Magic Kingdom Park at Disney World in Orlando file photo.

What a wild morning at Disney World today. Literally. NBC News reports that parts of Disney World were shut down today after a bear was spotted in a tree at Magic Kingdom. They think the bear was just looking for food ahead of hibernation season.

Tweets from guests at the parks say that some parts of Magic Kingdom were open, like Tomorrowland, Fantasyland and Main Street USA. Video posted shows Disney cast members on PA systems telling guests to keep an eye on the Disney mobile apps to find out when all areas will reopen.

Reporter Ashley Carter tweeted that Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission has confirmed that biologists with its Bear Management Program. She said that areas near Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Big Thunder Mountain are still closed.

The jokes are already coming from Disney fans. @GoAwayGreen on Twitter said, “My understanding is the real problem with the bear in the Magic Kingdom was that he started his day in Epcot and was not supposed to park hop until 1 p.m.” And no it wasn’t Fozzy Bear. That joke’s popped up a few times too. [Source: NBC News]
