Yikes I thought this was going to be about why Walt Disney "World" (so TV productions) have mosquitoes and I already started imagining something along "it was too annoying to draw/animate mosquitos by hand" in my mind. Reading about the actual article definitively makes much more sense. I think it is important to also acknowledge the history and importance of eradicating mosquitos for the sake of public health. For example, Italy had to deal with malaria at least until Mussolini. Eventually fully eradicating malaria with a combination of draining wetlands and use of insecticides such as the toxic, child-defect-causing DDT. It's quite funny to see that they are using chickens as a canary method.

> Yikes I thought this was going to be about why Walt Disney "World" (so TV productions) It is about Walt Disney World. There are two of them. Disney World and Disney Land. This one is in Florida.

  They thought the article was referring to there being no mosquitoes in the Disney universe stories/canon, but then realized it was about the theme park in Florida.

    It's not exactly within the Disney universe, but they did make "The Winged Scourge": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y68F8YwLWdg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y68F8YwLWdg

  And a few more Disney parks throughout the world.
