Back in late May, Dug from Pixar’s UP! was not only meeting with guests at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, but he was talking with guests too! We found him roaming around Discovery Island throughout the day, chatting with guests, instead of at the more formal meet and greet space nearby at the Wilderness Explorers Club House.
Talking Dug at Animal Kingdom
Unfortunately, Dug has not been chatting with guests for quite some time now (read: months), and Cast Members are not sure if he will feel chatty anytime soon. Walt Disney World has not returned multiple requests for comment.
Guests can still meet with Dug at the Wilderness Explorers Club House, but if you see meet & greet times listed for Dug within the My Disney Experience, that means he’s not roaming the land and not chatting with guests.
Talking Dug originally debuted at Disney California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort for their Pixar Fest event, but then made his way to Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom not long after. Unfortunately, there is no indication that he will resume chatting with guests anytime soon at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
