The film followed a female named Judy Hopps (A bunny) and her street wise side kick Nick Wilde (An English red fox) as they tracked down the cause of an affliction that turned mild mannered predators back to their ancient predatory behaviors. The “Savage Scare” as the event became known in Zootopian history endangered the peace and stability of the thriving populace where predatory animals live in peace with their prey counter parts. In many ways...the film Zootopia was a mirror reflection of the times it was designed to portray. For it’s time, Zootopia was the most successful Disney animated movie until the first Frozen movie surpassed it in box office gross. The film is especially popular with world wide furry culture.\n\n‭ The movie centers around Judy as a member of the city state’s police force known as the “ZPD” and as with any policing organization, the ZPD is tasked with maintaining the public order and universal peace. This attempt at creating a Zootopia based role playing game centers on the ZPD, who enforce the laws of the City/State and maintain its peace, and those elements of criminal activity that exist in Zootopia as they would in any large metropolis. The players of the RPG have the opportunity to play both sides of the coin as either a Peace Officer or any level of criminals from petty thugs to syndicate crime bosses.\n\n‭page 2\n\nWhat makes up Zootopia\n\n The city/state of Zootopia is made up of districts and Burroughs which are “tailor made” to support the vast array of diverse mammals from the small Arctic shrew to the great Elephants. Every mammal has the choice to live in sections designed to support their species and respect their individual need for comfort and health. Many parts of Zootopia are climate controlled by mechanical means such as Tundra Town (where it always snows) and Sahara Square (Which is kept in a dry, slightly rainy environment such as in Egypt). A visitor would also notice that each part of Zootopia reflects architecture suitable for different animals or that their living arrangement meets their individual species behavior and way of life. Otters have houses under water, Beaver houses resemble their traditional river dams and rabbits live in gigantic muli-story homes that jut from the hills in Bunny Borough. Of course Bunnies need huge houses because they (beep) like crazy! “They’re good at multiplication.” as Judy Hopps will tell you. Judy comes from a family of over 300 rabbits...In ONE house!\n\nThe individual sections of Zootopia are....\n\nCITY CENTER\n\n The city center is the busy and bustling financial and economic heart of Zootopia where most of your commerce and industry are. This is where you have the true melting pot of the city/state where predators and prey live and work together. City Center is not climate controled though it can have periods of rain, sun, snow or storms depending on the general season. The City Center is built on a sloping conical hill which is dominated by the Tamamo Tower at the very top. Tamamo Tower is the city’s financial management center which holds the Zootopian stock exchange, many banking and investment firms and legal practices and the national treasury department which produces and distributes currency.\n\n\nPage 3\n\n City Center is also the home of the Zootopia Police Department Central Management Division or the “CMD”. CMD therefore is the First Precinct of the Department or “First Prinky” as it’s pet name goes. CMD coordinates and manages the mammal power for all policing in the city/state, it is also the most busy Precinct in the ZPD as there’s never a dull moment in the downtown district between ticketing parking violators and apprehending mammals for such silly offenses as “Tail tip nip assault” or worse, selling “smack” to teenagers outside of the public schools. “Smack” in Zootopia is a super high grade form of illegal cat nip. Nothing costs a school more than an out of control tiger high on “smack” trashing a classroom because some joker though it funny to tease him with a laser pen.\n\nTundra Town\n\n Tundra Town is always kept at arctic conditions year round by the way of giant air conditioners and snow machines that are set atop the large concrete wall (The climate wall) that rings Tundra Town from the Northern tip where Tundra Town meets the Meadowlands and down and around to the Eastern tip by the Polar Strait. This is where a majority of your polar and cold weather mammals like to live such as polar bears, arctic shrew, penguins and seals. There are few cars driven around Tundra Town because of the constant snow and ice so many mammals get around by skating, skiing, motor sleds or by “Oooboo” the husky and horse sled driver service.\n\n Tundra town’s main commercial industry is fishing and seafood. It is also home to the city/states major shipyard and iron works facility “GMCY” or General Mariner Commissioning Yards which is owned currently by Mister Vicenzo Lanzoni aka “Mister Big” the arctic Shew crime boss from the movie. GCY supplies the Zootopian Navy with its’ fleet of destroyers and underwater remote operation attack submarines as well as commercial boats and ships of all classes and types.\n\nPage 4\n\n Tundra Town seems to always be in a never-ending “Christmas time” holiday feel. It really is beautiful in white and the inhabitants are always inviting and friendly. You will never leave Tundra Town empty handed because someone’s always passing out a free coco mug or hand made scarf and hat. Policing of course requires special vehicles for getting around and the traffic division here is busy because as Chief Bogo usually says...”Mammals don’t drive well in an inch of snow.” A fender bender between a pig from Sahara Square and a Malamut Oooboo usually ends up a pretty nasty incident report.\n\nSAHARA SQUARE\n\n Sahara Square is uniquely suited for desert dwelling Mammals like Egyptian Camels, desert foxes, desert rats and other Middle East and American Southwest, Central and South American mammals. It has a blended architecture from all these regions mixed with more modern buildings. Sahara Square is a tourist destination with its’ long coast line, sandy beach fronts and the huge Palm Desert Hotel which towers over the square. On the beach fronts you’ll find casinos, night clubs, outdoor food and garden courts and a variety of restaurants and relaxation centers where mammals can “strip” away all their cares, go au natural and “ferry out” meaning they can go feral and play naked.\n\n The most popular sport in Zootopia is soccer which is played in Vornoy Stadium on Sahara’s Southwest side. Soccer games of course always spike up incidents for the ZPD to handle like rowdy hooligans causing fights in bars or fans stampeding through the streets causing all kinds of crazy distress. The most prevelent crimes that occur in Sahara are pick pockets, car break ins, numbers rackets, scams, prostitution and “HG” (High Grade Cat Nip) pushing.\n\nPage 5\n\n Sahara Square is also home to one of two big Fleet Marine bases in Zootopia, the Amphibious Warfare school and the fleet carborundum where all the Marine’s vehicles are built, maintained and repaired. There is also the major Naval base at Sandy Cove where the fleet destroyers and Amphibious warfare fleets are parked and maintained.