How could this happen!?
One thing is evident about Disney Parks fans: they are crazy about their park attraction characters. Whether it is Figment in EPCOT or Gertie in Disney’s Hollywood Studios Park, fans go wild for characters that are unique to the Disney theme parks. There is not anything wrong with new Disney intellectual property, but it is evident that fans have a special place in their hearts for unique theme park attractions and the characters that exist in them.
One such ride is the Dinosaur attraction in Disney Animal Kingdom Park. While the ride is technically inspired by the film Dinosaur (2000), it has undoubtedly taken on a life of its own in the Disney theme parks. After Disney announced replacement plans for the area that holds this attraction at the D23 Expo, Dinoland USA, fans have been feeling more protective and concerned than ever about the ride’s dinosaurs.
It is for this reason that fans were left speechless after discovering that one iconic ride character had gone missing.

Guest Reports Shocking Occurrence
Disney Resort Guests visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park have recently made an alarming discovery – the iconic Sauropod on the Dinosaur attraction seems to have mysteriously disappeared. This unexpected turn of events has sparked curiosity and intrigue among park attendees, with one particular guest sharing their surprising observation. According to this individual, who embarked on the thrilling adventure of riding the Dinosaur attraction, they noticed a peculiar sight: instead of encountering the majestic Sauropod as expected, they were confronted with the presence of a considerably smaller dinosaur in its place.
The Sauropod has long been a beloved and iconic feature of the Dinosaur ride at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park. This towering prehistoric creature has captivated the imaginations of countless guests over the years. Its absence is genuinely perplexing and has left visitors wondering about the reasons behind its disappearance.
Naturally, such an unusual occurrence has sparked speculation and raised numerous questions. Could this disappearance be the result of a planned renovation or refurbishment of the attraction? Is it an intentional alteration made by the park’s creative team to remove this element? Is the Sauropod’s replacement permanent?! The witness shared;
“So I have been going on dinosaur for years and I while from time to time I’ve experienced B Mode Carno, as far as I can remember the sauropod has always been there. However this last time I went on it (yesterday) I noticed the sauropod was missing and instead of just an empty space there was a really small dino instead. I was so surprised I couldn’t even tell you if was moving or was just standing still.
Has anyone else experienced this? And if so does anyone have any footage of it?”
Another commenter backed up the sighting, saying;
“We were at Animal Kingdom last Thursday and it was missing then too. I’m surprised Disney is leaving such a big part of the ride empty for so long! It’s really awkward to stop and stare at nothing.”
