Br'er Owl is a character that was first introduced in the Uncle Remus comics.
Then the imagineering team created a animatronic of the character for Splash Mountain in Tokyo Disneyland.
Background[]
It can be said of Br'er Owl, as it can be said of many critters of stretching the truth somewhat. Perhaps that, and not the cave's size, is why his home is called as it is. But if ever there's any one critter in all of this country, that knows the comings and goings of those who live in and know about Splash Mountain, he's the one that knows what's what.
Development[]
Due to the success of the Splash Mountain attraction at Disneyland, Splash Mountain was later constructed at Frontierland at Magic Kingdom and Critter Country Tokyo Disneyland respectively, the imagineering team created the owl animatronic.
Role in the attraction[]
Br'er Owl can be seen in the tunnels of Critter Cave, where guests are in the line for the attraction of Splash Mountain, just before guests enter the loading area.