\n\nSAVANNA CENTRAL\n\n Savanna Central is where all the central and south Africana, Australian and South Pacific and Euro-Asian/Indian mammals live. It is a diverse landscape with wide open African like plains, Indian like jungles and Australian outback flora and fauna. Savanna is the least worrisome spot in terms of crime because....who will even dare to get testy with a lion? Yet crime does happen and for a time the biggest crime boss in Savanna is or was the notorious African Honey Badger, James Whitey Badger, a ruthless and dangerous crime lord who made life in Savanna hell until or until he gets or got taken down by the ZPD.\n\n Savanna is also home to the largest Fleet Marine Force training and test center, MCB Quanaco with the attached recruit training depot MCRD Savanna. The Marines normally behave....that is until they get a little too much juice which then they get board and then they get destructive. Not a weekend goes by where a few drunk Tiger or Wolf Marines end up in the “Savanna Slammah” to suffer out their hang overs. \n\nRAIN FOREST\n\n Rain Forest District is considered by many in the ZPD to be “choice” duty because there’s almost zero crime and there’s no cars. Auto vehicles are banned from Rain Forest and Mammals get around by means of elevated cable bridges, bikes, walking, cable runs or on secluded by-ways they can strip naked and go feral...running, flying and jumping their way to and from the parking garages around the perimeter of the forest preserve. The ZMTA or “Zipper” train of the Zootopian Mass Transit Authority does service throughout rain forest from the central liner to small electric powered trollies.\n\npage 6\n\n Most often, ZPD officers who live in rain forest are posted here and they have to be physically built to handle the patrol responsibilities and often the requirements as first responders and EMT technicians. While crime is low, accidents from mis-steps, climbing and being foolish are not. Often ZPD officers must rappel around trees, cliffs or be lowered by helicopter to hard to reach places to assist injured mammals. The usually assigned officers to rain forest are wolves and tigers.\n\n Rain forest is populated by your jungle-ade, Everglade, deep forest and water dwelling mammals like Panda, Seals, otters, beavers, Racoon Dogs (Tanuki), wolves and marsupials like Kowala. It is a quiet and peaceful section of Zootopia which makes being posted as a police officer more boring and slow but you can’t beat the beauty of the place and you still get paid good money for your hours of sleeping.\n\nThe Meadow Lands\n\n The Meadow Lands are for your equine grazer species like deer, sheep, rams, Moose, Elk and other long green grass lovers. This is the other peaceful place in Zootopia with a low crime rate and high boredom rate for posted officers. Meadow Lands has a sheriff and a few deputies because of its small size and the relative ease of getting to where trouble might creep up.\n\n Meadow Lands is also the home of the Zootopian Navy’s attack submarine drone fleet based out of Wooly Rock Naval Base. The Sailors there cause very little trouble save the occasional speeding infraction and a few incidents with intoxication. Otherwise, it’s another well paid sleep fest for posted officers.\n\nPage 7\n\nThe Tri Burroughs\n\nBunny- podunk - Deerbrook\n\n The Tri-Burroughs are a mix of cultural styles such as American small town and farm country, Scottish and Irish culture, English country side culture and peaceful European countryside living. The Burroughs are populated by rodent species, equines and vulpines with a few Ursaloids (bear) here and there. All the Burroughs have sheriffs with deputies and local town or village judges and magistrates. Crime is low for the most part and officers respond and handle disputes over everything from property line infractions and complaints to ownership of live stock and other small town complaints. The biggest crime in the “Tri’s” is moonshine and boot legging as high grade booze is deemed too dangerous for mammals to consume. Boot legging is a young mammal’s game because they “get off” on the excitement of teasing “Johny Law’s tailbone” and dodging the “Reg-teeth” from the Bureau of Spirits and vices which regulates “sin taxes” on luxury ingesticants.\n\nLittle Rodentia\n\n Ah....Little Rodentia, the little Italy of Zootopia. Here is where all the “little ones” live in relative safety with a very high iron fence separating them from the feet and hooves of the larger mammals. Until recently, Little Rodentia had no police precinct and thus crime flourished because it was too dangerous to allow huge police officers to trample their way around the miniature city. Chief Judy Wilde put a stop to that by creating Rodentia’s tough “Fort Bronco” Precinct led by it’s tough Chief, Justin Nimh (The rat Captain of the Guards Justin from Secret of Nimh) Fort Bronco is exclusively rodent stocked with Mice and Rats as police officers. Little Rodentia has both petty and organized crime from pick pockets to crime bosses running drugs ,racket games and prostitution. Occasionally Fort Bronco has to deal with some dumb “biggie” jumping the perimeter fence to escape the larger brothers of the blue brigade and if the fool thought he wouldn’t have to deal with “small fry” cops. He’s going to get a thrashing he wasn’t prepared for.\n\nPage 8\n\nZootopia correctional facility at shwartzwald\n\n “The big dawg collar”....”The electric fence”....”The steer poker” ZCF has a hundred names and they fit this prison where incorant miscreants are sent to be “spaded” or “neutered”. It’s as tuff as any federal prison and about as worse even though it’s never over-crowded. Officers assigned here have to watch their tails with some of the prison’s very nasty residents. Zootopia has a punishment to fit the crime scale and executions are often done by “euthin drugs” or by methods which equal the brutality and savagery of the offense committed. However...every mammal is precious in Zootopian society so reform and justice is up front. Even the criminal’s past is considered to see if they in turn deserve justice for wrongs which may have steered them to acts of crime, a program instituted by Judy Hopps after she fought to get Dawn Bellweather clemency and justice for the years of abuse she suffered as a small mammal where her only recourse left was a criminal act.\n\nTHE NORTH COUNTRY\n\n Past Tundra Town and over the Julius Bridge that spans the great Roana River that runs West to East, lies the sparsely inhabited North Country of Zootopia. The North Country is a great mountainous and forested range that was once the home of the Tusker Prey Confederation during Zootopia’s middle age. The Tusker Confederation was destroyed by the greatest power of the time, Wolfen Rome or the Lupinian Roman Empire.\n\n When Lupinian Rome collapsed, All of Zootopia fell into a bloody one hundred year holocaust called the Great Predatorial Civil War as the Predator species split between those who wanted to dominate the prey races as slaves and food and those who felt the continue ravages being waged on all prey mammals would drive all mammals to extinction. At that time, Zootopians thought they were the only living mammals in the world. The resulting 100 year war was a gruesome slaughter as technology advanced from paw to paw and tooth to tooth to World War One style trench warfare with machine guns, artillery and poison gases.