Confession: I wasn’t feeling overly sentimental about the end of DinoLand USA at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. But on a recent visit I suddenly felt sadness about Cementasaurus, the big ol’ dino that happily stood guard at the entrance for years.

Bakso, a Sumatran tiger cub born in September at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, has officially made his debut and can be seen with his mother, Sohni, on the Maharajah Jungle Trek. Bakso made his grand debut on Wednesday as his animal keepers proudly watched, according to a news release from Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment (ASE).
