+### Animation Group Must Be Mounted To Work
+
+In order for it to apply transitions to its children, the `ReactCSSTransitionGroup` must already be mounted in the DOM. The example below would not work, because the `ReactCSSTransitionGroup` is being mounted along with the new item, instead of the new item being mounted within it. Compare this to the [Getting Started](/docs/docs/09.1-animation.md#getting-started) section above to see the difference.

+ <div key={item} onClick={this.handleRemove.bind(this, i)}>
+ <ReactCSSTransitionGroup transitionName="example">
+ {item}
+ </ReactCSSTransitionGroup>
+ </div>
+ );
+ }, this);
+ return (
+ <div>
+ <button onClick={this.handleAdd}>Add Item</button>
+ {items}
+ </div>

 ### Animating One or Zero Items
 
 Although in the example above we rendered a list of items into `ReactCSSTransitionGroup`, the children of `ReactCSSTransitionGroup` can be one or zero items. This makes it possible to animate a single element entering or leaving. Similarly, you can animate a new element replacing the current element, with the new element animating in while the current animates out. For example, we can implement a simple image carousel like this:
