==Attraction History and Description ==

The Pangani Forest Exploration Trail originally opened as the "Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail" with the rest of Disney's Animal Kingdom on April 22, 1998 <Ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/pangani-forest-exploration-trail/ </ref>. The Exploration Trail was originally designed to be an epilogue to the [[Kilimanjaro Safaris]] <ref name= "notazoo"> http://www.nahtahzu.com/attractions/PFET.html </ref>. Guests who had successfully helped stop the poachers were going to be given access to an exclusive "research station" where they could see Lowland Gorillas. As the poaching aspect of the Safaris was reduced, less focus was paid to the trail's backstory <ref name= "notazoo"/>. In July of 1998, the attraction was renamed the "Pangani Forest Exploration Trail" <ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/pangani-forest-exploration-trail/news/27jul1998-'gorilla-falls-exploration-trail'-renamed-to-'pangani-forest-exploration-trail'.htm </ref>.
