The rule is that Disney does not supply straws, just as no gum is supplied, so bring the item yourself. I'm sure she isnt evil hearted and thus will not be strategically planting straws in each animal pit.
It's proven fact about cigarette smoke and the topic issue negatively harminf the environment, and they STILL allow that (however in certain areas.) Im not trying to be mean either
I just looked at some of the stuff from my last AKL visit. No straws, and not to even bringing them there as well.
The are very strict rules about a few things there. No straws, no ballons, no feeding animals, no smoking on the balconies of the savanna, and if you drop something into the savanna by acciedent, you need to call front desk right away.
Failure to do so can get you kicked out of the resort (without a refund I might add). Disney takes the safety of the animals very very seriously, and they will not tolerate infractions.
If it was me, and I had to have a straw, I do what Figaro said and bring a big hard plastic reusable ones, similar to what they give out for the kids cups.
It's not just that you may be very carful about it, but the issues are still there after you throw it away. It could blow out of a trash can or something like that and get into a savanna. A bird grabs it, and then it dies. Nobody want to hurt these animals, and I for one will not break these rules. I can go strawless for week and handle it. :animwink:
