Wildlife Wednesday: Guests Are Helping Make Enrichment for Animals

Have you ever made or purchased a toy for your pet – perhaps a chew toy that hides a dog treat or a set of perches for your cat to climb? We do the same with the animals at the Walt Disney World Resort! Enrichment is a significantly important part of our day-to-day animal care, and it helps ensure that all of the animals at Disney's Animal Kingdom are happy and healthy.

Disney's Animal Kingdom guests are learning more about designing enrichment for animals on their way to Rafiki's Planet Watch.

Enrichment encourages animals to do what comes naturally and use their behavioral and physical adaptations. For example, the red river hogs at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge and the rhinos on Kilimanjaro Safaris love to wallow in mud pools. For our small mammal and bird friends at Rafiki's Planet Watch, natural behaviors include digging, foraging, shredding and climbing.

The Science Operations Team is inviting our Guests at the Wildlife Express station to create their own enrichment items from recycled and repurposed materials that will be given to a variety of small mammals and birds.

Using recycled plastic cards, paper and cardboard tubes, you might create a puzzle square that keepers can hide seeds in, a colorful hanging decoration for birds and mammals to shred or a small paper-stuffed tube for animals like rabbits to enjoy.

Disney Parks Best Bites: May 2017

New out-of-this-world menu items have premiered at at Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant at Disney's Hollywood Studios, including new burgers featuring a signature blend of beef. The Drive-In BBQ Burger has house-made barbecue sauce, bacon, cheddar, crispy-fried jalapeño and onion straws on a brioche bun. Vegetarians will love the new Falafel Burger with a crispy chickpea falafel patty, arugula, tomato, Tatziki sauce and red pepper aioli on a brioche bun.

Hear ye, hear ye! A new pasta dish is on the menu at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall at Epcot! You'll feel like royalty enjoying the Fylt Pasta; wha four-cheese stuffed pasta with white wine-cream sauce, roasted vegetables, chive oil and balsamic glaze.

After a year-long hiatus, Surf and Turf has returned to the menu at Narcoossee's at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa! The dish pairs a six-ounce lobster tail with a six-ounce sirloin served with Yukon gold rustic mashed potatoes and roasted spring vegetables.

New specialty candy-inspired beverages are now available at Chef Mickey's at Disney's Contemporary Resort! Relax with the Gummy Oasis, which features gummy bears lounging in a delicious frozen pool of frozen cotton candy lemonade. The Watermelon Crush features Nerds® candy mixed into frozen watermelon and cherry lemonade. These drinks are also available in alcoholic versions for adults.

A new Specialty Hot Dog will debut June 4 at Casey's Corner in Magic Kingdom Park! The Buffalo Chicken Dog features an all-beef hot dog loaded with shredded buffalo chicken, garlic-ranch dressing and celery.

Pizza lovers, rejoice – Frusta has landed at Cool Ship in Magic Kingdom Park. Pizza Frusta is a folded pizza-like snack that is easy to eat on-the-go! Choose from tomato and cheese or pepperoni and sausage.

Have you tried the new open-faced BLT Sandwiches at The Smiling Crocodile at Disney's Animal Kingdom? Each sandwich is one snack entitlement on the Disney Dining Plan. Choose from turkey, salmon or pimento-cheese on toasted ciabatta with lettuce, tomato, and thick-cut smoked, house-roasted bacon.

Recipe: Tuna Poke with Avocado Mousse at Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa

Our chefs at Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, in Hawai'i are always creating delicious island-inspired dishes. Always a menu favorite, poke, which means "cut piece" or "small piece" in Hawaiian, is the perfect seafood starter to share.

To bring a bit of the Hawaiian Islands into your kitchen, check out the fun video and full recipe below for Tuna Poke with Avocado Mousse!

