Attraction History When Disney Imagineers created the Tree of Life, they originally wanted a high scale restuaruant named the Root Restaurant to be built inside of the icon . Early on however, Disney decided that they would be better served housing a show inside the tree . Since the Tree of Life was going to be the symbol of Disney's Animal Kingdom, Imagineers wanted the show to have themes of nature and conservation. One idea that was pitched for the attraction was a film that would have shown guests the "Wonders of Nature" and concept work for this attraction was done by Imagineer Bryan Jowers </ref> ..→
