Humans. Every other evolutionary species was there only humans were missing. Why? We were being farmed.
Were? We still are.

If we’re talking a “zoo” utopia I’d imagine it involve some sort of retribution.
Oh my god it all makes sense now
What’s an “evolutionary species” versus a “species”?
“Soylent Green is people! People!!!”
“… Yeah…? What else would it be?”
Emm…plant? Plant-based icecream is a thing.
There’s no reason to invent plant milk if you don’t already consume milk. It’s a product that was designed to emulate and replace something else that already exists.
Coconut milk and cream are not uncommon ingredients in southeast Asian cuisine where dairy is an uncommon ingredient.
Dairy is common ingredient in India and we still use coconut milk or cream in some recipes
Because nothing is ever being invented if not to replace something?
That argument is just wrong. If it was true there’d be exactly one drink and one food. Because we’d only invent something new if it was to replace the existing thing.
Yes, this argument is wrong. Which is why i wasn’t making it.
Plant milk, specifically, is something that you woudln’t think to invent unless you’re trying to replace cow milk.

It’s zootopia, most mammal drink milk, so maybe they grow up liking milk and found a way to make one using plant-based material because drinking your neighbours milk is just awkward.
Do you mean sorbet ?
So… animals can’t drink animal milk but humans can?
Humans even drink human milk. Crazy how that works
Shh don’t scare big dairy
Indeed!
Nothing funnier than people starting to realise how weird it is to drink milk
I’m more weirded out about people thinking “breast milk” is gross, even calling it that instead of human milk is weird.
It’s not weird, is it?
It’s not, almost everyone has drunk human milk. It’s actually not that bad.
I was fucked by Nestlé and didn’t got to taste my mom’s boobs.
This guy right here officer 👆
It was not that hard… But now it is!
It’s one of those things that gets weirder the longer you think about it. Pouring some cow milk from a carton I to your cereal? Totally not weird. Beef juice squeezed from some utter, along with puss and hormones, ultra heated and squirted through a fine mesh? Pretty weird.
There’s nothing weird about drinking milk.
Depends how you do it.
They had a nudist colony in the movie where they very clearly showed rears and crotches that had nothing there. So why was Judy so flustered by their nudity? 🤔 Perhaps it wasn’t because they were naked, but that there were all freaks that lacked buttholes and genitals.
Almost any meat or dairy products they’d be eating would questionable in that movie. How are the carnivore animals surviving? Do they just eat tofu? Or is there some sort of population of slave animals that are kept un-evolved that are born & bred for meat/dairy products?
How are the carnivore animals surviving? Do they just eat tofu?
This is exactly what the movie explains. There’s an underground black market dealing with kidnapping and illegal meat.
Or am I confusing this with Beastars?
Pretty sure this is beastars
Extras for the movie explained that it is processed insect protein. The intelligent animals in their world are exclusively mammals. No insects or reptiles etc.
The mammals part is in the early part with the play Judy is in.
Humans obviously. They just didn’t show the farms because they didn’t want to scare the children.
Almond milk 😅
How do you get milk from an almond? It’s fucking juice
Juice is reserved for liquids extracted from fruits and veggies. Almonds are neither, they’re nuts (well, seed really). It’s called almond milk because of it’s appearance and texture. the more you knooooow.
But if it is not extracted from them and they are not milked, how do the liquid thingy comes to be?
Almond milk itself is basically just a slurry of ground almonds and water.
So, almond milk is a tea.
Or soup, we could all be talking about soup.
And enzymes! I don’t know exactly what and how, but to make a smooth plant milk we all know and not an ugly mixture of water and grinded seeds/nuts enzymes are necessary.
Wdym how? Almonds are nipples of the tree. I thought everyone knew that!
The cows. None of this is weird.
So you don’t think it’s weird to have a farm of humans that have children every 9 months and get milked in mass production?
Cows and humans are not the same animal and it’s incredibly stupid to think they are.
Probably the same as who gets milked in real life. Animals drink milk too I don’t understand why people are constantly thrown off by this, it’s just as normal if not more normal to drink milk in the animal kingdom.
Farming milk involves forcefully insemination cows to get pregnant so they produce milk in the first place. Often times in factory farming, their calves are taken away for “repurposing”. Combine that with the typical living conditions for the average milk cow and it wouldn’t be hard to imagine why people that have any idea of how the industry functions would be thrown off by this.
