The only one that I know of is Morocco and it is for religous purposes.

Norway is the other, but I don't know why.

Well the reason I heard Norway doesnt have lights because of religious reasons since it's icon is a church.

Since 2 people answered it, anyone can take the next question

Thanks... now I just have to get my mind back onto Disney. (Just got home from a Chemistry exam at 11:30).

Okay keeping it in Epcot, but we'll move on over to future world. The attraction Mission Space takes place in what year? Why is it this year?

Good job. It is to commemorate the 75 anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's flight which was the first space flight.

During your safari on Killamajaro, you usually can find at least one lion in view. How does Disney make sure this happens while not interfering with the natural life of the lions?

It has to be a disney trick. If I recall last time the I was on it the lion was sitting on the rock. My guess would be a thing is done to the rock.

no, they have various "enrichment" items to keep them in the open. these items include extra heat lamps, cold areas, food, toys, and other things to keep them all interested and in view.

Come to think of it, I've only ever seen them on that rock. I guess it's because I always go during the summer and I guess Disney does what JS says and puts a cooling pad on the rock or something.

Animatronic lions. It's a running joke in my family, that whenever we are at a resort or Fort Wilderness and we see a squirrel or rabbit we always comment on how realistic the animatronics are becoming.
