He's alpaca, as in actual alpaca skin. lol They have such a lot of them over there, that when the alpacas die from natural causes, they use their skin to make all kinds of stuffed animals, wall hangings, throw rugs, etc. I have a small 15" bear, but he's not the best quality- his "wool" is sort of rough and thin in places. But he has sentimental value. bear_original I'd love to have this huge fellow, but he's just too expensive. I should take the advice that I found on another forum: "Buy fewer, but better." bear_happy