Imagine human women being treated like this for the milk they produce so that you get to enjoy a cheap pleasure.
We sell breast milk without forcefully inseminating women just fine, this leap of logic doesn’t make any sense. We treat cows as livestock because we view cows as animals not people, whether their treatment is cruel or not is a different irrelevant argument, but in Zootopia they’d just be seen as people and would have control over the supply so obviously cows wouldn’t be treated the same way in Zootopia as they are in real life. They’d only have to milk themselves and sell it just like when women sell breast milk in real life. If anything it’s even less weird and disturbing to think about than in real life.
In Zootopia it’s probably a job they get compensated for.
Tell me you know nothing about farming without actually saying it.
Cows and other livestock are raised in farms to raise more cows anyway. Farmers don’t keep male cows around for fun, and cows aren’t pets. All non-breeding stock gets eaten.
I’m not sure about other animals, but humans can induce lactation without pregnancy.
Your last paragraph is part of the premise of Mad Max: Fury Road
don’t compare women to cows
It’s not the drinking milk thats weird. It’s the fact that they would have to be farming milk from intelligent animals to get it. Like if cows could talk and were as smart as humans I think people would find farming milk from them a little weird.
The milk drinking is just as weird, since no other animal continues drinking milk after passing their baby state. Only humans do that.
Your comment is proof that my cat is human.
no other animal continues drinking milk after passing their baby state
any predator will eat lactating mammaries. birds and reptiles are also known to drink mammalian milk.
Not as strange as Mongolians, who drink horse blood.
no other animal continues drinking milk after passing their baby state
This is not even close to true. Even adult cows will occasionally grab a sip from another cow or even themselves.
How is it more weird to get milk from intelligent animals that are capable of giving consent?
Humans sell their own breastmilk to other humans for human consumption all the time in real life, it is completely normal for humans to drink human milk as well as the milk or other animals. The only difference in Zootopia is that every animal would be providing their milk consensually and likely selling it themselves. There’s nothing weird about that.
All mammals drink milk, that’s literally the defining biological trait of them. Hoomans are also mammals.
Almonds
Tofu
Can someone please explain to me what predators eat in Zootopia? Surely they can’t survive on plants alone.
Bugs, birds, reptiles. In Zootopia, only mammals are anthropomorphic.
Wasn’t there an alligator cop? And some kind of bird, as a mail carrier I think?
…Nope, all mammals. I wonder if there’s a lore thing about only mammals being highly intelligent or if there are other places with other classes of animals?
In real life when you look at the most intelligent animals on earth, most of them are mammals. It makes sense that they would achieve human level intelligence before any other class of animal.
Many of those were birds, and I’m not sure if I agree with putting ants and bees on the intelligence list. They’re behaviours are complex but not very reactive.
I didn’t see any cemeteries.
You can make a movie about people without showing any animal but show the characters eating meat.
So if in Zootopia they were eating Humans we wouldn’t see the human life stock farming. So we can’t assume they don’t eat humans.
Human beans.
Soy. The whole thing is a far right allegory for the effects of soy to reminisce society. A literal sheeple then tries to have them all muzzled when they just act according to their own natural state to get to taste real red meat. In the end the liberal vegetarians win, a dark ending for conservatives but not as dark as the abortion arc they had to cut out where the right wing fox deals with the liberal bunny killing his unborn.
Lab grown meat I assume.
Who’s to say cows can’t be milked in Zootopia?
If you can earn money by donating blood and organs (i.e. part of a kidney or liver), guys can earn money donating sperm, women donating eggs, then why couldn’t a Zootopia cow (or other mammals for that matter) donate their milk?Because they’d have to be pregnant first, and they’d rather feed their calves.
Also, why am I taking this seriously?
You’re not wrong, maybe cows choose formula and sell their milk?
Fuck knows ¯\(ツ)/¯maybe there’s a zootopia Nestlé that all the animals also fucking hate and want to go away because Nestlé is a cancer on this earth as well as anyone that works for them.
fuck Nestlé
Seriously, Fuck Nestlé.
Can’t get rid of them because they hide behind a litany of brands (and companies) in order to avoid their bad reputation, making it almost impossible for the average person to properly boycott them without knowing just how many brands (and companies) they own.
Cows produce excess milk, and many animals will continue to lactate if milked for an extended period even after giving birth and no longer being pregnant. If it makes them money then why not?
Ice cream in zootopia is vegan.
