The Lemming Brothers Bank is a location featured in the 2016 Disney animated film Zootopia. It is a bank that serves small rodents and is run by the Lemmings.
Background[]
The bank is located in Savanna Central, one of the districts of Zootopia. It is named after the Lemming Brothers, a group of identical lemmings who work as business mammals. The bank has a sign that resembles a hamster wheel, and a tube system that transports the customers in and out of the building. It also has an insurance department, where Louise works as an agent.

Later, Judy returns to the bank with Nick as part of her investigation on a missing otter case. She meets Lance, a bank teller reluctant to help her, and uses her carrot pen to record Nick's confession of his tax evasion. She then blackmails Nick into helping her find the missing otter.
