The Tree of Life
The tree of life in Animal Kingdom is the parks centerpiece like that of the Cinderella's Castle in Disney World (pg273). When I visited Animal Kingdom a few years ago I found the Tree of Life to be a work of art. The height of the tree alone is (145 feet). It is amazing to see all the different faces of animals that are carved into the tree as you are riding across the Savanna in the bumpy safari jeep. Animal Kingdom is a zoo that has a lot of different animals for the public to see and it also offers a nice ride for people to relax and enjoy themselves through the park.

But I think the question Kidd poses is, is Animal Kingdom focusing on the animals like the say or is it more commercialized with rides & entertainment in which they over expose these animals?
ReplyDeleteI would say that there is a fair share of commercialism and exploitation of families throughout Disney.
ReplyDeleteWhat comes to mind is the cold, hard statement made by Seaworld's CEO after the death of the Seaworld trainer was drowned by the Killer Whale. To paraprase, "The show must go on and the whale was having a bad day.....we need to follow procedures more closely, etc.
