From our friends over at the Disney Parks blog.
Walt Disney’s fascination with animals—both real and imagined—and the role that animals play in Disney storytelling is the basis for an inspiring legacy that continues today. A fantastic example is the release of the Diamond Edition of “Disney The Jungle Book”, the last animated feature personally produced by Walt.
For the first time ever on Blu-ray, the film features unforgettable characters and thrilling adventures with Mowgli as he journeys deep into the jungle and learns “The Bare Necessities” of life from happy-go-lucky Baloo the bear. Included in the all-new Blu-ray bonus features are the real-life animals that were so often a source of inspiration for Walt. Here’s a look at one of the bonus features—a fun visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom by Blake Michael and G. Hannelius, stars of “Dog With a Blog,” to learn how Disney’s Animal Programs cast members care for our elephants.
