Animal Kingdom - Experiences Around Tree of Life to remain closed

Some experiences in the immediate vicinity of the Tree of Life at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park are currently closed while we inspect the tree and complete any necessary maintenance, as a small branch (weighing approximately five pounds) fell to the ground, away from Guests and Cast. The trails around the Tree of Life will be temporarily closed, as well as the "It's Tough to be a Bug" attraction and the Kid's Discovery Club location. At this time we do not have a reopening date.

We will continue to keep you up-to-date with the situation. Stay tuned.
