If you have visited here, you might enjoy a photo of the "headless" Babe, which occurred during several months of 2008 after the water-soaked cement head crashed to the ground.
The holly wreath stayed up till the new replacement came for the ox.

Paul Bunyan and Headless Babe The Blue Ox. During the fierce storms of November, Babe the Blue Ox lost his head. Happily his head was rebuilt and recently replaced.

On the way home from Oregon on our spring break my boyfriend and I almost drove past Paul! But how is that possible? Babe's head is gone and covered with a blue tarp but Paul Bunyan stands tall and proud.

There are news reports that the head fell off the giant Babe the Blue Ox statue at Trees of Mystery yesterday. It's being blamed on rain damage that has rotted the internal support, causing the head to peel off and fall snout down onto the paved walkway next to the parking lot.
The attraction plans to restore the statue. When we asked if they really expected to have Babe repaired by Christmas 2007, the folks at Trees of Mystery answered with an emphatic "Definitely!"
