ORLANDO (AP) -- It has been determined that some of the characters walking around Disney are impostors. Ms. Alexandra Leslie, age 5, noticed something suspicious about Chip and Dale during the Electric Light Parade at the Magic Kingdom. "I know that they are just people in costumes, because they have zippers on their backs" Alex noticed.

Alex went on to add, " The beast (from Beauty and the Beast) was the real thing - he did not have any zippers".

It was undetermined if Donald Duck at EPCOT was an impostor. "I never saw his back." Ms Leslie responded.

After this discovery, all characters were carefully scrutinized for zippers in the back. We are glad to report that Mickey Mouse was not an impostor.

As for the rest of the Leslie family, no other incidents were reported and a great time was had by all.
