The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said the satin seam of the stuffed animal can open and expose the stuffing material, posing a choking hazard for young children.

The stuffed animals are covered in a blue furry fabric with silver satin tummy, feet pads, wings and horns. The horns light up and the toys make a musical sound when the hand is squeezed.

Tracking labels ending with 9333 or 9334 for USA and 9337 or 9459 for Canada can be found sewn on the backside of the stuffed animal's leg.

No injuries have been reported.

Consumers can return the recalled stuffed animals to any Build-A-Bear Workshop store to receive a coupon for any Build-A-Bear stuffed animal.
