The Wood-imals of Jungle Island

As a kid in the early 1970's, I got to experience the Wood-imals when we visited Jungle Island across the street from Knott's Berry Farm. They were classic folk art creations for an audience of children and I remember them fondly.

PLEASE post photos of Jungle Island if you can get some. I have absurdly fond memories and no pictures to speak of. I'd be forever in your debt!

Any chance you can post those photos of jungle island again? They are missing(at least for me) from the posted link...

What ever happened to the trees from Jungle Island? I might know of a new home for them.

Your woodimal posts are very cool. I remember these from when I was a kid at Knott's Berry Farm. I had pictures of a couple of them that were lost for years but I finally found them today. Too bad there are not more pictures of Jungle Island online.
