Why do you think we never saw any primates in Zootopia?

Killed by the great plague.

They were racist.
Austin Fisher
Because zootopia is actually a zoo and the owners are the advanced human race.

This just became The Truman Show.
Logan King
Too close to humans was the official excuse.
Unofficially I'm sure it was to avoid some racial comparisons.

Since we saw cavemen animals in the museum at the end of the movie, I guess primates never evolved in this universe. A better question is where are all the Birds and Reptiles? Do they have their own societies, with Lizards being savages and Birds being isolationists? What about aquatic mammals like Whales and Dolphins, do they have a Atlantis type society going on? So many questions that the sequel needs to answer.

>in the next zootopia movie the humans are back.
humans are the final enemy, the end of civilization
Isaac Rodriguez
They moved to Beastars.

Fish are clarified to be not-evolved. They missed the boat and are proper food. Insects, too.
Lucas Gomez
I believe the directors said they wanted to have as few connections to humans as possible. Primates would be just a step away from humans visually.
Josiah Rodriguez
WallE crossover?
Easton Butler
And the lesser apes are the highest noble working directly under humans. I like this.
Benjamin Garcia
Weird I remember there were gorillas somewhere.
Ryan Smith
I know, they had a fish market in the tundra section of Zootopia. But what about Aquatic Mammals like Whales, Dolphins and Seals? They are technically mammals since they give birth to live young, so do they have there own Atlantis thing going on?

Plot twist:
Animals in Zootopia are descendants of furries created by men

This is explained in the making of. The movie had primates, but braindead test audiences made assumptions that the primate characters were the smartest and related to them the most, so they removed them.
James Jackson
If it swims it's food. Doesn't matter if it's sentient or not.

Kemono friends pisses me because it ruined my searches for actual kemono

Animals are sentient. The term you're looking for is sapient.
Carter Torres
What is the difference?
Nolan Lopez
In the making of, it was explained that they were removed because they looked too much like humans.
Grayson Parker
Being sentient means being capable of experiencing things and processing them in your brain to have subjective experience, like most animals but not plants. Most anons are sentient except for bots.
Sapience means having the ability to have logical thoughts and conclusions, like humans and arguably a few other animals but not most animals who can learn but cannot reason. Some anons are sapient but most is just mindlessly reacting and repeating buzzwords. Does that explain it clearly enough?
Jason Perez
"Self-aware" versus "capable of abstract thought." Very few animals outside of humans manage the latter.
Luis Hernandez
Being self aware is an abstract thought. A cat isn't self aware, but it's aware of its surroundings to a degree and capable of reacting and learning in complex ways. But if you give it a mirror is going to ignore or try to fight it because it has no concept of self. Humans and I think some monkeys and elephants can recognise themselves in the mirror so are self aware.
Cameron Rogers
Yes.
Hudson Myers
How?
