ID help needed - Giraffe, Kangaroo or other?

Hi! I have a silly little question here but I am stumped so would appreciate any opinions!

 

I want to sell this Blankets & Beyond security blanket but for the life of me have no idea what animal this is?

 

I can only find one like it on google and the seller is calling it a Giraffe, but I am thinking more Kangaroo?  Or what the heck animal is it?

 

Thanks so much, I do sell alot of these Loveys to appreciative buyers who's children have either misplaced or destroyed them so I find it is important to describe them properly to help them be sought out Cat Happy

Hello 'alycat', 

Oh good, a fun question. Smiley Happy

The head shape and ears would have me think a donkey, yet the nose and nostrils remind me of an anteater. 

The long neck, however, and perhaps with the 'stand up' ears, would definitely suggest a giraffe.  

 

A giraffe is a popular animal in children's items so I would say go with that.  Are you not able to say in the body 

of the listing that you think it could be a kangaroo?  

 

Do you suppose the animal appears so indistinct so that whatever animal the child prefers, well, this could be it, 

then, couldn't it.

Or what about a horse?  If you are listing zoological possibilities in your description, -- couldn't be a horse?

I thought horse as well. Don't giraffes have two little horn type things just in front of their ears?

*laffs* Smiley Very Happy  Yes, that's true, but I'm not sure how those could be sewn in or on.  For the matter of that, 

this one has no mane either.  

 

It appears as much an escapee from the island of Doctor Moreau. Smiley LOL

Thank u!!!!!

 

Thanks so so much for your inputs,

I appreciate u letting me pick your brains with this (lol) animated-thinking-smiley-image-0029

 

It does look like all of the suggested! Long neck like a giraffe (females don't have the horns), and yes Horse!!!


When googling Blankets & Beyond Horse Security Blanket, I found a few of the exact blanket !  So giraffe and horse are my tops.  I am also going to use all 80 characters in my title and fit Kangaroo in there too since it is a beloved zoo animal.

 

One seller described it as a dinosaur (?) - I think that's pushing the envelope a bit, lol.

 

 

"Blankets & Beyond Blue Yellow Polka Dots Plush Horse Giraffe Kangaroo Security Lovey"  will be my title.

 

Really just trying to "think like a buyer" particularly a parent, how they would they describe it for a search.

 

cheers

I may be way off but I immediately thought it looked like a baby dinosaur.
