Online MON AMI Jagger Alligator Stuffed Animal by

Jagger is an alligator stuffed animal built on the friendly side of the species, which is not a given. Most reptile plush leans hard into teeth. This one is made to be hauled around by one leg, which is what actually happens to a plush alligator in a house with children in it.

Length is the useful part. An alligator is one of the few stuffed animals with a shape that stretches, so it lies across the foot of a bed, coils around a toddler on the floor, and reads as a statement piece in a jungle, swamp, or safari nursery rather than one more animal in the heap. A crocodile stuffed animal does the same job, but there are far fewer of them made softly.

It suits jungle and safari birthdays, bayou and swamp themes, first birthdays, and gifts for the kid who has decided that reptiles are their entire personality. It also sits comfortably next to the rest of our jungle party decorations and animal plush toys if you are building a themed shelf.

How do you wash a stuffed animal? Large plush animals are usually spot clean only, since the fill inside takes a very long time to dry after soaking. Surface clean with mild soap and cool water and let the toy air dry fully before it goes back on a bed.
