- “Pawpsicles! Get your pawpsicles!”
- ―Nick Wilde
Pawpsicles are cherry-flavored ice pops made by Nick Wilde and Finnick in Zootopia. Their name is a portmanteau of the words "popsicle" and "paw".
Description
Pawpsicles are small, frozen treats shaped roughly like paws. They are about the size of a dog's paw, and are planted on popsicle sticks and frozen before being ready to sell. One Jumbo-pop makes over 90 pawpsicles, as seen in the film.[1]
Role in the Film
After seeing Finnick for a second time in Sahara Square, Judy Hopps witnesses him and Nick melting the Jumbo-pop she helped them get earlier and collecting its juices, prompting her to follow them around Zootopia to see what they are up to.
Nick and Finnick freezing their pawpsicles
In Tundratown, Nick and Finnick pour the juices into molds made by Finnick's feet stepping in the snow and place a popsicle stick in each one.
Having their pawpsicles frozen and finished, they go to the Lemming Brothers Bank and sell them to a group of lemming businessmen.
Nick selling his pawpsicles
After the lemmings eat their pawpsicles and discard their pawpsicle sticks, Nick and Finnick sell the sticks as lumber to a mouse construction crew in Little Rodentia.
Realizing she has been tricked, she later confronts Nick after he splits his profits with Finnick, who leaves in his van. Nick finishes a pawpsicle and tricks Judy into looking away, so he can escape.
Later, while looking at Emmitt Otterton's case file, Judy sees a picture of him with a pawpsicle, forcing her to question Nick about the otter's disappearance.
At the end of the film, Nick is seen eating a pawpsicle, implying that they are still regularly being made, and he gets it stuck to his face when Judy slams the brakes in their car.
Role in Literature
