, the final tip I have for you is to treat your assistant mayor well, or else she'll pull off an elaborate attempt to destroy society as we know it! As Ted Badgers put it, treat others like how you'd like to be treated."

"Thanks for the advice, Lionheart." Said Winddancer. "Want my autograph? A selfie with me? My best movie on Zoo-Ray?"

"None of that, thank you very much." Replied Lionheart. "However, I do have a question for you: Do you have an assistant mayor?"

"Actually, no." Answered Winndancer. "I guess I don't. Tomorrow, I'll hold auditions on who should be my assistant mayor! And who knows? Maybe it's a mare. Get it? A mare, as in a female horse?" He gave out a winnie-laugh.

-----------------------------------------------

Back at the ZPD, Benjamin Clawhauser was Zoogling birds, and he found out they have beaks, are warm-blooded, have feathers, and lay eggs.

"Hmm." The cheetah said to himself. "Birds are warm-blooded like mammals, yet they lay eggs like reptiles. That's strange."

"What's so strange about that?" Asked Terrence Jawful. "Platypuses and echidnas lay eggs and they are mammals. Pit vipers and Jackson's chameleons give birth and they are reptiles. Believe me, I saw it first-claw! Besides, Gazelle once said that birds don't just fly, they fall down and get up."

"What are you saying?" Asked Clawhauser.

"You need to visit the library to learn more about birds." Said Jawful. "The museum may be tempting, but they only have taxidermy mammals and reptiles on display. No birds."

"But who will take my place at the ZPD?" Asked Clawhauser.

"Snarlov will take your place while you're gone." Answered Jawful, grabbing a polar bear cop with his jaws. "You can handle the ZPD counter. Can't you, Snarlov?"

"Okay, but won't Chief Bogo get mad?" Asked the bear.

"Don't worry your snowy white head about it!" Replied Clawhauser. "I'll just tell Chief Bogo through text." Clawhauser texted Chief Bogo on his phone to tell him about his trip to the library. In his office, Bogo got a text from Clawhauser that said 'Be back in 30 minutes. Jawful and I are going to the library to learn more about birds, and Snarlov is taking my place while I'm gone!'

"Why did I even hire him in the first place?" Bogo asked himself. "He can't even run 5 miles per hour!"

-----------------------------

Benjamin and Terrence went to the local library to learn more about birds. The crocodile was looking at the books in the 590s section.

"Let's see." Jawful read out loud. "594 is mollusks, 595 is arthropods, 597 is fish, amphibians, and reptiles, here we are! 598- birds!" He pulled out a book that said 'Birds: Feathered Friends or Feathered Foes?'. The two predators went to a table and started reading.

"'The only known location on Earth where birds live is Canary Island.'" Clawhauser read. "'We mammals may have not spent a whole day there, but what we did discover is anything but friendly. With a few exceptions, many of the bird species here are bloodthirsty savages who will eat any animal smaller than them, even if they are sentient.' Yikes! That sounds worse than mammals going savage!" The capybara librarian shushed at Clawhauser to be quieter.

"Sorry." The cheetah apologized as he read quieter. "'The animals they catch that don't want to get eaten have to do slave work.' Poor little guys. 'Our recommendation, don't visit Canary Island or even the Southern cape of Outback Island. Birds are worse than reptiles!'"

"What do they have against reptiles?" Asked Jawful.

"Oh, that." Said Clawhauser. "For a century, Zootopia has been a mammal-exclusive city because a pit viper was framed for killing the Lynxley family maid. Because of that, no mammal trusted any reptile after that, and they were forced to live in a secret club in Marsh Market, which I'm glad didn't get buried in snow! Have you tasted their tilapia?"

"Shush!" Said the capybara.

"Maybe we should leave." Said Jawful, and they decided to leave the library while Clawhuaser rambled about Zootopia's history.

-------------------------------------

Later that evening on Renato's boat, our four heroes have been on sea for eight hours. The gang finished dinner, and Nick has finished sharing his childhood trauma to Nibbles and Cory.

"Whoa." Said Nibbles. "You're telling me that a rodent put a muzzle on you when you were just a cub? Man, that's cruel!"

"Yes, something like that." Answered Nick. "As I told Carrots last year, if the world sees a fox as sly and untrustworthy, then that's what I'll be. But then Judy came by and changed all that!"

"At least the other birds don't mock or ridicule me for eating only fish and frogs." Said Cory. "Except for Nolan. He hates my dietary habits and ordered me to eat a reptile. That's where I crashed into that giant metal tree."

