The fuzzy dolls are inspired by animals both legendary and real. Whether it is a lion, monkey or a yeti, Entala hits the nail on the head when it comes to these [cute and offbeat designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deddy-bears). Each of the toys wears a dopey, sloth-like expression, which is not a bad thing considering many people's fondness for sloths. Owing both to their aesthetics and to the simple fact that they are essentially [teddy bears](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-teddy-kumma), these products have wide appeal.
