Madge Honeybadger, aka Dr. Madge Honeybadger, aka just plain Honey.
Here was another character from the ‘shock collar’ version of Zootopia that underwent a profound metamorphosis from her initial conception to the final version we saw of her on the film.
In her first version, Honey was sometime associate of Nick and Finnick; a quirky survivalist with a deep-seated aversion to sheep.
By the time she made it onto the silver screen, she had evolved into Mayor Leodore Lionheart’s not-entirely-willing partner and medical expert.
Here then we present a collection of Zootopia fanart, depicting Dr. Honeybadger’s progress from aggressive eccentric to passive subordinate.
Enjoy…and don’t forget to show the original artists some love by clicking on the source links. (Maybe Honey-badger don’t care, but they do.)
Get your art after the break!

In her first incarnation, Honey lived in an underground bunker stocked with survival gear. etc. (Note the golf clubs directly behind her.)

(Not the neatest pin on the bulletin-board, is she?)

Honey’s survival tools.
Most of this stuff is supposed to be anti-sheep weaponry; ironic, considering that a sheep turned out to be the villain in the final film

As the character of Honey evolved, she became less and less paramilitary, and more and more punk.

This is actually a very clever piece of artwork.
Notice that Honey has three trank darts sticking out of her (and a fourth about to hit,) and she’s till running full tilt.
That’s not so far-fetched as you might think; REAL honey badgers have a natural immunity to poison.
I’ve seen vids of them shaking it off after being bitten by cobras and puff adders
