Since Zootopia 2 is out now, I would just like to hop on here and offer you the friendly neighborhood reminder that the concept of telling stories about “Dressed Animals” as C. S. Lewis described them, is a literary practice that dates back centuries, all the way to Aesop’s Fabels, and has been employed/revered by great children’s authors ever since, including (but not limited to) the aforementioned C.S. Lewis, Kenneth Graham, L. Frank Baum, Lewis Carol, Beatrix Potter, Shel Silverstein, and Walt Disney himself. This was a noble and honorable practice long before anything in modern culture twisted it, and you do NOT have to preface the fact that you enjoyed a formative, well-writen story with solid morals and endearing characters with the fact that you are “not a furry”.