"You mean a building." Said Judy.

"Sorry if I sound off-topic," Nibbles interrupted. "But one time, I had a dream about the strangest animal of all: A human, which has skin like a pig, the body of a sloth without the fur, the front paws of a koala, the feet of a kangaroo, the eyes of a crocodile, the mouth and toes of a kinkajou, the ears of a hedgehog, the nose of a beaver, and hair on the top of their bald heads. To make matters worse, humans rule the world while animals don't talk or wear clothes. Instead, they either live in the wild, in zoos or aquariums, or as pets!"

"That seawater is messing with your brain, beaver." Said Renato. "I think you should all get some shuteye while I continue sailing. We'll arrive at Canary Island in the morning."

Author's Notes: It's been scientifically proven that sloths, koalas, panda bears, and guinea pigs aren't that smart.

Big Trouble in Little Rodentia is a play on the movie Big Trouble in Little China. It's also a name of a tie-in book for Zootopia 1.

Ted Badgers is a play on TV legend Fred Rogers, who happens to be one of my heroes.

In the world of Zootopia, the characters use Zoogle instead of Google.

The climax of Zootopia 1 took place in the Natural History Museum, which showcased how the city evolved throughout the millenia. I was gonna have Benjamin and Terrence visit the museum, but I figured that since birds aren't part of the city, they shouldn't be there.

When Nick Wilde was a cub, he wanted to forest the Junior Forest Scouts, despite being the only predators. The club members, which included a zebra, a hippo, a wildebeest, and what I think is a hyrax. Instead of embracing him with open hooves, the kids just bully Nick and place a muzzle on his face.

Zootopia 3 Chapter 3

Back in Bird Village, all the slave animals were working hard to not get eaten. On one tree is Floyd, a white-necked raven who was Nolan's right-wing bird. Similar to Cory, he believes that it's wrong to eat animals that talk, but since he's lower on the food chain than a hawk, he's allowed to eat fruit, bugs, peanuts, and whenever it washes up on the beach, Lucky Chomps. He had a discussion with Nolan on if they should leave the island.

"Excuse me, Nolan." He asked. "The puffins are complaining that it's too warm, the ibises are complaining it's too cold, and the swallows, blue jays, and cardinals want to migrate. What should I tell them?" Upon hearing this, Nolan started laughing like a maniac.

"Migrate?" He asked. "MIGRATE?! That is for cowards. Besides, we have everything we ever need right here. If a bird wants to be cold, just jump in the pond or the ocean. If a bird wants to be warm, go inside one of the birdhouses and wrap yourself with a squirrel. And even if we do run out of food, we can always eat the lower animals, and there are always more of those on Outback Island. Here, let me demonstrate." He flew down to a lower branch, snatched a mouse, and started demonstrating to Floyd.

"Here." Said the owl. "Let me demonstrate how fun it is to eat live flesh." Nolan picked up the mouse, who was practically begging and pleading to let him go, only for Nolan to place the mouse in his beak and swallow it whole. "There. Easy as 1-2-3. Get the picture?"

"Yes, sir!" Replied Floyd, but he still felt it was wrong.

----------------------------------------------

Back in Zootopia, Nick, Judy, and Cory arrive at Muddy Swamp via gondola. Judy sat next to Nick since she was still afraid of birds. The three made it to Nibbles' house, which was about the size of a garage: She pays her bills by doing wood commissions for the other animals. After hearing a knock on her door, Nibbles Maplestick answered the door and was surprised by two familiar faces.

"Why, if it ain't Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps!" She said. "And who is this new fella? A griffin?"

"My name is Cory," Said the bird. "And I'm a red-tailed hawk."

"Oh, you're a bird!" Said the beaver. "Reptiles may be my specialty, but birds are uncharted territory for me. Luckily for you, I know someone who sailed the whole ocean before, and he can go it again!"

"Is he at Marsh Market like last time?" Asked Nick. "I don't want to encounter a juggling seal again."

"No, he's at Zootopia Harbor!" Nibbles replied. "Besides, it wasn't a juggling seal. It was a juggling sea lion. Big difference. Anyway, everyone get in car, but be careful of splinters."

----------------------------------

After an hour of driving, the four animals made it to Zootopia Harbor. While in the car, Cory told Nibbles his whole story.

"You're from a faraway island where animals still eat other animals that can talk?" She asked. "Now, that is sick! If you're a bird, why aren't you flying?"

"Because I sprained my wings by smashing into a window." Cory replied. "All these metal trees have holes in them protected by invisible forcefields.

