Tusker House Restaurant guests who meet Donald Duck may notice that his safari jacket is already missing its Dino Institute patch. DinoLand U.S.A. officially closed after Animal Kingdom closed yesterday.
Donald’s Jacket
We noticed at Tusker House yesterday that Donald’s safari outfit had already been altered in preparation for the closure of DinoLand. The safari jacket has a few patches on it, like the Disney’s Animal Kingdom logo patch on his right shoulder, and yesterday we spied a different one. Now there is a Kilimanjaro Safaris logo patch just below his lapel on the right-hand side in place of the former Dino Institute logo patch.
As you can see from the 2022 photo above, Donald used to have a Dino Institute logo patch on the right-hand lapel side. It was often at least partially obscured by his bill or collar flap, depending on how he posed for photos.
