A cuddly nod to the Ice Age. This soft gray and cream wolf plush is a friendly stand-in for the dire wolf, one of the stars of La Brea Tar Pits.
Dire wolves (Aenocyon dirus) are among the most common mammals found in the Tar Pits, alongside saber-toothed cats and coyotes. Scientists think large animals stuck in the asphalt attracted predators and scavengers, who then became trapped themselves.
About 11.5 inches.
