Disney’s Animal Kingdom Welcomed a New Abdim’s Stork

Get ready for a dose of cuteness overload! Disney’s Animal Kingdom has welcomed a brand new addition to its incredible animal family – an adorable Abdim’s stork chick!

The exciting news was shared by Dr. Mark Penning, Vice President of Disney’s Animals, Science, and Environment. This little chick recently hatched and can now be spotted in DinoLand U.S.A., ready to steal your heart.

Abdim’s storks are known for their impressive nests, which they meticulously build using sticks on rocky terrain. Adult Abdim’s storks are easily recognizable by their striking appearance: sleek black feathers, a bright blue face, and a distinctive red patch near each eye.

Keep your eyes peeled for this fuzzy chick as you explore DinoLand U.S.A. This little one is sure to be a favorite among park guests, and a wonderful reminder of Disney’s dedication to animal conservation.

Congratulations to the Disney Animal Care team on this exciting arrival! We can’t wait to see this little Abdim’s stork chick grow up healthy and strong.