"You mean glass?" Asked Nibbles. "We place those on windows so bugs don't get in. Unless you happen to like eating bugs. I had to eat worms to get approval from a secluded group of reptiles, and yuck! I'm not trying that again." Soon, the foursome arrived at a house near the dock. The door opened, and a seal as big as Chief Bogo came out!

"Let me guess." Said Nick. "You're a sea lion and not a seal."

"A sea lion, I am not, you land lubbers!" The seal bellowed in a raspy voice. "I'm a Caribbean monk seal, and I've been living in Zootopia for 50 years. The name's Renato, and what can I do for you today?"

"We need a trip to Canary Island as soon as you can!" Said Judy. "See this hawk? He comes from Canary Island, where animals still eat animals that talk! And the ones that don't want to get eaten have to do cruel labor: Operating elevators, planting flowers, building birdhouses..."

"Enough blabbering." Said Renato. "Canary Island. Haven't heard of that place in a long time. I've been there once, but they are savages! No offense, beaked one."

"None taken." Said Cory. "But I only eat fish and frogs for meat. Never mammals or reptiles!"

"If that's the case," Said Renato. "I tip my hat to you, Brown Feathers."

"It's Cory." Said the hawk.

"Do you get paid in money or fish?" Asked Nick. "I still have trauma from that sea lion."

"I'm not like one of those sea lions, fox." Said Renato. "Thirty bucks for a round trip. Do any of you have money on you? I don't do trips for free."

"Luckily for you," Said Judy. "I happen to have enough money on me." She walked over to Renato to give him the money: A twenty dollar bill and a five dollar bill.

"That will do, lassie!" Renato bellowed. "Off to Canary Island we go! It will take a day to get there, so make sure all ye electronics are fully charged!" The characters soon set off to Bird Village, unaware of the danger they'd put themselves in.

Author's Notes: In Zootopia 1, Clawhauser's favorite cereal was Lucky Chomps, a riff on Lucky Charms.

Floyd the white-necked raven is named after Floyd Norman, who worked at Disney during the 1950s and 1960s on films such as Sleeping Beauty, 101 Dalmatians, Mary Poppins, and The Jungle Book. He also worked at other animation studios such as Hanna-Barbera, Ruby-Spears (the company that did 80s Alvin and the Chipmunks), Film Roman, Pixar, and Filmation.

One of the residents of Marsh Market in Zootopia 2 is a juggling sea lion. Whatever you, don't call him a seal and don't throw coins into his bucket!

Also in Zootopia 2, in order to get accepted by the reptiles, Judy and Nick had to eat worms that could slither down your throat. Declining their food is considered disrespectful.

For those unfamiliar, the Caribbean monk seal was seal that lived in the Caribbean, hence it's name. These massive guys could grow up to 8 feet long and weigh up to 600 pounds! Similar to sloths and polar bears, algae would grow on their bodies, making them turn green. The Caribbean monk seal went extinct in 1952 due to hunting it for its blubber.

I decided to make Renato a Caribbean monk seal because I thought it would be cool to include an extinct animal in the Zootopia world. I was also inspired by how dodos still exist in the Animal Crossing video games, despite the fact that the bird went extinct about 400 years ago.

Renato is named after one of Disney's top CG animators, Renato Dos Anjos.

Renato working on a scene in Wreck-it Ralph.

Zootopia 3 Chapter 2

Meanwhile, in Zootopia's Savannah Central, a warthog sow got out of Bug-Burga after buying a rhino beetle sandwich with sweet potato fries. She saw what looked like a rock, only for a head to pop out and snapped her left tusk off!

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!" Said the voice. It was a snapping turtle. "I have stolen your tusk! Now I can sell this at the black market!" He started to slowly walk away, only for Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps to capture him. They were spying on the turtle in a ZPD police cruiser.

"Hopps and Wilde!" Said Nick.

"Wylde and Hopps!" Said Judy as she jumped on the turtle like a video game baddie.

"Curse you evolution for making me so slow!" Said the turtle. Nick grabbed the snapped tusk and gave it back to the warthog.

"Thank you so much!" Said the sow. "How can I ever repay you?"

"With 20 dollars." Said Nick.

"Nick!" Yelled Judy.

"Just kidding, madam." Said Nick. "It's on the house!" Nick and Judy put a muzzle on the turtle and placed it in the car. Nick was about to enter the car himself, but noticed something in the distance.

"Carrots." Said the fox. "You might want to check this out." Near the Waldorf Pasturia hotel was a body of an animal of some sorts.

