A recall was issued for 64,000 alpaca toys because these items pose a choking hazard for children.

The Inkari Plush Alpaca Toys are for kids under three years old, but the eyes can detach, which the Consumer Product Safety Commission said in a Nov. 6 recall letter that the toy violates a small parts ban, which could cause the choking risk.
