Type
Animal Encounter
Best For
Kids
A petting zoo providing friendly, hands-on encounters with a variety of domesticated animal, including goats and sheep. Brush the goats and sheep, or feed and pet dozens of animals that wander around the yard. This outdoor area is designed fro guests looking to connect with the Animal Kingdom.
- A really nice area for kids. I can’t help but smile when I watch toddlers grin from ear to ear when they’re nose to nose with a goat.
- The Affection Section is my personal oasis of calm in what can sometimes be the chaos of a Disney vacation.
- A great opportunity to get great photographs of your kids close to the animals.
