Zootopia 2 is now in theaters and it's a total blast! Not only are Judy and Nick back but the movie is packed with easter eggs, callbacks, and voice cameos from not just Disney Animation but Pixar, Star Wars, and beyond. From The Shining to Ratatouille, hidden Mickey, The Mandalorian, and more, here are all the Zootopia 2 Easter eggs you may have missed.

Spoilers ahead if you haven't see Zootopia 2. Do you spot any we didn't? Let us know! Thanks for the comments! 

Zootopia 2 Easter Eggs

Zootopia 2 Easter Eggs

John Leguizamo plays the Anteater working at the shipping docks. Not only is he Bruno in Encanto, but he also voices Sid the Sloth in Ice Age which is a relative of the anteater. 

What does the fox say? – Apparently that joke can still be funny!

In the IT department at the police station, there is a sign that says Crush The Bugs in the same front as A Bug's Life. There is also a tiny Mickey Mouse figure sitting on the desk.

When Captain Hogbottom nails a perp, her partner, Truffler tells her, “That'll do, pig. That'll do.” That's a line from Babe. 

Nick's apartment number is 23. Disney was founded in 1923. 

When Nick is at home, he is looking for something to watch on Disney+. There are categories like Pigsar (Pixar), Star Roars (Star Wars), Rat Geo (National Geographic), and ELKS (ESPN).

Bob Iger makes a cameo as Bob Tiger.

He scrolls through options like here's the musical Ham-ilton, Die Hero: Die Herder, Futurllama, Piggity Falls, PLATYPUS, and The Neighsayer 2, starring the mayor Brian Winddancer, who looks like he's mimicking Chuck Norris' cover of Invasion U.S.A. Plus Ramdor and the Pandalorian and Growlgu, starring Dingo Djarin.

Zootopia 2 Easter Eggs Ratatouille

When Nick and Judy are running through the kitchen, the Lion Chef loses his hat and it's revealed there is a rat hiding in there helping him. This is obviously a Ratatouille reference. What's funnier is the animal that says I knew it is a Raccoon which references the Raccacoonie from Everything Everywhere All At Once.

The frying pan Nick uses to hit Gary is not only a visual reference to Tangled but Jared Bush shared they used the same sound as well. 

In Marsh Market there are a ton of callbacks hiding in plain sight: Ariel's Grotto, Hook's Bait and Tackle, and Mr Toad's.

There is also a sign that says Fish Are Food. In Finding Nemo, the sharks' pledge is “Fish are friends, NOT food.”

When the Hippos are chasing them, fruit rolls by them at the dock and they start eating like Hungry, Hungry Hippos. 

Then there is their Walrus ride through the swamp. When he thinks it's their anniversary, the Walrus turns on lights to make the boat festive while “Bella Notte,” from Lady and the Tramp plays.

Jesus (Danny Trejo) looks similar to Rango.

Weaselton is back at with his DVDs. This time he has the live action Wrangled and The Pandalorian. 

Co-directors Bryon Howard and Jared Bush voice the mountain goats Jürgen Ziegenkäse and Berthold Hufschmerz. 

Silence of the Lambs

When they are running through the Zootopia prison a light turns on revealing Bellweather (Jenny Slate) in her prison jumpsuit. She's in a custom, single-occupant cell with bulletproof glass.This is recreation of the infamous Hannibal Lector cell scene in Silence of the Lambs.

Burning Mammal Festival instead of Burning Man.

There is a Polar Bear drinking a cola, this is a reference to the iconic Coca-cola bear advertisements during the holidays.

The Shining 

As Judy and Nick try to escape Pawbert, they run into a snowy hedge maze that is identical to the labyrinth outside The Overlook Hotel in The Shining. During the chase scene, Pawbert hunches over, stalking them looking deranged like Jack Torrance does after the evil of the Overlook took him over. They even cued the music from The Shining for good measure.

Zootopia 2 Post Credit Scene

There is a special Zootopia 2 post credit scene that features Judy yelling through the wall to her neighbors. After they tell each other to shut up, she leaves the room. A feather lands on the window sill where her mended carrot recorder pen is sitting. The only mention of birds in Zootopia before was during the first film when Shakira's Gazelle sings about them in the song Try Everything.
