### **Official Biography**

Judy Hopps is the first bunny ever to join Zootopia's police department. Determined to prove herself, Judy jumps at the chance to crack a case, even if it means teaming up with a con artist fox.

## ***Zootopia***

During the when he isn't looking, Judy snatches back her
friend's ticket. Gideon yells at Judy that she will be nothing more than a dumb
bunny before he and Travis walk away.  Her
friends come to help her up. Judy quickly hands over their tickets. One of her
friends, Sharla, tells Judy that Gideon doesn't know what he is talking about.
However, Judy says that he was right about one thing. Putting on her cop hat
defiantly, Judy agrees with Gideon: she doesn't know when to quit.

Fifteen years later, Judy, who had been accepted into Zootopia Police Academy, is
standing with her fellow officers and being instructed by a polar bear
instructor.
