Of course. However, for this set the source of the inventory was Set Box/Picture
and the inventory was completed in the spring of 2007 by Admin. Many of the
inventories from around this time by this submitter have been shown to be incorrect
in various ways.
Yes, my changes are based on guesswork, too. However, my guesswork has a bit
more evidence and I'll wager that this set inventory is now more accurate
than it was yesterday.

Found it. There was a red 2 x 6 brick shown on the parts list which did not
appear in the inventory. I added it directly and now the part count matches
the part count printed on the label.

If 1980s train sets came with these handy guides, then you'd be doing it,
too. 
I'm merely going after the low hanging fruit while you seem to have a fondness
for Sisyphean tasks.

| Checking the photo of the back of the box for an inventory change is kind of
cheating! You may try to find photos of a sealed copy
or travel to the past and speak with a manager of TLG!

The first photo is the parts list. The second is a close-up of the original
1991 set bucket label showing the animals included in the set. They were all
the newer style with black/white eyes. As with other changes for this set, this
has also been seen in used copies of the set.