Tuna Poke with Avocado Mousse
Serves 6 as an appetizer

TUNA POKE

• 1 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons yuzu juice
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1 tablespoon finely minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, plus additional for garnish
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon wasabi powder
• 1/8 teaspoon sugar
• 2 pounds fresh sushi-grade tuna, cubed
• Freshly ground black pepper to taste

AVOCADO MOUSSE

• 2 ripe avocados, peeled and seeded
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• Lime juice
• Salt, to taste
• White pepper, to taste

Garnish

• Rice chips

FOR TUNA POKE:
1. Whisk together soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, yuzu juice, lime juice, garlic, sesame seeds, vinegar, wasabi powder, and sugar in a large bowl.
2. Add tuna to mixture and toss to coat. Season with pepper, to taste. Refrigerate 5 to 10 minutes.

FOR AVOCADO MOUSSE:
1. Chop avocados into large pieces and place in a blender. Add heavy cream and blend until smooth.
2. Season with lime juice, salt, and white pepper, to taste.

TO SERVE:
1. Place avocado mousse in a piping bag. Pipe 3 parallel lines of avocado mousse in the center of each plate.
2. Divide tuna poke evenly among six 2.5-inch square molds. Place on top of the avocado mousse.
3. Serve with rice chips.

Cook's Note: Poke (pronounced POH-kay) means "cut piece" or "small piece" in Hawaiian. Be sure to use sushi-grade tuna because the fish is raw. Yuzu is a sour Japanese citrus fruit, and you can purchase in some supermarkets and in Asian grocery stores. If you can't find it, substitute 1 tablespoon lime juice and 1 tablespoon orange juice.

Enjoy!

Meet ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Super Heroes on Marvel Day at Sea with Disney Cruise Line

Anyone else been listening nonstop to Star-Lord's Awesome Mixtape after seeing "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2?" I must say, it's worthy of the name!

Today we're revealing that Star-Lord, Gamora and Groot will be joining the fun during this day-long celebration aboard the Disney Magic. Meeting this group of spacefaring misfits is just one of the many reasons I'm so excited about our Marvel Day at Sea cruises kicking off this fall.

What's more, I'm thrilled to unveil an adult-exclusive Marvel Day at Sea experience inspired by the Guardian's interstellar adventures. After a full day of family events, what should you do next? Something good, something bad? Bit of both? Well, we're giving adults time to kick back in Fathoms nightclub, now a Ravager hideout.

While you mingle with the interstellar outlaws, an electrifying alien dance performance gets the fun started, amping up the energy before a few of your favorite Guardians join the party. As the night continues, you may even get to see the dance-loving Star-Lord get his groove on. As Drax says, "There are two types of beings in the universe: those who dance and those who do not." Which type are you?

Any idea what tunes will be on the playlist throughout the night? You guessed it! Like I said, Star-Lord has awesome taste in music!

More New Dining Spots for Disney Springs at Walt Disney World Resort

Three new dining concepts are expected to open by year's end at Disney Springs at Walt Disney World Resort, with two more on tap for 2018.

This fall, Chicago-based Levy Restaurants is introducing a new Italian concept at Disney Springs, with James Beard award winner and "Top Chef Master" Chef Tony Mantuano leading development. The new restaurant replaces Levy's Portobello Country Italian Trattoria and will feature dishes inspired by Mantuano's adventures in Italy.

Also opening in late 2017 is Wine Bar George, with Master Sommelier George Miliotes bringing his expertise to Disney Springs with an unparalleled wine list including more than 100 selections by the bottle and glass in a range of varietals, vintages and prices. Shareable plates, cheese and charcuterie will complement the wine list, featuring local artisans and seasonally relevant dishes. Look for some fun wine education, including special events and visits from winemakers. Miliotes is widely regarded as one of the industry's foremost wine experts, and is one of only 236 professionals certified by the Court of Master Sommeliers.

And The Edison, a lavish "Industrial Gothic" restaurant, bar and nighttime, is expected to open by year's end. A collaboration of Patina Restaurant Group and Kinetescape's Andrew Meieran, The Edison is noted for classic American food, craft cocktails and live entertainment including cabaret. (The Disney Springs location is inspired by its sister location in Los Angeles.) With Old World sophistication and romance, The Edison will be themed to a 1920s-era electric company, recalling an exuberant era of invention and imagination with entertainment that includes contortionists, aerialists, DJs and more.

