Leaving her den in early spring
So very hungry, she’ll eat anything
Nuts, fruits, berries and fish
Mixed together makes a great dish!

Almond the Bear was introduced on 1st May 1999 along with Pecan the Bear.
Almond is made from a lighter coloured material than Pecan, who is more of a medium brown colour.
A Beanie Buddy version was made of Almond in 2000, but this was retired within a month’s time of it’s introduction.
She was retired on 23rd December 1999.
Item Special Note
Ken and Phyllis Hoy have owned this collection of Beanie Babies since they were released in stores during the 90's and early 2000's. They have been stored safely since they were purchased, with plastic tag covers protecting each of the TY heart tags, so they are in 100% like-new condition.