\n\nPage 9\n\n Hundreds of species were wiped out. Only a few elderly simians remain of the ape races, all of them dying on the battlefields. Of avian birds only Seagulls remain. The carrier pigeons died en mass as battlefield messengers or suicide bombers with grenades strapped to their falling bodies and Eagles tore each other to shreds in deadly air combat. An armistice finally ended the blood letting and today in downtown Zootopia a statue of a fallen lion with a crying bunny soldier sobbing on its’ chest reminds all mammals of the bitter price paid by their fathers to establish their peaceful world. Every year on Memorial Day, all Zootopia stops at noon and every mammal cries and wales long and loud for their beloved dead.\n\n Great tracks of the North Country are cut off from all mammals by triple wire security fences because the lands inside are poisoned and festooned with un-exploded ordinance and un-collected mammal remains...including thousands of fired and unfired chemical weapons from the great Civil War.\n\n The North Country is where the “dummies” live, “dummies” being animals who have and will never reach the level of intelligence of modern Zootopians, they are just plain animals....deer are deer, rabbits and rabbits and so forth. The dummies exist for one reason....food.\n\n In zootopia, food for the predator species is provided in two ways. One is the processing of plant and insect proteins into a synthetic meat, even artificial blood using insects can be made to “slake” the unchangeable DNA and genetic behavior of Zootopia’s predictors, hence no need for detestable and criminal control devices like “shocking collars” which were banned in Zootopia twenty years before the “Savage Scare” in the movie. The other means for food is the free range hunting and killing of dummies. To allow the “Preds” an outlet for their inner killer desires.\n\nPage 10\n\n\n In the north country...Predators can go feral and naked to hunt as their fathers did with tooth and claw or with bows and rifles as the seasons are declared and managed by the Zootopian Department of Land Management and Conservation. Careful management ensures that the dummies are not wiped out and poaching / illegal hunting is severely punished as is sport hunting and trophy collection.\n\n But often and perversely both predators and prey from Zootopia come to the north country to...”relieve their oats” into a dummy and the resulting union produces....well let’s just say the end product can be terrifying. The DLM often has to send Predators to hunt down and kill the mistakes before they try to breed and multiply. Often a dangerous job to perform.\n\nThe Zootopian Transit system\n\n The Zootopian transit system is a model of convenience and efficiency based on the Japanese transit system with main arteries, secondaries and third ways of getting from point “A” to “B”. The main auto artery of Zootopia is the six lane loop way designated Highway 394 that runs through all of the outer districts and the Tri-Boroughs and feeds the secondary inter-urban four lane spill way designated Inter-Urban One that feeds Savanna, Sahara, Downtown and Rainforest. From the secondary, smaller third way two lane feeders designated “Dog legs” feed onto the streets of Savanna, Sahara, and Downtown.\n\n The ZMTS (Zootopia Metropolitan Transit System) or “Smitty” runs the subways, the street level transit services and the Nation/state wide speed train service to many accessible stations which keeps traffic congestion down to a manageable level. The Speed Trains service the Tri-Boroughs to Grand Mammal Station downtown and smaller trains run from Grand Mammal to all points within the city/state. From those points, trolly and bus services are fully available.\n\nPage 11\n\n\n There are no jet aircraft nor any powered aircraft in the Zootopia verse for commercial service save helium powered, engine driven Zeppelins of the Hindenburg class and smaller, which the mammals actually enjoy for their smooth and tranquil ease of travel. In Zootopia, gas powered vehicles and any mode of transport are tailor designed to fit every Mammal regardless of size. Special adaptations of roads and streets have been done to ensure that the smallest mammal can reach their destination in safety and accommodation. The entire network is monitored by cameras around the clock and has a dedicated quick response unit to assist mammals in case of vehicle break down or accident so the transit system suffers no long term difficulty or traffic jam.\n\nTHE ZOOTOPIAN MONITARY SYSTEM\n\n Zootopia’s currency is the “Zoo Buck” with coinage dubbed “The Fawn” and follows the American currency standard. One hundred Fawns equals a Zoo Buck and so forth. Zoo Buck currency is broken down as follows...\n\n1 Fawn = 1 penny\n\n10 Bulbs = ten cents\n\n4 points = 25 cents\n\n8 points = 50 cents\n\n10 points = 75 cents\n\n1 Zoo Buck = 1 Dollar\n\nZootopian paper currency is all Zoo bucks and is made in 1, 10, 20, 50, 100, 1000, 25,000, 50,000 and 100,000 denominations.\n\npage 12\n\n\n The Zootopian Credit system is the toughest in the world and is central regulated by the Credit Regulation and Security Bureau. It is illegal to give credit or charge interest to any mammal under 18 years of age. It is illegal to award credit to any mammal who can not show responsibility or capability to handle or pay credit. Credit companies are banned from advertising or using subversive coercive means to attract customers. Credit scores are factored for individual mammals after a complete examination of their living status including ALL monthly bills, status of employment, employment stability and capable amount to pay monthly credit bills. Mammals are given limited credit amounts based on the results of careful background examinations.\n\n It is illegal to pander credit to college students at Zootopia University as a national bank and fund trust has been set up under the tax system to see to a students every need so they may focus their efforts on study and not worry. Pandering credit to active college students is subject to a fine of 50,000 Zoo Bucks or ten years in the state prison. \n\n The Mammalian Income Tax Agency (Nicknamed “Big Mighty”) sets, regulates, and enforces the Zootopian tax code. Yearly taxes are based on reported income and Mammals have a waver of four months past the tax due date of April 15 to plead their case for a lower payment should they have to pay and not receive a refund. “Big Mighty” is largely run by Bunnies and you can imagine how many could work at “Big Mighty” so everything is processed in rapid time. Often over 90 percent of the time, “Big Mighty” will assist any troubled mammal with tax breaks and financial support services so not a single mammal fails to pay their share.\n\nPage 13\n\n\n Every seven years in Zootopia, the whole city celebrates a year of release called “The Schmeetah” where all debts and taxes are wiped off the books. The Schmeetah system helps to prevent national recessions by leveling out the financial system into a null restart zone. Big Mighty however is the big legal hammer against tax fraud, tax cheats, scam artists and other threats to the financial well being of Zootopia and her citizens. Two bureaus within “Big Mighty” carry out financial enforcement...the Department of Revenue and the Secret Service which goes after counter fitting and money laundering. \n\nPage 14\n \n \n THE BASIC BACKGROUND OF ZOOTOPIAN LAW\n\n “The law must be firm yet compassionate. Fair yet hard as a rock. Un-movable yet balanced in the dispensary of Justice and absolute in the protection of everyone’s rights.”