I think I was eight...or maybe nine, and all I wanted to do was join the Junior Ranger Scouts. So, my mom scraped together enough money to buy me a brand new uniform because by God I was gonna fit in, even if I was the only predator in the troop - the only fox.
―Nick Wilde recalling his childhood

The Junior Ranger Scouts is a group of young prey mammals in Zootopia that is similar to the Cub Scouts. The film-specific group that Nick tries to join is identified as Pack 914.

Role in the Film[]

Nick Admiring Uniform

The group is first mentioned by Nick Wilde around the middle of the film as Nick tells Judy Hopps about his childhood. As a kit, Nick wanted nothing more than to be a scout, so his mother "scraped together" enough money to buy Nick a brand new uniform.

Pack 914

Nick at the Scout meeting

In a flashback to his childhood, one night, Nick heads to a Scout Meeting for his initiation with the other members of Pack 914 (all of whom are prey animals), only to be roughly bullied and muzzled by them and their self-spoken, prejudiced leader on account of him being a fox.

After Nick breaks free of their hazing and runs outside to escape, he removes the muzzle and breaks down in tears, his dream of fitting in crushed.

Nick-crying

Nick after being bullied by the Junior Ranger Scouts

As a result of his unpleasant experience with the Scouts, Nick develops a dislike of muzzles and prejudiced mammals.

In the present, he states to Judy that he also vowed to never expose his true vulnerability to others and came to believe that no one would ever see him as anything but sly, shifty, and untrustworthy due to him being a fox. So, he resolved to live out the "sly fox" stereotype.

Trivia[]

  • During the initiation, five troop members are present. A zebra, hippo, woodchuck, wildebeest, and horse. All prey animals. Furthermore, there is no Scoutmaster, or any adult supervision present at this incident.
  • The Junior Ranger Scouts is a Zootopia reflection of the real-world Cub Scouts. A Cub Scout "pack" takes on the same number as the Boy Scout "troop" they fall under. That's why the sign on the building that Nick enters says "Troop 914" but when we follow Nick down to the basement a banner on the wall says "Pack 914". Nick uses the terms "troop" and "pack" interchangeably.
  • In addition to the Junior Ranger Scouts, there are also the "bunny scouts", as mentioned by Yax.
  • As part of the initiation, Nick recites the Ranger Scout oath promising to be brave, loyal, helpful and trustworthy. During his adventure with Judy, Nick demonstrates all four qualities of character.
    • Brave - Nick stands up to Chief Bogo in the rain forest to save Judy's job.
    • Loyal - Nick refuses to leave Judy in the museum after she injured her leg even when she insists.
    • Helpful - Nick's knowledge of Zootopia and having a friend at the DMV, helped Judy's investigation immensely.
    • Trustworthy - Judy trusted that Nick would pretend to be savage and clamp his teeth around her throat but not hurt her.
