''The Nut Job 2: Nutty by Nature'' is the sequel to computer-animated film ''WesternAnimation/TheNutJob''. It was released in North America on August 11th, 2017 by Creator/OpenRoadFilms.

After the Nut Shop explodes under mysterious circumstances, Surly and the rest of the animals are left facing a shortage as they struggle to find another supply of food. As they desperately look for more food to eat, the city's mayor intends on destroying Liberty Park so he can build an amusement park over it. With no other option, Surly and the other animals team up with a gang of mice led by Mr. Feng so they can fight the mayor's forces and save the park.

----
!!''The Nut Job 2'' provides examples of:

* BerserkButton: Calling Mr. Feng "cute" or "adorable" enrages him, and will more than likely lead to a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.
* HypocriticalHumor: Mole is offended over two humans whacking several moles in a Whack-a-Mole game, which he openly states. Then a mole pops out and startles him, and he immediately whacks it.
* KillerRabbit: Mr. Feng is an adorable little mouse with big, round eyes. He's also the leader of a street gang, and is capable of subduing most animals larger than him with ''one punch''.
* LoveAtFirstSight: Between Precious and Frankie, the mayor's bulldog.
* MomentKiller: When Precious encounters Frankie, they gaze at each other while romantic music plays. Then she farts.
--> '''Precious''': "Sorry."
* TemptingFate: While outside, Surly tells Andie that there's no way the Nut Job will explode. So naturally, it does seconds later.
* ZergRush: Dozens of Mr. Feng's mice swarm together and ram themselves against a construction vehicle. They manage to ''flip it over''.
