Zootopia
Zootopia (titled Zootropolis or Zoomania in various regions) is a 2016 American animated buddy cop action comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It was directed by Byron Howard and Rich Moore, co-directed by Jared Bush (in his feature directorial debut), and produced by Clark Spencer, from a screenplay written by Bush and Phil Johnston, and a story by Howard, Moore, Bush, Johnston, Jim Reardon, Josie Trinidad, and Jennifer Lee. The film stars the voices of Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Idris Elba, Jenny Slate, Nate Torrence, Bonnie Hunt, Don Lake, Tommy Chong, J. K. Simmons, Octavia Spencer, Alan Tudyk, and Shakira. Taking place in the titular city where anthropomorphic mammals coexist, it tells a story of an unlikely partnership between a rabbit police officer and a fox con artist as they uncover a criminal conspiracy involving the disappearance of some of its predatory citizens. Zootopia premiered at the Brussels Animation Film Festival in Belgium on February 13, 2016, and went into general theatrical release in Disney Digital 3-D, RealD 3D, IMAX 3D, and 4DX formats in the United States on March 4. Zootopia received positive reviews from critics, who praised its screenplay, animation, voice acting, subject matter, and Michael Giacchino's musical score. The film opened to record-breaking box offices in several countries, and earned a worldwide gross of over $1 billion, making it the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2016. Among other accolades, the film was named one of the top ten best films of 2016 by the American Film Institute and won Best Animated Feature at the 89th Academy Awards.

Just quit and go home, fuzzy bunny! There's never been a bunny cop. - Never. - Never. Just a stupid, carrot-farming dumb bunny, As mayor of Zootopia, I am proud to announce... that my Mammal Inclusion Initiative has produced... its first police academy graduate. Valedictorian of her class, ZPD's very first rabbit officer... Judy Hopps. Oh, gosh.
Zootopia
We're real proud of you, Judy. Yeah. Scared, too. Really, it's kind of a proud-scared combo. I mean, Zootopia. So far away. Such a big city. Guys... I've been working for this my whole life. We know. And we're just a little excited for you, but terrified. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. And also bears. We have bears to fear, too. Say nothing of lions and wolves. - Wolves? - Weasels. You play cribbage with a weasel. And he cheats like there's no tomorrow.
Zootopia
You know what, pretty much all predators. And Zootopia's full of them. Oh, Stu. And foxes are the worst. Actually, your father does have a point there. It's in their biology. Remember what happened with Gideon Grey? When I was nine. Gideon Grey was a jerk who happened to be a fox. I know plenty of bunnies who are jerks. Sure, we all do. Absolutely. But just in case... we made you a little care package to take with you. - And I put some snacks in there. - This is fox deterrent. Yeah, that's safe, to have that. This is fox repellent. The deterrent and the repellent, that's all she needs. - Check this out! - For goodness sake. She has no need for a fox Taser, Stu. Come on. When is there not a need for a fox Taser? Okay, look! I will take this, to make you stop talking. Terrific! Everyone wins! Arriving, Zootopia Express.
