Doing that research certainly paid off. This is what I wanted to see especially in Zootopia. Animals that look and feel like they properly belong in this world as evolved species.The reason why Zootopia was so genius is that their really did their research and translated actual animal anatomy and morphology into animation and anthropomorphization
They consulted real scientists who study animal anatomy and morphology(my professor was one of them) and built the world around them and spared no expense(if anything, they put quite a bit of effort into the movie itself and reneged with marketing and merchandise, a rarity for Disney films)
Sing, like most furry "worlds", simply just make animals walk on two legs and do human stuff; there's nothing about them that really makes them animals(that would require *gasp* real research!)
