The dichotomy in Zootopia (however muddied and nonsensical, this is distinctly stated), is not carnivore and herbivore, but "predator" and "prey" which isn't the same category at all. Elephants are not prey animals for the exact reason you mentioned. "Predators" do have advantages over their "prey".....that's part of the distinction, and thus a significant difference in vulnerability which I don't think it's reasonable to suggest "prey" animals forget in the name of community.

Tho, part of my problem is the downplaying of both specificity of that predator-prey relationship and the way they develop the ~prejudice~ in a way that isn't really born out by the environment they've created or the knowledge they are expecting the audience to bring with them (like the idea that prey animals are all herbivores and herbivores are all prey animals which is false), yes also.

I assumed the movie was just mocking the idea that impoverished young black men were “super predators”: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superpredator_theory