"What do you think it is?" Asked Judy.

"Maybe it's a platypus." Said Nick. "But do platypuses have feathers?"

"No, platypuses have fur." Responded Judy. "If it has feathers, that would make it a..." She soon realized what it was: A bird, to which she is afraid of. When Judy was a kitten, she visited an aviary on a faraway island, only to almost get taken by a bird that looked just like the one unconscious! Luckily, she got rescued by a kangaroo, but since then, Judy felt every bird would try to eat her.

"Are you okay, Fluff?" Asked Nick. "You seem tense."

"Oh, that?" Responded Judy. "It was just my gynophobia kicking in." Suddenly, the bird woke up from unconsciousness.

"Whoa, what happened?" He asked.

"Well, it's a known fact that birds can't see glass." Said Nick. "For all we know, he probably crashed into the window. Also, we don't run around in our birthday suits unless you're at the The Mystic Spring Oasis, which is in Sahara Square." While Nick went back to the car to get clothes for the bird, Judy asked him what his name is.

"Bird, what is your name?" She asked nervously.

"My name is Cory," Said the bird. "And I'm a red-tailed hawk." Judy flinched upon seeing that, since she happened to be taken away by a red-tailed hawk that faithful day. Nick then arrived with his hustler clothes to place on Cory.

"Is that your outfit from when you were still a shifty fox?" Asked Judy.

"Yes, actually." Responded Nick as he placed his clothes on Cory. "Also, I never got your name."

"His name is Cory." Said Judy. "Which reminds me, we have a turtle to return to custody! You can come with us Cory, but try not to sit next to me."

"Okay, but that means I'm driving." Said Nick. As they got in the police cruiser, Cory asked Judy about what's wrong.

"What's wrong, rabbit?" Asked Cory.

"The name's Judy." Said the rabbit. "I have a bit of an aversion to birds."

"You're afraid of birds, Carrots?" Asked Nick. "You're telling me that you're not afraid of foxes, bears, Chief Beef, snakes, jaguars, lynxes, rams, or rhinos, yet you're afraid of birds?"

"I was a kitten when it happened, Nick." Said Judy. "I was nearly taken away by a hawk and got saved by a kangaroo. End of story."

"Let me get this straight." Said Cory. "You think that I might eat you?"

"Well, yes." Said Judy. "Birds of prey eat smaller mammals, including rabbits."

"But not me!" Said Cory. "The only meat I eat are fish and large frogs. Never mammals or reptiles."

"Really?" Asked Judy.

"Cross my heart." He crossed his heart using his talon, only to rip the fabric in Nick's shirt.

"Now arriving at the ZPD." Said Nick Wilde. "We'll carry the turtle together while Cody walks by himself."

"It's Cory." Said the hawk. The three animals arrived in the ZPD building and were greeted by Benjamin Clawhauser. The cheetah was super surprised to see the hawk by Nick and Judy's side.

"O-M-Goodness!" He said. "What is that brown thing? He looks like something out of Harry Porker! Also, Terrence will take that turtle for you." Terrence Jawful, the first reptile cop in Zootopia, walked over and took the turtle from Nick and Judy.

"What's his crime, Hopps?" He asked Judy.

"He snapped a warthog's tusk off to sell to the black market." She said. "Nick filmed the whole crime scene secretly with his phone."

"Guilty as charged." Said the fox.

"This turtle will be doing time in jail." Said Terrence. "And the toilets will be clogged, so don't even think of escaping!" As Terrence walked off, Nick and Judy told Chawhauser about Cory.

"This is Cory, and he's a red-tailed hawk." Judy explained. "In case you didn't know, hawks are a type of bird, and we want to know if Zootopia has a secret bird population."

"I don't think so." Said Benjamin. "You should bring your hawk friend to Chief Bogo. He'll know what to do." The three animals walked over to Chief Bogo office, where he was watching a EweTube video on his phone featuring Gazelle singing a cover of Part of Your Wool from The Little Manatee. When Nick, Judy, and Cory entered the room, he turned his phone off and pretended to look focused.

"Chief Bogo!" Judy shouted. "Nick and I captured the turtle, but we also found an injured red-tailed hawk who crashed into Waldorf Pasturia!"

"Hawk?" Asked Bogo. "As in a bird?"

"Yes, Chief Beef." Nick replied. "Does Zootopia have a secret bird population like how they did with reptiles?"