\n\nLenny Arson\nFirst Mayor of Zootopia\n\n The laws that govern the city/state of Zootopia come from several sources...\n\n1. British Common Law\n2. The five books of the Biblical old testament aka “The laws of Moses”\n3. The handbook of criminal law from the university of Minnesota 2012\n4. The handbook of the General Principles of Civil Law, P.R.C. 2012 ***\n\n***Note...The Civil Laws of the People’s Republic of China are actually very sound even if the government doesn’t practice any of them itself....which is way too obvious.\n\n The system of law creation in Zootopia is as follows....\n\n1. The city counsel creates, debates, approves or disapproves laws.\n2. The Mayor signs laws into being or vetos them.\n3. The supreme court validates or throws out laws.\n\n The law is then enforced by the police. The citizens of Zootopia have the right to peacefully protest laws. The citizens of Zootopia have the right to monitor and question police behavior and authority. The citizens of Zootopia have the right to campaign for and call for a state wide vote to remove laws, over turn laws or create new binding laws which are agreed upon by the majority vote.\n\n Zootopia is governed by one over riding concern that is shared by every citizen....\n\nPage 15\n\n “Every mammal is precious to us from the smallest shrew to the greatest mammal in size and weight. To lose even a single mammal is a shared pain. Everything must be done to salvage the life of any mammal who has been wronged or has lost their way, only the most heinous of criminal acts should fall short of our shared compassion to bring the wayward back into the herd.”\n\n The best case in point to this statement is what happened to former assistant mayor Dawn Bellweather after the dreaded Savage Scare portrayed in the 2016 movie. Bellweather received a life sentence for her actions which almost brought Zootopia to the brink of conflict between Predators and Prey. She was thrown into prison still unrepentant at what she’d done.\n\n The last mammal Dawn Bellweather ever thought would care about her was the one mammal she plotted to use as a scape goat and later desired to have killed by what she thought was a “Savaged” fox. It was Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps who got Dawn Bellweather thrown in prison and now Judy had come to show compassion to a small prey mammal who believed she deserved none nor would get it.\n\n Over the course of a month, Dawn told Judy Hopps how she lived a life of misery since lamb-hood. Smaller than her fellow sheep, Dawn Bellweather suffered years of horrible abuse yet she tried her best to surmount it through hard work and dedication. Yet the abuses she suffered at the big paws of former Mayor Leo Lionheart was the back breaker. Having nowhere to turn to for justice...Bellweather carried out the Savage Scheme. At long last, years of torment caused Bellweather to break down with remorse and pleading for forgiveness. Judy Hopps took up her case and demanded Dawn Bellweather receive executive clemency.\n\nPage 16\n\n Over the next year after her release from prison and with Judy Hopp’s support, Dawn Bellweather took center stage before the Felima commission chaired by counsel female Erma Felina (An Albedo character) which indicted former Mayor Leo Lionheart on charges of bullying, abuse and harassment. The comission was instrumental in the formation of the Small Mammal Civil Rights Act signed into law by Mayor Caesar Leo (A White Lion) which established a system for small abused mammals to redress their grief and receive justice and compensation from acts of bullying and or discrimination. Mayor Leo also signed the Executive Order clearing Dawn Bellweather of any criminal charges. As of this writing...Miss Bellweather is the chief archivist and clerical organization chief for the Zootopia Police Department.\n\n When creating scenarios for game play. Applicable laws should be researched and written out in advance by the “Ring Master” (A play on the old Barnum and Bailey animal circus) to fit whatever scenario you play. For example....\n\n If the RPG just involves the daily duty of a traffic officer assigned to say Tundra Town...you might want to make a list of laws dealing with...\n\n1. Responsibility for snow removal from parking areas for residential and business districts.\n2. Traffic violations such as going to fast over snow covered roads.\n3. Not having chains on your vehicle when the signs around town clearly state that conditions warrant all vehicles be chained.\n4. No lights on the “OooBoo” sled when the law states there must be lights.\n\nPage 17\n\n\n If the RPG just involves a member of a Narco unit busting mammals for drug offenses...you might want to make a list of laws dealing with...\n\n1. The strength of the drug involved determines a mister-meaner or a felony charge.\n2. The amount of money seized in a bust determines a mister -meaner or a felony charge.\n3. Weapons taken during a bust is a felony charge.\n4. Distance of a bust from a school determines a mister -meaner or a felony charge.\n\n Some crimes in Zootopia can and may be punishable by death if the mammal is found guilty such as....\n\n1. Selling drugs to a minor mammal that results in severe debilitation or death.\n2. Murder, mammal-slaughter, pre-meditated mammal-slaughter.\n3. Rape of an underage mammal.\n4. Rape of a legal age mammal.\n5. Assault on a mammal that leads to severe debilitation or death.\n6. Driving while under the influence where you cause severe debilitation or death.\n7. Cub and Kitten abuse that results in severe debilitation or death.\n8. Murder of bystanders in the commission of a criminal act.\n9. Killing a city official or a police officer.\n10. pre-meditated negligence that results in multiple deaths.\n\n Once again....the Ring Master should carefully build up the game scenario to create the laws which will govern all parties in the RPG to be played out. There will be a greater explanation of how laws will be applied later in the manual.\n\nPage 18\n\n\nbackground on the zpd\n\n“We are the Mammals of the ZPD! We are blessed with the sacred trust of our fellow mammals to enforce the laws of our land with Justice, Compassion, Fidelity and Honesty for the good of the heard which we swear to protect with our courage when called, with our lives if need be. We are the officers of the ZPD! WE ARE ZOOTOPIA!”\n\nThe official sworn oath of every officer upon academy graduation.\n\n The Zootopia Police Department is a massive organization covering all the parts of the city/state from the busy streets of downtown to the waterways and oceans in and surrounding Zootopia. There are mammals big and small wearing the blue uniform around the clock from the Wolf patrolling Savanna Central on his night shift to the rows of bunnies working the dispatch call center to the tabby cat working the homicide division and the otter making an ocean drug bust off the coast of Sahara Square. The ZPD never sleeps.\n\n The main headquarters of the department is the first precinct “first prink” or “first prinky” in the city center. Chief Maxwell Bogo who is a huge and imposing African Cape Buffalo is the First Precinct Chief. Each part of Zootopia has a Chief or a Sheriff in charge of officers and or deputies in their respective precincts.

