Australia would be great. AK is already pretty big, but I think another land would be do-able there.

I don't think the park is to large and would love to see them expand the current areas and add new ones. It always felt like it was supposed to have a water bus that would go around to the different lands, there is even a boat lauch que area semi-disguised as a resting spot. It would serve the same purose as the Disney railroad at the Magic Kingdom by cutting down on the amount of walking you would have to do to get from land to land and be an attraction in and of itself.

I thought it would be cool if they could have section about bears - grizzlies, black, brown, polars, etc. - and they could move the Country Bear Jamboree from WDW Magic Kingdom to this new area in the AK, and re-do the vacated spot in the MK with a Woody's Round-up Western Show (a 3D film thing maybe).

That's an interesting idea. Do they even have bears at animal kingdom, I can't think of any.

There's been talk of a Disney villains park for years. How about if Disney built a coaster type park at the AK and call it Dragons or some kind of other name of cryptozoological origin. They could put it across the lake and have it away from the real animals. This way it wouldn't just be a teenage park like the villains park. They could have everything from a dragons coaster to a unicorn ride. It could be, in keeping with Disney, a family coaster park with something for everybody in the family.

I don't think AK needs anymore lands although I would like to see more short cuts between lands

They could recreate Narnia as a new land. It would fit into the Animal Kingdom theme and could even be a good segue to a mythical beast land that they originally had in mind.

Narnia is a great idea all those different creatures would be a challenge!
Actually used to be a water taxi around AK! Disney stopped that sometime ago!
Love the bears idea but doubt they will do that with new land at Disneyland being the California adventure! Large bear is the center piece! Great ideas thou!

Actually, the "Grizzly River Run" mountain resembles a bear, but other than that there's nothing about that whole area of DCA that's about bears. Plus, moving that ride into AK would not work as AK already has the same thing - Kali River Rapids.

So, if AK did dedicate a section to bears - it would be unique to AK alone!

If they Dedicated an area to bears, especially Florida bears it would be great and maybe they could start a breeding program for a very distressed species.

They could help bring back the Florida Panther, but I guess doesn't fit the areas to well.

Florida panthers require a huge amount of land. I don't know if they can be kept.

I don't know, they have tigers and at least one leopard there. I would think they have relatively similar needs.
