In a world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals, Judy Hopps, a rabbit from rural Bunnyburrow, fulfills her childhood dream of becoming the first rabbit police officer in the city of Zootopia. On her first day at the Zootopia Police Department (ZPD), Judy is assigned to parking duty by Chief Bogo, who underestimates her potential. During her shift, she is hustled by red fox con artist Nick Wilde, who tells her she will never be a real cop. The next day, Judy abandons her post to arrest small-time crook Duke Weaselton for robbing a florist right in front of her. Afterwards, Mrs. Otterton visits Bogo, pleading for someone to find her husband Emmitt - he is one of several predators who have gone missing. Judy volunteers to take the case without waiting for permission, and an annoyed Bogo warns her she must solve it within 48 hours, or turn in her badge.
