The crumbling ruins around an animatronic tiger on the Jungle Cruise that became a little too realistic and left the big cat comically stuffed in a wooden box will soon be updated at Disneyland.

Disneyland has filed building permits valued at $600,000 with the city of Anaheim to replace the audio-animatronic tiger structure on the Jungle Cruise attraction, according to city records.

The permits filed in August call for new electrical, footings, steel frame and cement plaster rockwork on the Jungle Cruise tiger structure.

The Jungle Cruise will close Sept. 16 to Oct. 3 for a seasonal refurbishment.

The Jungle Cruise suddenly closed in November when the infrastructure crumbled around the audio-animatronic tiger across from the Indiana Jones Adventure temple entrance.

The tiger scene was hidden behind green scrims until a wooden fence could be built around the animatronic animal to hide the necessary repairs. The temporary fence hid a rock shrine arch that frames the tiger. A quartet of animatronic crocodiles remain on the steps below the tiger.

Walt Disney Imagineering did its best to dress up the odd looking “tiger in a box” as part of an archaeological dig site with a “Restricted Access” notice warning that no items were to be removed without written permission from the “Board of Regents of the Archaeological Department.”

Jungle Cruise skippers occasionally worked the boxed tiger into their comedic repertoire of bad jokes and witty banter.
