I recently read a travel article about Walt Disney World and the author made a joke about the fact that there are skeletons all over Walt Disney World.

Obviously you see skeletons in Pirates of the Caribbean.

And there are many in The Great Movie Ride.

Where else do you see skeletons in Walt Disney World?

Full skeletons or do partials count? There are some partial animal skeletons in BTMR.

There's a HUGE T-Rex skeleton outside of Dinosaur.

I think the Mexico boat ride still has some Dawn of the Dead skeleton dolls after the retheming to Three Caballeros. (I always forget the new name).

Dinosaur skeletons in Dinoland, AK. Besides the one Ian mentions, there's a dig site where kids can look for bones (or has that closed?)

Is there any sort of skeletal/skull yeti prop in the Everest queue? I'm trying to recall.

I think Small World has dolls dressed in skeleton costumes in the Mexican scene. Jungle Cruise has a canoe filled with skeletal skulls. One of the trails in AK has animal skulls on display. Of course, there are plenty in the Pirate room at WoD. There are probably more but I can't think of anything else.

There is dig site at T-Rex Cafe with a skeleton. There are skulls on the Pangani Forest Trail, they have Giraffe, Okapi, Hippo, Croc, Meerkat, and Warthog. There is also a Skull on the Wildlife Express Train. So yeah lots skeletons and skulls all around,

There is a skeleton puppet for the Dia de las Muertas hanging in the market area inside the pyramid in Mexico. I remember this because it was part of DS's Kim Possible mission!

A little known fact:

One of Walt Disney's first successful cartoon shorts was titled "The Skeleton Dance". It was released in the early '30's, and had great response from audiences, but the critics didn't like it too much.

( I'm currently reading Neal Gabler's bio of Walt - FASCINATING!).:thumbsup:
