Nome Rafiki’s Planet Watch é discretamente removido dos sites da Disney

Após seu fechamento em fevereiro de 2026, a Disney removeu todos os vestígios do nome Rafiki’s Planet Watch das sinalizações e sites do Walt Disney World, retornando à marca original Conservation Station antes da reabertura com o tema de Bluey no verão de 2026.

O Disney’s Animal Kingdom concluiu uma fase de rebranding discreta para sua área educacional de cuidados animais, anteriormente conhecida como Rafiki’s Planet Watch. Como noticiado anteriormente, a atração foi fechada em 23 de fevereiro de 2026, para reformas, sem alarde sobre a mudança permanente de nome. Agora, o site oficial do Walt Disney World e os materiais voltados aos visitantes usam exclusivamente 'Conservation Station' — seu nome original desde a inauguração do parque em 1998, antes do rebranding com o tema de O Rei Leão em 2000 para atrair mais visitantes.

Essa mudança não anunciada está alinhada com os preparativos para o Bluey’s Wild World, uma nova atração familiar que será inaugurada no verão de 2026. A experiência incluirá interações com Bluey e Bingo, jogos com temática animal e atividades na natureza. O zoológico de contato Affection Section está sendo renovado, renomeado e abastecido com espécies australianas para combinar com as origens de Bluey. O nome simplificado Conservation Station agora unifica o passeio de trem Wildlife Express Train, as exposições veterinárias e as mostras de conservação, removendo os vínculos com O Rei Leão para a integração de Bluey.

Embora a programação educacional fundamental sobre cuidados com os animais persista, as atualizações combinam a missão de conservação do Animal Kingdom com um apelo lúdico voltado a franquias para famílias com crianças pequenas.
