Great news! Hopefully this leads to having more of the classic Disney animal characters at DAK.

Is this an Earth Day only thing it a permanent thing?

@drew81 - any insight?

 

[RWilliams]

I can confirm that he will be at RPW at least from 4/19-4/25. I haven't heard anything about this being permanent, its likely just that week for Earth day. He'll be there intermittently from about 10am-4:30.

All I will say is a certain someone is trying. Thank you to that certain someone.

We saw the character back in 2010. I think it was in DAK as well.

But I enjoyed that area.

But I enjoyed that area.

I also like Rafiki's Planet Watch as well. The train ride is pleasant, and the area, set off from the rest of the park, is a calm oasis with interesting exhibits, and a small petting zoo area. (I try to go there early in the morning before the crowds arrive.) Back in mid-May, I saw Rafiki in the Conservation Station.

During my second trip to WDW, I saw Rafiki head to a different room right behind me at that place.

Sudden realization: Jiminy Cricket should be the face and voice of the My Disney Experience app.

Disney seriously needs to update that in the future with Jiminy Cricket's voice reading the character descriptions. I always loved hearing Jiminy's voice during Wishes and formerly Spectromagic.

I always went to the conservation center... love to see the medical stuff and what they do.
