Assuming the AK stuff ends up actually happening, Dinosaur isn't being removed over problematic elements. It also isn't as classic or popular as Splash and arguably even Country Bears. There may be a backlash over Dinosaur closing, as there is with any ride, but it won't come close to the backlash that Tiana got them. And it won't come in the same form either.
Any significant backlash over Dinosaur closing will be more likely to come from Zootopia as the replacement than Dinosaur itself closing, beyond the fact that Disney shouldn't be replacing attractions in general when they need significantly more capacity. There might be a little about about the removal of dinosaurs from the park too.
I've never gotten the impression that Dinosaur has a large, passionate fanbase that will be upset to see it go -- not to say there won't be anyone who will be upset that it's closing (of course there will be) but it won't be comparable to Splash.
