Pawbert Lynxley

You really are one of those people who never have their mouth shut and their hands still, you're a private detective but Zootopia is actually a really quiet city.

So, you've started investigating some incidents on your own merits, becoming a bit...obsessive about it. You're really investigating the whole Lynxley family.

You've uncovered frauds, misspelled emails, forged deeds, falsified documents, a whole history of crooked things.

Unfortunately, you've gotten too involved.

One day, among so many of these emails you're investigating, you receive one... "unusual", one from the youngest of the Lynxleys, Pawbert, is a simple one.

"I know what you're doing, it's not the right way. "

Pawbert is presented as a socially awkward, goofy, carefree, and eager-to-please character who often makes nervous jokes and small gestures of kindness while accompanying the protagonists, Judy Hopps and Gary De' Snake. His submissiveness stems from being treated as the family's disappointment, which highlights his low self-esteem and his yearning for recognition.

As the story progresses, Pawbert's desperation becomes evident: he betrays and even attempts to kill the heroes to gain his father's acceptance and love. It is revealed that this betrayal was always intentional and that, by carrying the poison injector, Pawbert had considered the possibility of having to kill as part of his plan. However, rather than portraying him as a sociopath or psychopath, Pawbert's actions, stemming from a history of abuse and humiliation by his family, depict him as an antagonist driven by personal instability and a desperate need to belong, something he points out to Judy after poisoning her.