INTRODUCTION

‭       Welcome to Zootopia, a land populated by anthropomorphic mammals that was featured in the popular 2016 Disney movie “Zootopia”. The film followed a female named Judy Hopps (A bunny) and her street wise side kick  Nick Wilde (An English red fox) as they tracked down the cause of an affliction that turned mild mannered predators back to their ancient predatory behaviors. The “Savage Scare” as the event became known in Zootopian history endangered the peace and stability of the thriving populace where predatory animals live in peace with their prey counter parts. In many ways...the film Zootopia was a mirror reflection of the times it was designed to portray. For it’s time, Zootopia was the most successful Disney animated movie until the first Frozen movie surpassed it in box office gross. The film is especially popular with world wide furry culture.

‭      The movie centers around Judy as a member of the city state’s police force known as the “ZPD” and as with any policing organization, the ZPD is tasked with maintaining the public order and universal peace. This attempt at creating a Zootopia based role playing game centers on the ZPD, who enforce the laws of the City/State and maintain its peace, and those elements of criminal activity that exist in Zootopia as they would in any large metropolis. The players of the RPG have the opportunity to play both sides of the coin as either a Peace Officer or any level of criminals from petty thugs to syndicate crime bosses.

‭page 2

What makes up Zootopia

       The city/state of Zootopia is made up of districts and Burroughs which are “tailor made” to support the vast array of diverse mammals from the small Arctic shrew to the great Elephants. Every mammal has the choice to live in sections designed to support their species and respect their individual need for comfort and health. Many parts of Zootopia are climate controlled by mechanical means such as Tundra Town (where it always snows) and Sahara Square (Which is kept in a dry, slightly rainy environment such as in Egypt). A visitor would also notice that each part of Zootopia reflects architecture suitable for different animals or that their living arrangement meets their individual species behavior and way of life. Otters have houses under water, Beaver houses resemble their traditional river dams and rabbits live in gigantic muli-story homes that jut from the hills in Bunny Borough. Of course Bunnies need huge houses because they (beep) like crazy! “They’re good at multiplication.” as Judy Hopps will tell you. Judy comes from a family of over 300 rabbits...In ONE house!

The individual sections of Zootopia are....

CITY CENTER

        The city center is the busy and bustling financial and economic heart of Zootopia where most of your commerce and industry are. This is where you have the true melting pot of the city/state where predators and prey live and work together. City Center is not climate controled though it can have periods of rain, sun, snow or storms depending on the general season. The City Center is built on a sloping conical hill which is dominated by the Tamamo Tower at the very top. Tamamo Tower is the city’s financial management center which holds the Zootopian stock exchange, many banking and investment firms and legal practices and the national treasury department which produces and distributes currency.


Page 3

          City Center is also the home of the Zootopia Police Department Central Management Division or the “CMD”. CMD therefore is the First Precinct of the Department or “First Prinky” as it’s pet name goes. CMD coordinates and manages the mammal power for all policing in the city/state, it is also the most busy Precinct in the ZPD as there’s never a dull moment in the downtown district between ticketing parking violators and apprehending mammals for such silly offenses as “Tail tip nip assault” or worse, selling “smack” to teenagers outside of the public schools. “Smack” in Zootopia is a super high grade form of illegal cat nip. Nothing costs a school more than an out of control tiger high on “smack” trashing a classroom because some joker though it funny to tease him with a laser pen.

Tundra Town

          Tundra Town is always kept at arctic conditions year round by the way of giant air conditioners and snow machines that are set atop the large concrete wall (The climate wall) that rings Tundra Town from the Northern tip where Tundra Town meets the Meadowlands and down and around to the Eastern tip by the Polar Strait. This is where a majority of your polar and cold weather mammals like to live such as polar bears, arctic shrew, penguins and seals. There are few cars driven around Tundra Town because of the constant snow and ice so many mammals get around by skating, skiing, motor sleds or by “Oooboo” the husky and horse sled driver service.

          Tundra town’s main commercial industry is fishing and seafood. It is also home to the city/states major shipyard and iron works facility “GMCY” or General Mariner Commissioning Yards which is owned currently by Mister Vicenzo Lanzoni aka “Mister Big” the arctic Shew crime boss from the movie. GCY supplies the Zootopian Navy with its’ fleet of destroyers and underwater remote operation attack submarines as well as commercial boats and ships of all classes and types.

Page 4

         Tundra Town seems to always be in a never-ending “Christmas time” holiday feel. It really is beautiful in white and the inhabitants are always inviting and friendly. You will never leave Tundra Town empty handed because someone’s always passing out a free coco mug or hand made scarf and hat. Policing of course requires special vehicles for getting around and the traffic division here is busy because as Chief Bogo usually says...”Mammals don’t drive well in an inch of snow.” A fender bender between a pig from Sahara Square and a Malamut Oooboo usually ends up a pretty nasty incident report.

SAHARA SQUARE

       Sahara Square is uniquely suited for desert dwelling Mammals like Egyptian Camels, desert foxes, desert rats and other Middle East and American Southwest, Central and South American mammals. It has a blended architecture from all these regions mixed with more modern buildings. Sahara Square is a tourist destination with its’ long coast line, sandy beach fronts and the huge Palm Desert Hotel which towers over the square. On the beach fronts you’ll find casinos, night clubs, outdoor food and garden courts and a variety of restaurants and relaxation centers where mammals can “strip” away all their cares, go au natural and “ferry out” meaning they can go feral and play naked.

        The most popular sport in Zootopia is soccer which is played in Vornoy Stadium on Sahara’s Southwest side. Soccer games of course always spike up incidents for the ZPD to handle like rowdy hooligans causing fights in bars or fans stampeding through the streets causing all kinds of crazy distress. The most prevelent crimes that occur in Sahara are pick pockets, car break ins, numbers rackets, scams, prostitution and “HG” (High Grade Cat Nip) pushing.

Page 5

       Sahara Square is also home to one of two big Fleet Marine bases in Zootopia, the Amphibious Warfare school and the fleet carborundum where all the Marine’s vehicles are built, maintained and repaired. There is also the major Naval base at Sandy Cove where the fleet destroyers and Amphibious warfare fleets are parked and maintained.

SAVANNA CENTRAL

       Savanna Central is where all the central and south Africana, Australian and South Pacific and Euro-Asian/Indian mammals live. It is a diverse landscape with wide open African like plains, Indian like jungles and Australian outback flora and fauna. Savanna is the least worrisome spot in terms of crime because....who will even dare to get testy with a lion? Yet crime does happen and for a time the biggest crime boss in Savanna is or was the notorious African Honey Badger, James Whitey Badger, a ruthless and dangerous crime lord who made life in Savanna hell until or until he gets or got taken down by the ZPD.

