It is the first Disney theme park to be themed entirely around animal conservation, a philosophy once pioneered by Walt Disney himself.
Dedication
Welcome to a kingdom of animals... real, ancient and imagined: a kingdom ruled by lions, dinosaurs and dragons; a kingdom of balance, harmony and survival; a kingdom we enter to share in the wonder, gaze at the beauty, thrill at the drama, and learn.
—Michael Eisner, April 22, 1998
