The Tree of Life.

The Tree of life is a sort of centerpiece of Disney's Animal Kingdom. Several impressions: It is huge. It is molded so that there are the images of animals embedded in the tree, much like the way fossils are embedded in rock outcroppings. Of course there is an attraction in the tree--a sort of insect based 3-D film (with special effects) The special effects relate to the film. So for example, in the film some insects spray acid toward the crowd and water (not acid) sprays out of the seat in front of you. It is kind of like seeing the Rocky Horror Picture Show, without the kinkyness. dbp
