Twenty-six-year-old Moyo gave birth to a 327-pound male elephant June 28 after 21 months gestation. This newest addition, which has yet to be named, is the heaviest elephant calf ever born at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Both calf and mother appear to be doing well according to veterinarians and elephant managers, who are optimistic about the calf's likelihood of survival. With assistance from the animal care team, the newborn became comfortable using his "newly discovered" legs and began nursing successfully from his mother soon after birth. He is already feisty and very active. This is the fourth elephant born at Disney's Animal Kingdom. http://allears.net/news/hnews.htm http://allears.net/news/hnews.htm Wed, 2 Jul 2008 19:00:38 -0500 On July 10-13, 2008, the Norway pavilion at Epcot will host Sig Hansen -- one of the featured stars on the popular The Discovery Channel series, "The Deadliest Catch." Hansen will appear inside The Puffin's Roost, the pavilion's merchandise location, each day. He will be joined by his brothers, Edgar and Norman Hansen, who also appear on the show. A fourth-generation Norwegian fisherman, Sig Hansen is the captain of the Northwestern, one of the crab-catching vessels on "The Deadliest Catch." He, Edgar and Norman own and operate the Northwestern. Based in Seattle, Wash., the Hansens have fished together for nearly 20 years. The Hansens' crab-catching skills on the television show also have inspired "Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm," a video game for the Xbox 360 system. In addition to signing autographs and posing for photos, the Hansens will have Northwestern merchandise for sale during their Epcot appearance. http://allears.net/pl/events.htm#july http://allears.net/pl/events.htm#july Thu, 26 Jun 2008 13:45:38 -0500 This week our Disney expert Anita answers questions on whether a Park Hopper Pass is necessary to leave and reenter the same day; Southwest Airlines and Magical Express; where Soarin's scenes were filmed; walking from Shades of Green to the Magic Kingdom; the David Copperfield Project at the Studios; and buying Fastpasses on eBay. http://www.allears.net/aa/anita.htm http://www.allears.net/aa/anita.htm Wed, 2 Jul 2008 19:00:38 -0500 Reader Steve Dancisin shares his report on dining at Walt Disney World with a variety of food allergies. http://allears.net/din/guestfood.htm http://allears.net/din/guestfood.htm Wed, 2 Jul 2008 19:00:38 -0500 In his blog "The World According to Jack," Jack Spence continues to recount his experiences at Tokyo DisneySea. http://land.allearsnet.com/blogs/jackspence/ http://land.allearsnet.com/blogs/jackspence/ Wed, 2 Jul 2008 19:00:38 -0500
