This strangely cute animal with his toy was the “photo of the day” at Nothing to do with Arbroath. It was identified by a Heavenly Jane, a commenter at Scribal Terror as a baby sifaka {wiki), native to Madagascar. But Craig C had a better idea:

It’s a Bug-Eyed Blackfaced Plushy-Hugger. They’re native to carnivals throughout the Deep South. Their diet consists of stale popcorn, peanuts, and the stuff that sticks to the sides of candy cotton machines. Late at night when the carnies are packing up, you can hear their plaintive cries of “M-m-m-m-yyyy plushie! M-m-m-m-yyyy plushie!”

    I’m still trying to figure out why the dog toy has zippers on its ears.
