Zebus

 The Zebus
The zebu was introduced in 1909 with the Teddy Roosevelt sets. Since it is not a popular circus animal, no large numbers were sold and are uncommon. No decal eyes versions have been found.

Glass eyes

The glass eyes zebu features leather horns and ears, and a twisted cord tail.

Painted eyes

Except for the eyes, the painted eyes version is very similar to the glass eyes version.
