* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: While asking about the history of the Lang Family, Jimmy is led to believe that they've been around for centuries based purely on the number of Alphas they've had. Morty has to explain that A), they're not a literal family that passes on leadership over generations, and B), they were mostly a ''crime'' family, meaning that a lot of their Alphas ended up dead or arrested before their time.



* WorldOfPun: Zootopia was already one of these so Lang Land naturally qualifies, providing as many attractions as it does wolf puns.

* GoodTimesMontage: Jimmy and Junior have one of these in Chapter 3, visiting several attractions in Lang Land [[ItMakesSenseInContext with lyrics provided by a barbershop quartet]].
* HumanToWerewolfFootprints: Well, more like Wolf-to-Werewolf, but Jimmy gets shown a set of these in Chapter 3 as a clear sign that the Beast is coming from Lang Land.



* SmellyFeetGag: While investigating some footprints left by the Beast, Jimmy sniffs around the area for clues, eventually sticking his nose right in one of the prints and taking a big whiff. He then finds out the hard way that giant footprints smell remarkably like giant feet.



* TimeSkip: Of about nine months after the original fic, allowing for the Vixens to become ZPD officers and many, ''many'' other changes.

* AtrociousAlias: Jimmy takes on the mantle of "James Wolfe" for his undercover assignment, which Danny begrudgingly admits is a perfectly valid wolf name in this world. Junior is about the only one besides Jimmy who actually seems to like the name, though he would've gone with "Johnny Goodboy".



* DidNotThinkThisThrough: Jimmy agrees to the undercover op a little ''too'' quickly and doesn't quite consider all the factors involved. Like the extent of his isolation from his friends, or the fact that he didn't even bother to consult his parents first.

''The Dark Side of the Moon'' is a ''{{WesternAnimation/Zootopia}}'' fanfic co-authored by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/~berserker88 Berserker88]] and [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/6260989/Mind-Jack Mind Jack]]. It is a sequel ([[{{Interquel}} though not THE sequel]]) to ''{{Fanfic/Born to Be Wilde}}'', taking place roughly nine months after the original fic. Zootopia is much changed after the Count's fall, and not necessarily in a good way. The loss of all of Zootopia's major crime lords has resulted in a leaderless criminal empire splintering into many separate factions, all trying to [[EvilPowerVacuum reclaim]] that open territory for themselves. The ZPD is at the end of its rope just trying to keep it under control.

The loss of all of Zootopia's major crime lords has resulted in a leaderless criminal empire splintering into many separate factions, all trying to [[EvilPowerVacuum reclaim]] that open territory for themselves. The ZPD is at the end of its rope just trying to keep it under control.

And on top of all that, there seems to be a werewolf-like beast going around eating people. In order to investigate, rookie fox cop Jimmy Frost is sent undercover into the heart of the Lang Family, where they believe the beast originates. But his greatest challenge might just be convincing anyone that he's a rough-and-tumble biker wolf.

* MakeWayForTheNewVillains: Happens twice in succession in the opening scene. First, Doug Ramses from the movie attempts to bring a bunch of other sheep together in a plot to reassert power. He's soon interrupted by Hella, a dark and mysterious figure who starts to sway the sheep over to her side. Hella is then EatenAlive mid-sentence by the Beast, freaking Doug out enough to immediately [[KnowWhenToFoldEm give up on his plans]].
* TimeSkip: Of about nine months after the original fic, allowing for the Vixens to become ZPD officers and many, ''many'' other changes.
