Dug, Russell and Carl Lead Wilderness Explorers to Meet Tiger Cub Bakso at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
The gang from “Up” are just as excited as park guests to see the adorable tiger cub!
Dug, Russell and Carl from Disney·Pixar’s Up went on an adventure earlier this week which included a fun and uplifting encounter with the young Sumatran tiger cub, Bakso.
What’s Happening:
- Meeting up with a Wilderness Explorer and Maharajah Jungle Trek educator, the gang from Up took an adventure to explore the wonders of nature, including a fun and uplifting encounter with Bakso, the adorable Sumatran tiger cub, and his mom, Sohni.
- Bakso is capturing the hearts of not only Dug, Russell and Carl, but fans and guests around the world – causing quite the crowd when he first debuted last month.
- Bakso is the first tiger cub born at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in seven years. Although he is still small – his impact is felt worldwide as there are less than 600 Sumatran tigers left in the wild.
- He also represents Disney’s incredible partnership with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) supporting the Species Survival Plan (SSP), which strengthens endangered species populations around the world.
