Disney’s Dr. Mark Penning has shared an update on the animals of Walt Disney World post-Hurricane Milton.
What’s Happening:
- Dr. Mark Penning, Disney’s Vice President of Animals, Science & Environment has shared a video showing how Disney’s animal experts cared for the thousands of animals that call Walt Disney World home during Hurricane Milton.
- The video specifically showcases flamingoes being let out of their cage and back into their home at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.
- Penning notes that cast members kept a watchful eye on the animals and assessed and carefully removed storm debris before moving the animals back into their habitats, following the passing of the storm.
- Not all of Walt Disney World escaped totally unscathed. Over at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, the roof of the Aotearoa building was damaged during the events of Hurricane Milton.
- All four Walt Disney World theme parks are now back to normal operations, as of today, Friday, October 11th.
