It’s Tough to be a Bug! is a 3D film hosted by Flik from Disney’s animated film A Bug’s Life. The Discovery Island attraction sits inside a theater at the base of the Tree of Life. The film teaches guests that it really is tough to be a bug. It will be replaced by a new Zootopia-themed attraction that opens on November 7, 2025.
You may also be aware that a portion of Dinoland, U.S.A., closed in early 2025, including TriceraTop Spin, Fossil Fuel Games, and Chester and Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures.