      Savanna is also home to the largest Fleet Marine Force training and test center, MCB Quanaco with the attached recruit training depot MCRD Savanna. The Marines normally behave....that is until they get a little too much juice which then they get board and then they get destructive. Not a weekend goes by where a few drunk Tiger or Wolf Marines end up in the “Savanna Slammah” to suffer out their hang overs.

RAIN FOREST

       Rain Forest District is considered by many in the ZPD to be “choice” duty because there’s almost zero crime and there’s no cars. Auto vehicles are banned from Rain Forest and Mammals get around by means of elevated cable bridges, bikes, walking, cable runs or on secluded by-ways they can strip naked and go feral...running, flying and jumping their way to and from the parking garages around the perimeter of the forest preserve. The ZMTA or “Zipper” train of the Zootopian Mass Transit Authority does service throughout rain forest from the central liner to small electric powered trollies.

page 6

      Most often, ZPD officers who live in rain forest are posted here and they have to be physically built to handle the patrol responsibilities and often the requirements as first responders and EMT technicians. While crime is low, accidents from mis-steps, climbing and being foolish are not. Often ZPD officers must rappel around trees, cliffs or be lowered by helicopter to hard to reach places to assist injured mammals. The usually assigned officers to rain forest are wolves and tigers.

       Rain forest is populated by your jungle-ade, Everglade, deep forest and water dwelling mammals like Panda, Seals, otters, beavers, Racoon Dogs (Tanuki), wolves and marsupials like Kowala. It is a quiet and peaceful section of Zootopia which makes being posted as a police officer more boring and slow but you can’t beat the beauty of the place and you still get paid good money for your hours of sleeping.

The Meadow Lands

        The Meadow Lands are for your equine grazer species like deer, sheep, rams, Moose, Elk and other long green grass lovers. This is the other peaceful place in Zootopia with a low crime rate and high boredom rate for posted officers. Meadow Lands has a sheriff and a few deputies because of its small size and the relative ease of getting to where trouble might creep up.

         Meadow Lands is also the home of the Zootopian Navy’s attack submarine drone fleet based out of Wooly Rock Naval Base. The Sailors there cause very little trouble save the occasional speeding infraction and a few incidents with intoxication. Otherwise, it’s another well paid sleep fest for posted officers.

Page 7

The Tri Burroughs

Bunny- podunk - Deerbrook

         The Tri-Burroughs are a mix of cultural styles such as American small town and farm country, Scottish and Irish culture, English country side culture and peaceful European countryside living. The Burroughs are populated by rodent species, equines and vulpines with a few Ursaloids (bear) here and there. All the Burroughs have sheriffs with deputies and local town or village judges and magistrates. Crime is low for the most part and officers respond and handle disputes over everything from property line infractions and complaints to ownership of live stock and other small town complaints. The biggest crime in the “Tri’s” is moonshine and boot legging as high grade booze is deemed too dangerous for mammals to consume. Boot legging is a young mammal’s game because they “get off” on the excitement of teasing “Johny Law’s tailbone” and dodging the “Reg-teeth” from the Bureau of Spirits and vices which regulates “sin taxes” on luxury ingesticants.

Little Rodentia

       Ah....Little Rodentia, the little Italy of Zootopia. Here is where all the “little ones” live in relative safety with a very high iron fence separating them from the feet and hooves of the larger mammals. Until recently, Little Rodentia had no police precinct and thus crime flourished because it was too dangerous to allow huge police officers to trample their way around the miniature city. Chief Judy Wilde put a stop to that by creating Rodentia’s tough “Fort Bronco” Precinct led by it’s tough Chief, Justin Nimh (The rat Captain of the Guards Justin from Secret of Nimh) Fort Bronco is exclusively rodent stocked with Mice and Rats as police officers. Little Rodentia has both petty and organized crime from pick pockets to crime bosses running drugs ,racket games and prostitution. Occasionally Fort Bronco has to deal with some dumb “biggie” jumping the perimeter fence to escape the larger brothers of the blue brigade and if the fool thought he wouldn’t have to deal with “small fry” cops. He’s going to get a thrashing he wasn’t prepared for.

Zootopia correctional facility at shwartzwald

     “The big dawg collar”....”The electric fence”....”The steer poker” ZCF has a hundred names and they fit this prison where incorant miscreants are sent to be “spaded” or “neutered”. It’s as tuff as any federal prison and about as worse even though it’s never over-crowded. Officers assigned here have to watch their tails with some of the prison’s very nasty residents. Zootopia has a punishment to fit the crime scale and executions are often done by “euthin drugs” or by methods which equal the brutality and savagery of the offense committed. However...every mammal is precious in Zootopian society so reform and justice is up front. Even the criminal’s past is considered to see if they in turn deserve justice for wrongs which may have steered them to acts of crime, a program instituted by Judy Hopps after she fought to get Dawn Bellweather clemency and justice for the years of abuse she suffered as a small mammal where her only recourse left was a criminal act.

THE NORTH COUNTRY

     Past Tundra Town and over the Julius Bridge that spans the great Roana River that runs West to East, lies the sparsely inhabited North Country of Zootopia. The North Country is a great mountainous and forested range that was once the home of the Tusker Prey Confederation during Zootopia’s middle age. The Tusker Confederation was destroyed by the greatest power of the time, Wolfen Rome or the Lupinian Roman Empire.

       When Lupinian Rome collapsed, All of Zootopia fell into a bloody one hundred year holocaust called the Great Predatorial Civil War as the Predator species split between those who wanted to dominate the prey races as slaves and food and those who felt the continue ravages being waged on all prey mammals would drive all mammals to extinction. At that time, Zootopians thought they were the only living mammals in the world. The resulting 100 year war was a gruesome slaughter as technology advanced from paw to paw and tooth to tooth to World War One style trench warfare with machine guns, artillery and poison gases.

Page 9

       Hundreds of species were wiped out. Only a few elderly simians remain of the ape races, all of them dying on the battlefields. Of avian birds only Seagulls remain. The carrier pigeons died en mass as battlefield messengers or suicide bombers with grenades strapped to their falling bodies and Eagles tore each other to shreds in deadly air combat. An armistice finally ended the blood letting and today in downtown Zootopia a statue of a fallen lion with a crying bunny soldier sobbing on its’ chest reminds all mammals of the bitter price paid by their fathers to establish their peaceful world. Every year on Memorial Day, all Zootopia stops at noon and every mammal cries and wales long and loud for their beloved dead.

      Great tracks of the North Country are cut off from all mammals by triple wire security fences because the lands inside are poisoned and festooned with un-exploded ordinance and un-collected mammal remains...including thousands of fired and unfired chemical weapons from the great Civil War.

       The North Country is where the “dummies” live, “dummies” being animals who have and will never reach the level of intelligence of modern Zootopians, they are just plain animals....deer are deer, rabbits and rabbits and so forth. The dummies exist for one reason....food.

       In zootopia, food for the predator species is provided in two ways. One is the processing of plant and insect proteins into a synthetic meat, even artificial blood using insects can be made to “slake” the unchangeable DNA and genetic behavior of Zootopia’s predictors, hence no need for detestable and criminal control devices like “shocking collars” which were banned in Zootopia twenty years before the “Savage Scare” in the movie. The other means for food is the free range hunting and killing of dummies. To allow the “Preds” an outlet for their inner killer desires.

Page 10


       In the north country...Predators can go feral and naked to hunt as their fathers did with tooth and claw or with bows and rifles as the seasons are declared and managed by the Zootopian Department of Land Management and Conservation. Careful management ensures that the dummies are not wiped out and poaching / illegal hunting is severely punished as is sport hunting and trophy collection.

        But often and perversely both predators and prey from Zootopia come to the north country to...”relieve their oats” into a dummy and the resulting union produces....well let’s just say the end product can be terrifying. The DLM often has to send Predators to hunt down and kill the mistakes before they try to breed and multiply. Often a dangerous job to perform.

The Zootopian Transit system

       The Zootopian transit system is a model of convenience and efficiency based on the Japanese transit system with main arteries, secondaries and third ways of getting from point “A” to “B”. The main auto artery of Zootopia is the six lane loop way designated Highway 394 that runs through all of the outer districts and the Tri-Boroughs and feeds the secondary inter-urban four lane spill way designated Inter-Urban One that feeds Savanna, Sahara, Downtown and Rainforest. From the secondary, smaller third way two lane feeders designated “Dog legs” feed onto the streets of Savanna, Sahara, and Downtown.

        The ZMTS (Zootopia Metropolitan Transit System) or “Smitty” runs the subways, the street level transit services and the Nation/state wide speed train service to many accessible stations which keeps traffic congestion down to a manageable level. The Speed Trains service the Tri-Boroughs to Grand Mammal Station downtown and smaller trains run from Grand Mammal to all points within the city/state. From those points, trolly and bus services are fully available.

Page 11


       There are no jet aircraft nor any powered aircraft in the Zootopia verse for commercial service save helium powered, engine driven Zeppelins of the Hindenburg class and smaller, which the mammals actually enjoy for their smooth and tranquil ease of travel. In Zootopia, gas powered vehicles and any mode of transport are tailor designed to fit every Mammal regardless of size. Special adaptations of roads and streets have been done to ensure that the smallest mammal can reach their destination in safety and accommodation. The entire network is monitored by cameras around the clock and has a dedicated quick response unit to assist mammals in case of vehicle break down or accident so the transit system suffers no long term difficulty or traffic jam.

THE ZOOTOPIAN MONITARY SYSTEM

       Zootopia’s currency is the “Zoo Buck” with coinage dubbed “The Fawn” and follows the American currency standard. One hundred Fawns equals a Zoo Buck and so forth. Zoo Buck currency is broken down as follows...

1 Fawn = 1 penny

10 Bulbs = ten cents

4 points = 25 cents

8 points = 50 cents

10 points = 75 cents

1 Zoo Buck = 1 Dollar

Zootopian paper currency is all Zoo bucks and is made in 1, 10, 20, 50, 100, 1000, 25,000, 50,000 and 100,000 denominations.

page 12


      The Zootopian Credit system is the toughest in the world and is central regulated by the Credit Regulation and Security Bureau. It is illegal to give credit or charge interest to any mammal under 18 years of age. It is illegal to award credit to any mammal who can not show responsibility or capability to handle or pay credit. Credit companies are banned from advertising or using subversive coercive means to attract customers. Credit scores are factored for individual mammals after a complete examination of their living status including ALL monthly bills, status of employment, employment stability and capable amount to pay monthly credit bills. Mammals are given limited credit amounts based on the results of careful background examinations.

       It is illegal to pander credit to college students at Zootopia University as a national bank and fund trust has been set up under the tax system to see to a students every need so they may focus their efforts on study and not worry. Pandering credit to active college students is subject to a fine of 50,000 Zoo Bucks or ten years in the state prison.

      The Mammalian Income Tax Agency (Nicknamed “Big Mighty”) sets, regulates, and enforces the Zootopian tax code. Yearly taxes are based on reported income and Mammals have a waver of four months past the tax due date of April 15 to plead their case for a lower payment should they have to pay and not receive a refund. “Big Mighty” is largely run by Bunnies and you can imagine how many could work at “Big Mighty” so everything is processed in rapid time. Often over 90 percent of the time, “Big Mighty” will assist any troubled mammal with tax breaks and financial support services so not a single mammal fails to pay their share.

Page 13


         Every seven years in Zootopia, the whole city celebrates a year of release called “The Schmeetah” where all debts and taxes are wiped off the books. The Schmeetah system helps to prevent national recessions by leveling out the financial system into a null restart zone. Big Mighty however is the big legal hammer against tax fraud, tax cheats, scam artists and other threats to the financial well being of Zootopia and her citizens. Two bureaus within “Big Mighty” carry out financial enforcement...the Department of Revenue and the Secret Service which goes after counter fitting and money laundering.

   THE BASIC BACKGROUND OF ZOOTOPIAN LAW

     “The law must be firm yet compassionate. Fair yet hard as a rock. Un-movable yet balanced in the dispensary of Justice and absolute in the protection of everyone’s rights.”

Lenny Arson
First Mayor of Zootopia

         The laws that govern the city/state of Zootopia come from several sources...

1. British Common Law
2. The five books of the Biblical old testament aka “The laws of Moses”
3. The handbook of criminal law from the university of Minnesota 2012
4. The handbook of the General Principles of Civil Law, P.R.C. 2012 ***

***Note...The Civil Laws of the People’s Republic of China are actually very sound even if the government doesn’t practice any of them itself....which is way too obvious.

