Ask Dorian; Our Role with the ZPD

 

Dorian: Technically yes, as both districts are considered part of Zootopia, that makes us part of the same big ol' ZPD family. However, obviously there are some differences in the laws per district. Fer instance, strict water regulation laws ain't gonna be as necessary in “The Rainforest District” compared to “Sahara Square”, And the same would go fer ice construction regulations in “Tundra Town” compared to “Savanna Central”. One big difference between us and the inner city ZPD is our laxer live firearm ownership laws. While ownin' any sorta live munition weapon in the city is illegal unless yer with the ZPD or the Reserve, Out here y'all can get a permit fer a wide variety of guns and ammo. O'course, it's a necessity out here. The fact that were so rural means that us officers can't always be out to someone's property in a blink, so the need to be able to fend fer yerself is more pressin'. There's also wildlife to deal with, some of which can be more dangerous than others.

Also, we don't get to work with the inner-city branches all to often. As I said before, The North Meadowlands is purty rural, same fer Alpine Glade. Both Districts are also much larger than the others, so much so that it makes callin' Zootopia a 'city-state' much more accurate than just refferin' to it as a mega-city. Essentially we only work with the inner city when it's a massive case, er' a suspect is believed to have made a run out to our area in an effort to use the ruralness of the place to better hide out. Last time we had any big co-operative cases with the rest of the districts was with the “Last Night” Case. O' course, that should make sense to y'all seein' as how there were co-conspirators hidin' in almost every district.
