But the Vol-in-Law pointed out the label said it was a donkey. And VolMom left a comment on Shambo’s photographic portrait in my Flick account:

Can you believe I was once in receipt of an Agricultural scholarship? But we didn’t cover livestock toys in Ag 101. Maybe I’ve just had too many years of city life, trapped like a goose in a pen.
