Disney·Pixar’s Up characters meet Baby Tiger Bakso at Disney’ Animal Kingdom
Dug, Russell, and Carl from Disney·Pixar’s Up embarked on an exciting adventure to discover the wonders of nature. Along the way, they had a heartwarming and joyful encounter with Bakso, a playful Sumatran tiger cub, and his loving mother, Sohni.
Bakso is winning the hearts of not just Dug, Russell, and Carl, but fans and visitors around the globe! Despite his small size, his impact is far-reaching, especially considering there are fewer than 600 Sumatran tigers left in the wild. Bakso also symbolizes Disney’s powerful partnership with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), which supports the Species Survival Plan (SSP) to help boost populations of endangered species worldwide. Families can learn about conservation and the importance of protecting animals like Bakso through Disney’s Wilderness Explorers Program at Animal Kingdom. The park offers a fantastic experience where guests can enjoy wildlife and connect with nature in an engaging and educational way.
Best of all, participating in the Wilderness Explorers Program is completely free with park admission! For families seeking to make lasting memories, Walt Disney World Resort offers the perfect combination of adventure and value. With Disney’s value resorts starting at just $100 a night during off-peak seasons, guests can enjoy excellent service and close proximity to the parks, making it easier to experience the magic as a family.
