The Affection Section, otherwise known as a petting zoo, reopened at Disney’s Animal Kingdom today. The area is accessible by train, the Wildlife Express, as part of the Rafiki’s Planet Watch area. The petting zoo features animals like goats, donkeys, cows, sheep and pigs where you can pet and brush them.
I’m sure that the area was busier than ever with all the bloggers rushing in to get footage for news stories.

Let’s take a look at social media:

If you want to go pet some animals you can do so again! I would just wait a day or two to go because it’s going to be far busier than it ever is right now. Gotta get those Instagram posts and selfies right now.
