This falls right in line with the rumor I heard that they were moving Heimlich's Chew Chew train to replace the Wildlife Express and will lead into a themed petting zoo area where you'll be able to meet and greet with real animals dressed as your favorite Zootopia characters.

I know for a fact that the above is confirmed but I'm hearing conflicting reports regarding the "Wakanda Food You Into" QSR location based on the popular Marvel IP "Black Panther" that is supposed to replace the conservatory.

@marni1971 Do you have any insight on this?

We can put this rumor to rest. The lead car from Chew Chew train has been moved to the Pixar offices.

I understand that the space is being used for Cast Member meetings and events - much like the Odyssey at Epcot.
Yep, a local school just had an event there recently.
Some interns also have their first meeting in there - I was told it was facilities engineering interns.

Edit: oops - thought this was the WoL thread. I have not heard of interns in rafiki, but I haven't talked to my intern friends much this semester.
