If you’ve visited here before, you may have noticed what a HUGE Animal Kingdom fan I am – Kilimanjaro Safari, Expedition Everest, Maharajah Jungle Trek and Pangani Forest Exploration Trail are some of my most favorite attractions at Walt Disney World. It’s the incredible theming and the perfection of those Disney details everywhere you look that make me love this park so much. That’s why I chose this particular post from Disney Musings to share with you today for Saturdays With Nick. The artistic details and interesting animal exhibits of Discovery Island are even more reason to love Animal Kingdom. If you have never taken the time before or are planning your first visit to Walt Disney World, I whole-heartedly recommend taking some extra time to check out this amazing area.
Exploring Discovery Island-Disney’s Animal Kingdom
There are 300 animals carved in this iconic symbol.
There is a wonderful and often overlooked area that gets you closer to this amazing display of artistry called the Discovery Island Trails.
I say often overlooked because every time we’ve visited this serene area, it is relatively uncrowded.
There are wooden foot bridges and tunnels.
Animals you may spot along these paths include White Storks, Asian Small-Clawed Otters, Red Kangaroos…
…West African Crowned Cranes, African Crested Porcupines, Galapagos Tortoise, Lesser Flamingos, Macaws, Saddle-Billed Storks, Lappet Face Vultures, and Ring-Tailed Lemurs.
If you want to get off the beaten path at the Animal Kingdom, take a stroll along the Discovery Island Trails.
