Renovating an old building often comes with surprises, but Vancouver Island woodworkerConnor Nijssenever imagined hed uncover 115 stuffed animals hidden within the walls of his farmhouse.
Nijsse believes the stuffed animals were used as an unconventional form of insulation by the previous owners, but he has no idea where they all came from, or when exactly they were put there.
Although theyd likely been hidden behind the wall for years, all 115 stuffed animals remained in surprisingly good condition, protected by a plastic wrap barrier inside the wall.
The perplexed woodworker shared his strange discovery on social media, and people quickly began reaching out to buy particular plushies from the collection.
A pink elephant was recently sent off to Las Vegas to a person who collects them, and a brown bear filled with beans was sent to a buyer in Indiana who recognized it from her childhood.
Another person from the UK requested two yellow chicks from the pile of plushies, and another woman in South Carolina asked for a plaid bear with blue eyes.
She wrote in hermessage, That was my bear since birth and a moving company lost him a few years back.
