Visitors to Disney’s Animal Kingdom have discovered a new sustainable souvenir option at Mombasa Marketplace. These adorable giraffe and elephant figurines are crafted entirely from recycled sawdust using non-toxic glue. Each piece costs $7.99 individually or $14.99 for both animals, making them an affordable keepsake. The display features a video explaining the manufacturing process where sawdust from harvested trees is pressed into molds to create solid figures. Currently available options include giraffe and lion figurines, though the selection may change as these are limited-edition items. Each souvenir arrives on a wooden base branded with Disney’s Animal Kingdom for easy identification. Guests can order by touching a screen and selecting their preferred animal before choosing a payment method. The machine produces the figurine on-site within a few minutes, so visitors should allow extra time for this unique experience. This eco-friendly approach to merchandise aligns with growing environmental consciousness while providing memorable mementos of the park visit.
