    Carnivores in Zootopia eat fish and insects, which are considered non-sapient, as well as plant-based food.

      By fish do you mean bees and beavers? The Vatican and State of California have urgent questions that must be answered about this film.

        Scientists just found sentience in a small fish, so… Yea.

        Anyone, including the writers of Zootopia, that say animals aren’t sentient and especially if they say they don’t have emotions and feel things … are just telling you they are an unempathetic monster.

            To even have to use the word sapient over sentient is to draw a line that humanity still does not know how to discern from the vast majority of the animal kingdom.

            Basically, you’re choosing to be one of those heartless morons that want to deny the sentience of animals.

              Mate, the point is that they’re not talking cartoon anthropomorphic animals, like the characters in Zootopia are. Was that really not obvious or are you just in the mood to argue and insult some people for no reason?

                How can you fail to realize that I also am talking about real animals?

                Seriously, you goons are so hellbent on pretending thst real animals cannot feel that it is truly beyond pathetic…

                    If you don’t take the fact that humans are not special and that many animals also have felings as … a fact, you are not a shitposter, but an actual piece of shit.

          I would love to read that article and see how they defined sentiences, senescence, tumescence, sapience, all that for their research. shitposting aside that sounds really interesting.
