Get ready, because the Beanie Baby craze is about to begin again! Chicago based plush-toy maker Ty has created a "Cecil the Lion" Beanie Baby in order to raise funds for the Wildlife Conservation Research Unit.

 

Ty company's founder and chairman, Ty Warner, said:

Hopefully, this special Beanie Baby will raise awareness for animal conservation and give comfort to all saddened by the loss of Cecil."

 

The "Cecil the Lion" Beanie Baby will hit stores nationwide at the end of September, and will cost $5.99.

Thank you, Ty for your constant support of animal rights.
