Disney4me Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 It seems like we’ve been holding our breath ever since Disney’s announcement to retheme an entire land of Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Chip and Dale in Dinoland! While several ideas and choices have been tossed around about what we could see in the new retheming of Dinoland U.S.A., if you take a quick look around, you won’t have to look very far to already see evidence of its countdown to extinction. Come on, take it all in! That’s it — deep breaths. That’s essentially what we tell ourselves every time we step through that Dinoland U.S.A. sign over us as we’re roaming the park. Dinoland U.S.A. has played an integral roll at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park since it opened over 20 years ago and now we’re finding ourselves seeing its decline in slow motion. Dinoland U.S.A.

Dinosaur When Disney initially announced plans to retheme the land, they also threw out several ideas of what we could expect to see take its place.

Just recently we learned of a trip Disney Imagineers took to gather inspiration from the Mayans, their culture, and their art. This resulted in several models created that bear a striking resemblance to Casita from Encanto and the nature around it. ©Disney Additionally, a permit was filed that seems to indicate intent to begin construction soon in the surrounding area. This was the second permit since March filed which tends to suggest to us that the end for Dinoland U.S.A. may be more near than we thought! ©SWFMD So for now, it seems we need to continue to savor every moment we still have in Dinoland U.S.A. and keep an eye out for its chapter coming to a close.