"No." Said Chief Bogo. "And please refrain from calling me Chief Beef or Chief Buffalo Butt, unless you want to be on the unemployment line. Anyway, regarding your bird friend."

"It's Cory." Said the hawk.

"Yes." "Bogo continued. "Regarding Cory, there is only one known location on Earth where birds live." He pulls down a map of the whole world and points it to an island below Outback Island, about 2/3 the size of Gnu Jersey. "Canary Island. It may be small, but its village is home to over 30 different bird species." Upon hearing village, memories started flashing in Cory's mind: He came from Bird Village on Canary Island, and he was sent to find a reptile, or else he's dead meat!

"I need to find a reptile!"

"A reptile?" Asked Judy. "Well, luckily for you, Zootopia has a recently defrosted reptile village, and we're best friends with a snake. In fact, Gary Dessnake's great grandmother Agnes is the creator of the Weather Wall, and because of that..."

"Not a reptile to meet." Said Cory. "A reptile to eat." Everyone was shocked when those words came out of Cory's beak.

"Sorry, but in Zootopia, we don't eat anything that talks." Said Nick. "If you want your meat, stick with bugs, fish, mollusks, and crustaceans."

"Not where I come from, sadly." Said Cory. "On Canary Island, if you're not a bird, you have to work or else you'll get eaten."

"That's awful!" Said Judy. "Those poor animals are practically slaves. Nick, it looks like we have another case! Chief Bogo, we're off to Canary Island to rescue those animal slaves and maybe change the order of things there."

"Sorry Hopps, but that's a suicide mission." Said Chief Bogo. "There are some things you can't change. It's the way things are." Judy jumped onto Bogo's desk to chew him out.

"Pardon me if I risk getting fired," She started. "But I can't just stand here when mammals and reptiles are getting eaten like a pack of savage predators! When Zootopia was founded, we were able to find an alternate meat source for predators, and they managed to live side by side without killing each other! If mammals and reptiles aren't different from each other, then neither are birds! Nick and I have not been here as long as you, Clawhauser, McHorn, or Higgins, but we managed to save the city twice! Can you think of any other animal who's done that?! Chief Bogo, we are going to Canary Island to free to slave animals whether you like it or not!" Chief Bogo just stood there silently.

"Gee." He said with shock. "I thought all rabbits were timid herbivores who are better off gardening. When you came along, you changed my view of your kind. Very well, then. You can go to Canary Island to free to slave animals, but be warned: Birds are a lot less understanding than mammals or even reptiles. In case you get in trouble, take these." He handed Nick and Judy small boxes with red buttons on them. "These are homing beacons that will alert us back at the ZPD, no matter where on Earth you are. Now go on. Go change the world again." As Nick, Judy and Cory left Bogo's office, the rabbit noticed something.

"Wait a minute." She said. "We need a professional sailor, but no animal in Zootopia is crazy enough to go to Canary Island."

"I know someone who might." Said Nick. "If Nibbles Maplestick helped you find the reptile hideout and me escape from jail, then maybe she could join us on our adventure."

"That sounds like a good plan!" Said Cory. "But who's Nibbles?"

Author's Notes: Concept art for Zootopia 1 would reveal that, aside from fish, the predators get their protein from a fast food joint called Bug Burga. The restaurant doesn't appear in the movies, but Bug Burga boxes appear in both films.

Similarly, in The Art of Zootopia 1, there were logos for lots of brands within the Zootopia universe, including Waldorf Pasturia, Hyraximum, bitecoin, CinnaBone, and Hoof Locker.

Gynophobia is a fear of nudity.

Even though many of Zootopia's residents wear clothes, some of them prefer to be naked. Those animals go to the naturalist club in The Mystic Spring Oasis, run by the very skinny yak Yax.

A lot of people don't know this, but young rabbits are not called bunnies, but kittens.

In the movies, Nick's derogatory nicknames for Chief Bogo include Chief Buffalo Butt, Buffalo Gruffalo, and Chief Beef.

In Zootopia 2, Nick wanted him and Judy to escape to Outback Island until the whole thing blows over.

Also in Zootopia 2, the characters use EweTube instead of YouTube.

In Zootopia 1, along with her hit single Try Everything, other songs Gazelle has performed include Let it Goat, Part of Your Wool, Can You Feel the Fluff, and Ara-Bunny Nights, all spoofs of older Disney songs.

Canary Island is a riff on the real Canary Islands off the coast of Spain.

When I was a kid, I used to think Spider-Pig in The Simpsons Movie was renamed Harry Porker instead of Harry Plopper since pork was made from pigs.
