Dr. Zara is the main antagonist in the DreamWorks film, Abominable. She is a zoologist working with and helping Burnish in capturing a yeti and trying to prove his existence to the world. However, it is revealed that Zara is a very evil, greedy, ruthless woman bent on capturing Everest to make money out of him and does not care for animals, or human life.

Background[]

Personality[]

Dr. Zara is shown to be calm, timid and sweet who's interested in studying animals and caring for their well-being. However, she slowly reveals her true colors of being a manipulative, intelligent, uncaring, and greedy woman who does not care for the well-being of animals and only wishes to make money out of them. She also keeps a pet mouse named Duchess by her side to show she cares for animals, but later discards the mouse as she is disgusted by it. Zara is very social and shows compassion to others by offering her help, but this is a façade to hide her true nature. When she tries convincing Jin into giving up where Everest is heading, she promises to help him and protect his friends, but later reveals to the Goon Leader that she plans to kill the children after capturing Everest.

Zara is shown to be a master manipulator as she convinces Burnish to retrieve Everest alive in order for her to help him, but truly doesn't care whether the yeti is brought in dead or alive as long as she can make money off of him. After discovering Everest's magic powers, Zara convinces Burnish to continue his pursuit of the yeti by using his feelings of being laughed at and plans to use Everest and his powers to make even more money. When Burnish changes his mind on capturing Everest, after having second thoughts, Zara takes matters into her own hands by knocking out Burnish and ordering the goons to tranquilize Everest. Zara is willing to harm and commit murder, not only on animals, but also on humans as revealed earlier that she planned to kill the children after retrieving Everest, and later shown when she pushed Yi off a bridge to her death and tried to ram Everest over with a snowmobile. However, Yi manages to hang onto a rope and climbs back up to save Everest with the help of her violin. When the rest of the goons are scared off, Dr. Zara and the goon leader try to ram Everest over instead of taking him in alive or dead. Dr. Zara and the goon leader meet their ends when they accidentally crash into the ice and are taken down the mountain.

Later when Yi is alive and frees Everest with her magic violin, Dr. Zara in anger decides to kill the yeti with her snowmobile. This plan fails however when an avalanche comes down and Dr. Zara and the goon leader are seen falling from the snow.
