Wild Republic Audubon Birds

The original Audubon Plush Birds were produced from the 1990s to the early 2010s, although most of the more obscure birds were produced for far less time and are quite uncommon on the secondhand market. The small versions of the birds from the Birds of Prey series, the first three Backyard Birds series, the Game Birds series, and the small versions of the Mallard, Goose, and Loon from the Water Birds series, remain quite common. Most of these are North American species, but not all of them are. Many don't have feet or legs (even the long-legged wading birds), though the all of the raptors and parrots and some of the corvids, plus a few others, do. Additionally, some squirrels were produced under this line of “birds”, despite them obviously not being birds. It is worth noting that all of the US state birds (including the two domestic chicken breeds; the Rhode Island Red and the Delaware Blue Hen) have been made as plush toys under this series. In fact, in 2011, all of the US states' govenors and senators received Wild Republic Audubon birds for their respective States. Likewise, all of the Canadian provincial and territorial birds (except, possibly the Sharp-tailed Grouse, but see below), have been represented, most of which were released under the Canadian Birds series (see below). The birds in the Tropical Birds, Birds of Prey, and Water Birds series all came in a small size and and a large size (except, apparently, the Cock-of-the-Rock of the Tropical Birds series). The larger ones are a great deal rarer than the smaller ones.
