For those who haven't read the stoat's description, 'the stoat can by easil-y told from the weasel, by the simple fact that the tail is blacked, and the figure is slightly the bigger'. So yes, this one is definitely a weasel! A jolly gorgeous soft toy weasel too, positively de-luxe; good size and colours, stands well. Lovely wholesome item. 12 inches 30cm tall.