    The system of law creation in Zootopia is as follows....

1. The city counsel creates, debates, approves or disapproves laws.
2. The Mayor signs laws into being or vetos them.
3. The supreme court validates or throws out laws.

    The law is then enforced by the police. The citizens of Zootopia have the right to peacefully protest laws. The citizens of Zootopia have the right to monitor and question police behavior and authority. The citizens of Zootopia have the right to campaign for and call for a state wide vote to remove laws, over turn laws or create new binding laws which are agreed upon by the majority vote.

     Zootopia is governed by one over riding concern that is shared by every citizen....

Page 15

      “Every mammal is precious to us from the smallest shrew to the greatest mammal in size and weight. To lose even a single mammal is a shared pain. Everything must be done to salvage the life of any mammal who has been wronged or has lost their way, only the most heinous of criminal acts should fall short of our shared compassion to bring the wayward back into the herd.”

       The best case in point to this statement is what happened to former assistant mayor Dawn Bellweather after the dreaded Savage Scare portrayed in the 2016 movie. Bellweather received a life sentence for her actions which almost brought Zootopia to the brink of conflict between Predators and Prey. She was thrown into prison still unrepentant at what she’d done.

         The last mammal Dawn Bellweather ever thought would care about her was the one mammal she plotted to use as a scape goat and later desired to have killed by what she thought was a “Savaged” fox. It was Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps who got Dawn Bellweather thrown in prison and now Judy had come to show compassion to a small prey mammal who believed she deserved none nor would get it.

        Over the course of a month, Dawn told Judy Hopps how she lived a life of misery since lamb-hood. Smaller than her fellow sheep, Dawn Bellweather suffered years of horrible abuse yet she tried her best to surmount it through hard work and dedication. Yet the abuses she suffered at the big paws of former Mayor Leo Lionheart was the back breaker. Having nowhere to turn to for justice...Bellweather carried out the Savage Scheme. At long last, years of torment caused Bellweather to break down with remorse and pleading for forgiveness. Judy Hopps took up her case and demanded Dawn Bellweather receive executive clemency.

Page 16

         Over the next year after her release from prison and with Judy Hopp’s support, Dawn Bellweather took center stage before the Felima commission chaired by counsel female Erma Felina (An Albedo character) which indicted former Mayor Leo Lionheart on charges of bullying, abuse and harassment. The comission was instrumental in the formation of the Small Mammal Civil Rights Act signed into law by Mayor Caesar Leo (A White Lion) which established a system for small abused mammals to redress their grief and receive justice and compensation from acts of bullying and or discrimination. Mayor Leo also signed the Executive Order clearing Dawn Bellweather of any criminal charges. As of this writing...Miss Bellweather is the chief archivist and clerical organization chief for the Zootopia Police Department.

       When creating scenarios for game play. Applicable laws should be researched and written out in advance by the “Ring Master” (A play on the old Barnum and Bailey animal circus) to fit whatever scenario you play. For example....

       If the RPG just involves the daily duty of a traffic officer assigned to say Tundra Town...you might want to make a list of laws dealing with...

1. Responsibility for snow removal from parking areas for residential and business districts.
2. Traffic violations such as going to fast over snow covered roads.
3. Not having chains on your vehicle when the signs around town clearly state that conditions warrant all vehicles be chained.
4. No lights on the “OooBoo” sled when the law states there must be lights.

Page 17


        If the RPG just involves a member of a Narco unit busting mammals for drug offenses...you might want to make a list of laws dealing with...

1. The strength of the drug involved determines a mister-meaner or a felony charge.
2. The amount of money seized in a bust determines a mister -meaner or a felony charge.
3. Weapons taken during a bust is a felony charge.
4. Distance of a bust from a school determines a mister -meaner or a felony charge.

        Some crimes in Zootopia can and may be punishable by death if the mammal is found guilty such as....

1. Selling drugs to a minor mammal that results in severe debilitation or death.
2. Murder, mammal-slaughter, pre-meditated mammal-slaughter.
3. Rape of an underage mammal.
4. Rape of a legal age mammal.
5. Assault on a mammal that leads to severe debilitation or death.
6. Driving while under the influence where you cause severe debilitation or death.
7. Cub and Kitten abuse that results in severe debilitation or death.
8. Murder of bystanders in the commission of a criminal act.
9. Killing a city official or a police officer.
10. pre-meditated negligence that results in multiple deaths.

 Once again....the Ring Master should carefully build up the game scenario to create the laws which will govern all parties in the RPG to be played out. There will be a greater explanation of how laws will be applied later in the manual.

background on the zpd

“We are the Mammals of the ZPD! We are blessed with the sacred trust of our fellow mammals to enforce the laws of our land with Justice, Compassion, Fidelity and Honesty for the good of the heard which we swear to protect with our courage when called, with our lives if need be. We are the officers of the ZPD! WE ARE ZOOTOPIA!”

The official sworn oath of every officer upon academy graduation.

       The Zootopia Police Department is a massive organization covering all the parts of the city/state from the busy streets of downtown to the waterways and oceans in and surrounding Zootopia. There are mammals big and small wearing the blue uniform around the clock from the Wolf patrolling Savanna Central on his night shift to the rows of bunnies working the dispatch call center to the tabby cat working the homicide division and the otter making an ocean drug bust off the coast of Sahara Square. The ZPD never sleeps.

        The main headquarters of the department is the first precinct “first prink” or “first prinky” in the city center. Chief Maxwell Bogo who is a huge and imposing African Cape Buffalo is the First Precinct Chief. Each part of Zootopia has a Chief or a Sheriff in charge of officers and or deputies in their respective precincts. It’s the job of the First Precinct to partial officers out to the other precincts depending on their requirements and needs at the time.

        The larger Precincts in Zootopia follow the basic structure of any major American city police unit....

1, The Chief
2. The Assistant Chief
3. The Criminal Investigation Division
4. The Homicide Division
5. The Narco Division
6. The Patrol Division which includes traffic enforcement.

Page 19

         Smaller precincts in places like the Tri-Burroughs and Meadow Lands follow the basic small town structure of policing....

1. The Sheriff
2. The Deputy Sheriff
3. Deputies
4. Crimes Inspection Unit

        The ZPD has an afloat Coast Guard and law enforcement unit of fast patrol boats known as the Sea Knights. A typical Sea Knight patrol boat consists of....

1. The captain
2. The healms-mammal
3. The bow gunner
4. Two California Sea Lions
5. Two Otters
