  • EPISODE 134
    LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, BOYS AND GIRLS! For the very first time on Zoo Tours, we are finally joining the World’s Most Magical Celebration at the Walt Disney World Resort. As much as I would love to present every aspect of every park, it does without saying that our hearts are set on Disney’s Animal Kingdom. 580 acres of balance, harmony, and wonder - real, ancient and imagined! There’s so much we could do to grow for our appreciation for wildlife, but today, I will be taking you on a journey through one of the park’s more peaceful attractions. The Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail opened with the rest of the kingdom in 1998. An African forest exhibit that goes above and beyond anything we’ve seen before. As a Disney park, every corner is designed with a greater purpose, there are twists, surprises, and a well told story. The Gorilla Falls is no exception… Colobus monkeys have taken over the rehabilitation center, you’ll find and study tools used by Dr. Kulunda and their research students to document wild animal behaviors, discovery color combinations you didn’t think we possible in nature inside the aviary, listen to hippos underwater at the Safi River, and learn all of the ways Gorillas live and work together as a family.
    For this episode’s question of the episode, I would like you all to share what your favorite Disney park is!
    Please follow my good friend Johnny, without him, this video and many others would not be anywhere near as good as you see them.

    I sincerely hope that more zoos follow DAK and Woodland Park Zoo and start offering their gorillas the ability to climb in living trees, and forage on real vegetation

    My favorite Disney park is either Magic Kingdom or Animal Kingdom. Animal Kingdom is probably the most immersive zoo you will ever go to!

    Awesome video, Zach. Disney’s Animal Kingdom is my all time favorite Disney Park!
    The original storyline for Kilimanjaro Safaris revolved around guests helping Warden Wilson stop poachers. The star was a baby elephant named Little Red.

    My absolute favorite zoo I’ve been to. Gorilla Falls has one of if not the best gorilla habitat I’ve seen and their aviaries are phenomenal. So happy to see you doing this one!

    This was incredible. Animal Kingdom is my all time favorite Disney park. I absolutely adore Kilimanjaro safaris. This was without a doubt the best video done on Gorilla Falls. I hope you do more videos on Animal Kingdom. Keep up the amazing work. #ZooTours=G.O.A.T

    I was there November of 2022 and, in speaking to one of the keepers in the aviary, they no longer have the racket-tailed rollers or the black-cheeked lovebirds.

    I love how Bachires (that is spelled wrong) can get huuuuge but because they grow so slowly they're popular for mid level aquarium keepers like me. I love mine, He's got asuch a great personality. He's also albino

    Nice! Been to Disney's Animal Kingdom back in 2005! Say, try to visit the Epcot's Under The Sea With Nemo & Friends & the San Diego Zoo Safari Park sooner or later! And 3 zoo trivia questions for you & your girlfriend, Zak...
    1) Which day did the SF Zoo welcome Callista the female Andean Condor?
    2) What animal did Disney's Animal Kingdom once have?
    3) What seabird did the Oakland Zoo recently rescued that had a fishhook barbed on its neck?

    You certainly had much better luck in the aviary than I did in my 2022 DAK visit! This video easily features a lot more birds than I saw during my visit. One possible correction though- are you sure that's a blue-naped mousebird? It looks a lot more like a speckled mousebird to me.

    I’ve been to Disney’s Animal Kingdom since 2001, 2007 & 2009. I hope I’ll someday return to Walt Disney World in Florida & see what’s been going on since I last visited. Speaking of which, I have this to say. Ahem. 24:13 Aren’t these new? I don’t remember seeing them before. However, I’ve heard about those. The Grevy’s Zebras are the Largest species of Zebra in Africa. But lately since a 1992 PBS NATURE Program “Horse Tigers”, Narrated by the late George Page said that the Grevy’s Zebras are Endangered. 2500? Last time I heard there were 10,000 of them left in the Wild of Africa. Oh & they also lived in Somalia too. Again, I heard it from the 1992 PBS NATURE Program. Before they made some other Documentary appearances. Not to mention if some of those are on DVD not only to entertain, but to bring in the attention to help support & preserve any Endangered Species.

    What about the Kilimanjaro Safari or the Maharajah Jungle Trek?

    • @ZooTours
      @ZooTours  Год назад

      What about?

    • @thomashuffman3237
      @thomashuffman3237 Год назад

      @Zoo Tours well, the Maharajah Jungle Trek gives you great views of Tigers, Fruit Bats, Komodo Dragons, and various other tropical Asian animals. And the Kilimanjaro Safari is one of the closest things one can get to a Safari on the african Plains.

    • @ZooTours
