/* Backstory */
The backstory for the Maharajah Jungle Trek states that since ancient times, the rajahs of Anandapur have hunted tigers in the forest. In 1544, King Bhima Disampati decreed that the forest would become a Royal Preserve where he and his guests could hunt. In order to make the hunting easier, he had the forest enclosed, trapping the animals inside. Ironically, the king was later killed in a hunting accident, and his successors eventually turned the enclosed forest into a nature preserve, where animals and the villagers could live in harmony.
Further evidence in the attraction suggests that the preserve was part of a British colony until 1948, when the villagers of Anandapur regained control and opened the preserve up to the outside world<ref> http://www.disunplugged.com/2010/03/27/maharajah-jungle-trek-at-disneys-animal-kingdom/ </ref>.
