I wonder if someone was pulling your leg about the animals from Discovery Island being put on the Ark. I was told at the campground that the animals at the petting zoo were sold off. Makes me wonder….

I tend to believe the story about water from the seven seas being put into the lagoon originally. I doubt if the entire lake is from those sources, but at the time, Disney was very into authenticity and probably did collect water from the seven seas, but not in the volume needed to fill it up. Probably more like samples.
