Red Squirrel - Eco Soft Toy

(Code: KL20)

OUT OF STOCK

Please order in multiples of 3

Made from 100% recycled plastic fabrics, recycled glass beans and a recycled sew in label. 14 water bottles create enough fibre to make a 25cm soft toy. The bottles are shredded, crushed and melted to create yarn which is woven to create the base fabric.

The making of these beautiful toys has helped to recycle and repurpose more than 100 million water bottles. Considering many of the animals in this range have been affected by the manufacture and disposal of plastic, we think this is an amazing way to break the harmful cycle and raise awareness at the same time!

With a huge fluffy tail and soft white belly, this plush squirrel is the perfect gift for fans of our native fauna - or for yourself! It even has the red squirrel’s trademark tufted ears.

When grey squirrels from North America escaped captivity in the late 1800s, they rapidly decimated the native red squirrel population. These days, while there are millions of grey squirrels, there are only around 120,000 little red squirrels left in the UK, mostly concentrated into a few areas where grey squirrels were unable to spread to. Most people alive today might never have seen one before!

Approximate size: 20cm
