there is some interviews, they didn't answer precisely, even if they ponder the question. To me, it seemed they see these characters as "people" (humans) having some fantasy features allowing to talk about diversity and stuff.so, if they do a Zootopia 2, I would imagine easily, if they want to continue with social concerns, it could be about the hilarious adventure of Nick and Judy trying to become a couple in front of not so thrilled family (and new players like the crazy fathers of Nicky, because all fathers are crazy in movies) and of course a dark scheme by some villains to destruct the town from the interior by manipulating moral. But it wouldn't be about What people eat. (they eat icecream and insectburger of course, new sensations in Disneyland ^_- )For that theme, Kevin and Kell ( www.kevinandkell.com ) would be the best thing. It's a very core theme of the comics. But I'm still believing it's what makes Kevin and Kell impossible to relate to. In that very long webcomics, _ALL_ animals, all _living_ creatures are sentient, _all_, and they have aLL their "realistic" diet. it makes for a very insane world where people lives happily with their own future or family murderers. But it's for comedy !anyway, about the poultry, there is no "humanized birds" in the movie. It has to be a conscious decision. Either feathers in CGI didn't interest them (boring, too much movie with cgi feather already ?), or the zootopia brand is all about mammals and yes, poultry are food, or they kept them away to create new exciting characters for new movies ?In the end, I like to write about Zootopia, but to me, we shouldn't try to think too much about these characters with "realism" (whatever a sentient talking fox would be realistic or close to a real fox), they are a "function" to convey a story and not an experiment about diet in a closed environment. To me it was clearly a movie about The United States of America (beware: I'm not an us citizen, I'm french, so totally clueless) and social tensions in it. I'll defend my point of view, for fun, but of course it's only an opinion ^^,but there is an other way to see the whole debateWhat if in Zootopia, ALL characters are in fact omnivores/carnivores ? If you want to be absolutely serious about your science in a fantasy cartoon world, you have to address the problem of high energy consuming brain.An astute and sensible rabbit as Judy (and she would be quite an incredible creature if one day scientists create an intelligent bipedal rabbit. Imagine, she would be fast, strong legs, full of hair for harsh winter and with very dangerous teeth. Not someone to bother in the subway...) would need many proteins and energy for her complex brain able of high reasoning, caring, intellectual prowess and so on. She couldn't be able to sustain only with carrots or common plants. Like a vegetarian having to deal with biology, she would need a very controlled diet or to eat some meat.A sentient humanized bunny could be in fact an omnivore !The craziness wouldn't be about a fox eating vegetable, but about a bunny eating meat ! Ho My God
