Did you know? Giant Anteaters can grow to EIGHT FEET long! Their front claws are like knives, in fact, they are so long and sharp they have to walk on their knuckles! Their tongue is ridiculous, it’s TWO feet long and covered with spines! They have NO teeth. They pull their food into their mouths and swallow it whole! A Giant Anteater can eat 30,000 insects EACH day! Overall, they are super interesting creatures and now YOU can have one of your very own (real ones are quite dangerous, you don’t want one of those for a pet). Luckily, Andy is one of the few Giant Anteaters who love humans. He wishes he had a friend to cuddle and call his own!

He is a beginner to intermediate level guy and can be made by anyone with Amigurumi experience who is looking to learn some new techniques! As always, I am here for unlimited support if you have any questions!
