/* History */
Since the name change in December 2000, Discovery Island has seen a relatively few number of changes. In 2001, Wonders of Wild changed its name back to Disney Outfitters <ref name= "d23"/>. In August 2012, Beastly Bazaar closed, before eventually reopening in May 2013 as character meet and greet location called "Adventurers Outpost" <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/beastly-bazaar/ </ref>. Subsequently, on January 4, 2015 <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/creature-comforts/ </ref>, Creature Comforts closed in order to become Animal Kingdom’s Starbucks location. The new Starbucks opened to guests on June 19, 2015 <ref> https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/06/disneys-animal-kingdoms-starbucks-opens-flat-white-lattes-to-help-endangeredspecies/ </ref>. Finally, in March 2016, Disney Outfitters was renamed Discovery Trading Company <ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/shopping/disney-outfitters/news/16mar2016-photos---discovery-trading-company-takes-over-from-disney-outfitters-at-disneys-animal-kingdom.htm </ref>.
 
On May 27, 2016, Tiffins, Animal Kingdom's newest table service restaurant opened in Discovery Island <ref> https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2016/05/tiffins-opens-today-at-disneys-animal-kingdom/ </ref>.