Looking ahead to 2018:

• Jaleo, a concept by world-renowned Chef José Andrés' ThinkFoodGroup, will open on the West Side, bringing the spirit and flavors of Spain, with an extensive menu of tapas that reflect the rich regional diversity of traditional and contemporary Spanish cuisine. Think paella cooked over a wood fire, hand-carved Jamon Iberico de Bellota and wood-grilled Iberico pork. With five locations in the United States and Mexico City, this will be the first location in Florida. The first floor of the multi-level restaurant will feature a "grab-n-go" storefront with Spanish-style sandwiches.

• And a new Wolfgang Puck concept will open in a new location in Town Center. Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill, will modernize the traditional "bar and grill" concept in a setting inspired by traditional farmhouses with a touch of elegance. The restaurant will capture the essence of laid-back California dining made popular by Puck at Spago, his flagship restaurant in Los Angeles. The menu will highlight the best of Puck's signature dishes with Mediterranean influences, innovative takes on comfort food classics and handcrafted specialty cocktails, beer and wine.

Create Your Own Avatar Action Figure at ACE Avatar Maker in Pandora – The World of Avatar

In recent months, I have shared details about many of the innovative and creative merchandise products that will immerse guests and connect them like never before to Pandora – The World of Avatar. Today, I'm happy to announce a new way guests can create a truly unique memento at ACE Avatar Maker inside Windtraders. I caught up with Cody Hampton, merchandise product developer, who shared how this experience is connected to this exciting new land.

"We were inspired by the breathtaking Avatar Flight of Passage attraction when designing ACE Avatar Maker," explained Cody. "During the attraction, guests are connected with an avatar for first-person flight on a banshee over the moon's incredible landscape. We thought guests would love to see what they actually look like as a human/Na'vi hybrid. Using a digital process, guests can now create and personalize their own 10-inch avatar action figure."

At ACE Avatar Maker, the natural feel of Windtraders gives way as guests step into a futuristic transformation booth. Guests are greeted by an Alpha Centauri Expedition Scan Technician who uses a state-of-the-art, facial capture scanner to enter data into the Hybrid Digitizing System.

After an image is captured, guests select their avatar's body style from four different choices. Both youth and adult sizes are offered. They also choose eye color, facial striping pattern, and hairstyle.

Throughout the experience, the technician shares interesting details about the Na'vi. For example, Na'vi naturally have yellow eyes; or the Na'vi gene for dark hair is so strong that it is always dominant in the creation of an avatar.

Once the customization process is completed, guests receive an ACE identification tag. This keepsake card is used about 30 minutes later at the ACE Avatar Maker Fabricator inside Windtraders where guests receive their completed action figures. Cody told me the packaging was inspired by the Amnio tank that is seen in the Avatar Flight of Passage queue.

We also offer four accessory sets that can be used with the poseable action figures.

Reservations are required for this experience, and can be made on a first-come, first-serve basis inside Windtraders.

Forty Years of Space Mountain at Disneyland Park

This weekend marked forty years since Disneyland park guests first cleared for launch aboard Space Mountain. This Disney Parks classic first opened at Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort in 1975, and construction on Space Mountain at Disneyland park began soon after. To mark its fortieth anniversary, I'd like to share some of my favorite photos of Space Mountain – which also happens to be my favorite Disneyland park attraction!

George Savvas first shared this photo, showing the 1976 construction of Space Mountain, here on the Disney Parks Blog five years ago to commemorate the attraction's 35th anniversary.

And here we see guests preparing to blast off not long after it opened.

This photo was shot by former Disneyland Resort Chief Photographer Paul Hiffmeyer, who always had a knack for finding unique perspectives. And if you look closely, you may just see a bit of Paul in the photo!

And finally, I love this enchanting photo of Space Mountain looming above Tomorrowland in the starlight.

Experience this Disneyland park classic again when Space Mountain reopens June 1!
