That's a real live animal! See Happy Hollow - Fun Photos for the Folks Back Home on the Arcane Arkansas History blog for some more examples of the oxen, donkeys, and horses featured in the souvenir photos at this attraction.

Thanks for the link, Alan. Quite amazing how many sets there were! (And how quirky the whole Amusement Park was!)
