New Hulu Interface Rolling Out Makes User Experience More Like Disney+

Good, I think Hulu has a laughably horrible interface as is. Almost makes me not want to use it.

well, it's Thursday morning so time for some more Disney vacation cancellations (now through June 13th)

https://blogmickey.com/2020/05/walt-disney-world-begins-cancelling-vacations-through-june-13th/

My June 4 arrival still hasn't been canceled in MDE. Guess they want my deposit for as long as they can have it.

Where is this hog located? I don't recall seeing it before.

Might be mistaken, but I thought I remembered seeing this animal in that briefy entryway area that has a handful of animal displays that you walk through before you hit the bridge.

I think you are right @OhioStateBuckeye - at least according to the Animal Kingdom map, the "Babirusa" is one of the animals indicated to be in the Oasis area:

Masks NOT required. Interesting. Also interesting to see "which" attractions won't be open. Wonder if they will adjust prices or have offers to entice guests to come this summer. From the one time I was there (mid-week October 2017), I don't think it came close to hitting its 50% capacity then. . I like the park, hopefully the opening goes well.

If you go up the pathway on the right from the entrance toward the tree of life the Babirusa environment is located on the right side. I have only seen them a couple of times even when I've been looking for them though.

Thanks. Now that you mention that area I do recall seeing it!

In the longer thread on the topic most people can see it and a few can't - all getting that same message. I don't know why, it's Orange County's site.

I downloaded it - maybe this will work?
