Argumentative Essay On Zootopia
Zootopia is a film that illustrates a city of animals, both predator and prey, living in harmony until an otter and several other predators go missing. It is up to the first ever bunny police officer, Judy Hopps, to solve these disappearances. As the unity within the city begins to disappear, a newscast is shown saying, “Zootopia is a unique place, it is a crazy beautiful diverse city where we celebrate our differences. This is not the Zootopia
I know, the Zootopia I know is better than this. We don’t just blindly assign blame. We don’t know why these attacks keep happening, but it is irresponsible to label all predators as savages. We cannot let fear divide us.” In Zootopia , Disney uses the children’s film genre to depict social …show more content…

Zootopia is a film in which all ages could watch and learn about social issues and how they are detrimental to society, unless society goes through the effort to eradicate
