This is an attempt to list every species on exhibit at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge during my visit on 6-16-15. I am including species for which there is a sign on each exhibit, or the identification brochure available to lodge guests and visitors, or species identified by the “cast members” stationed at many of the exhibits. Some of the limited amount of signs are now outdated so I have disregarded them when I know them to be wrong. The “cast members” are the greatest source of information since the brochure does not specify which animals are in which exhibit, but there were a few contradictions in their identifications. This is not intended to be a full account of the collection. Also, species on exhibit are sometimes moved, so some that were there one day may have disappeared from public view the next. This list may be of more interest to those already familiar with the lodge since I am not arranging the species by animal type.
