Breathing otter plush toy
The plastic bag of the packaging is too thin. If a child plays with the packaging, the plastic could cover the mouth and nose, causing a risk of suffocation. Moreover, the seams are defective, making the filling accessible. Ingestion of the filling may cause choking. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
