Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park is an Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) accredited facility that welcomes millions of guests annually. The Walt Disney World Resort theme park participates in endangered species breeding programs through the Species Survival Plan and allocates funds to conservation through the Disney Conservation Fund. However, not many Disney Parks fans know that in 1998, the Central Florida Disney park was investigated by the federal government after a series of animal deaths.
