WALT DISNEY WORLDANIMAL KINGDOMSpecial 'Lion King' Plushies Announced

Leading up to the highly anticipated Lion King photo-realistic movie, Disney has released a pair of special edition Simba and Nala plushies. Not only are they adorable collectibles, but they will be sold to raise awareness for the “crisis facing lions.” The campaign will raise money and awareness for “The Lion Recovery Fund,” which supports the maintenance and building of new conservatories for wild lions. The foundation’s goal is to double the number of lions living the wild within the next couple of years.

Disney will donate $5 to the Wildlife Conservation Network in support of the LRF and its local partners for each sale. There are a limited number of 40,000 plushies available, representing the number of lions whose lives they’re hoping to save.
