Animal Kingdom Character Greetings

 

Cast members regulate the lines and the pace of greetings, allowing a minute or two per family for pictures and autographs. The PhotoPass photographer will take a picture for you to be added to your PhotoPass card if you wish to get a print made.

Each character has a path along the greeting trails. Follow the trail that leads to who you want to meet, and greet them with a smile for a fabulous photo, or ask for their signature to add to your autograph collection.

Some popular characters on the Camp Minnie-Mickey Greeting Trails may include Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Pluto. Recently, Thumper has been available to pose with too.

During holiday seasons, the characters dress up accordingly.

Check your park guide for hours when the characters will be on the Camp Minnie-Mickey Greeting Trails.

“What was that?”  

“Did that tree just move?”  

When walking through Disney World, one expects to meet lots of characters. Sometimes these encounters are expected and intentional; sometimes they are unexpected. Often you meet “first tier” characters, such as Mickey & Minnie Mouse, Goofy, or Donald Duck. Sometimes you meet unconventional characters like the soldiers from Toy Story, or the Imperial Stormtroopers from Star Wars.

When she moves, it is with the grace and agility of nature itself. When she stands still, she portrays the strength of a rock. When she so wishes, she can blend into the scenery so completely that all are blind to her presence.  

 Once revealed, she always draws a crowd!

Using stilts, extended arms and creative costuming, DiVine fluctuates between 7 and 16 feet tall. When she crosses the path, it’s impossible to miss her. When she curls around a post, it’s easy to mistake her for ivy. When she hugs a tree, she vanishes into the landscape.

 

Pipa The Talking Recycling Bin, is at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, appearing at Rafiki’s Planet Watch and encourages guests to recycle.

Also at Animal Kingdom, there is a character named Wes Palm, a talking palm tree.
