Early today, a significant portion of the Magic Kingdom was temporarily closed down. Sources from WDWMAGIC have revealed that the cause of the closure is an unexpected furry guest: a bear, currently perched in a tree near the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in Frontierland.
Disney is yet to release an official statement addressing the curious incident.
For those planning to visit, be advised: Cast Members have been stationed at both the Liberty Square and Adventureland entrances to prevent guests from accessing the western section of the park.
Currently, the “My Disney Experience” app is reflecting that numerous attractions are “Temporarily Closed”. As of 10:00 am today, the closed attractions include:
- Big Thunder Mountain
