Foaled in 1949, the gelding was trained by Will Rogers ' protégé, Les Hilton. He was born in the Los Angeles area but sources disagree as to whether his birthplace was in El Monte or at Harvester Farms in Chatsworth, California. In 1968, two years after the cancellation of Mister Ed, at the age of 19, Bamboo began to suffer from a variety of age related ailments, including kidney problems and arthritis. He was euthanized in 1970. A second palomino horse, which had posed for still pictures used in press kits for the show, survived until 1979. After Bamboo Harvester 's death in 1970, the second horse was unofficially known as Mister Ed.

In 1970 he was euthanized with no publicity, and buried at Snodgrass Farm in Oklahoma. However, a different version was given by Alan Young. Young wrote that he had frequently visited his former co-star in retirement. He states that Mr. Ed died from an inadvertent tranquilizer administered while he was `` in retirement '' in a stable in Burbank, California, where he lived with his trainer Lester Hilton. Young says Hilton was out of town visiting relatives and a temporary care giver might have seen Ed rolling on the ground, struggling to get up. Young said Ed was a heavy horse and he was not always strong enough to get back on his feet without struggling. The theory is that the caregiver thought the horse was in distress and administered a tranquilizer and for unknown reasons the horse died within hours. The remains were cremated and scattered by Hilton in the Los Angeles area at a spot known only to him. A different horse that died in Oklahoma in February 1979 was widely thought to be Bamboo Harvester, but this horse was one that posed for the still pictures of `` Mr. Ed '' used by the production company for the show 's press kits. After Bamboo Harvester 's death in 1970, this horse was unofficially known as Mister Ed, which led to him being reported as such ( including sardonic comments on Saturday Night Live 's Weekend Update ) following his own death. Young said when the Oklahoma horse death story came out in 1979, he knew it was not the real Mr. Ed, but did not have the heart to `` shatter their illusions '' that the horse being memorialized was not the real Mr. Ed. He believes it was a horse used for early publicity photos. The real Bamboo Harvester was laid to rest in 1970, on the farm at Snodgrass Farm in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, with no marker. It was n't until summer 1990, ' Mr. Ed ' fans of Oklahoma dedicated a standing granite gravestone to honor the grounds of his grave, though the epitaph uses his stage name and image as ' Mr. Ed ', and does not mention his death date of 1970.
