Touring #DisneylandParis was fun. Jambo! I’m Dr. Mark Penning, VP of Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment. Earlier today I captured this sunrise selfie on the savanna at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Let’s see what our animals are up to today. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/pjv7Nsrw2g

Mornings are my favorite time here because it’s so relaxing. Looks like these Ankole feel the same way. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/v0qbGKuRTr

Each morning the Animal Care Team provides a balanced diet and enrichment for our animals to discover. Tigers have a keen sense of smell. They love when we put perfume on plants, and it’s fun to watch them sniff and roll around in it. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/QYzH0B9wPE

Hyena may have a reputation for being intimidating. In fact this girl Scooter and our other hyena Zawadi prove that these animals are highly intelligent and an important part of the ecosystem. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/Sla6TeMI1A

Who doesn’t love meerkats? Though they’d probably disagree with my thoughts about hyena. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/nhNEkyzOl4

Did you know that Cast Members care for more than 26 species of birds in the Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail aviary alone? This is a Crested Coua, which is native to Madagascar. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/g8re83xxBK

1-year-old Grace, a Western Lowland Gorilla, and her mom Kashata still stay close together, but Grace loves to explore and play. She is another success of the Species Survival Plan overseen by @zoos_aquariums. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/PAQcBJfO4G

Komodo dragons, like Ghidra here, are ectotherms. They change their surroundings to maintain consistent body temperature. You can find them sunning in the morning and relaxing in shade later in the day. #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/HcrZshjAmt

Tigers are a highlight of the Maharajah Jungle Trek here in Asia. I was excited to come across Jeda keeping guard over ruins in the Anandapur Village. Isn’t he magnificent? #DisneyAnimals #DisneyCastLife pic.twitter.com/tg9tFrLSue
