Changes to Kilamanjaro Safari at AK

As reported on WDW News Today... Many changes are planned for the popular safari. Click the link for the whole story - most interesting.

Kilimanjaro Safaris Says Goodbye to Wilson and “Jambo” to Nighttime Safaris?

According to this article, The story line of Wilson, poachers and Little Red the elephant are being replaced by a Zebra showcase.  IMHO, based on past experience with cantankerous Zebras, they may not be the best role model.  But they could be at least entertaining.  Disney is even considering night safaris with possible night vision equipment.  The story reports that the first changes will be in place by Fall, and more changes are planned for "3-4 years" out.  It seems Disney is looking for ways to keep people at AK past 5 PM.
