    Description

    The
    Unimal
    was a curious mascot for animal agriculture created by a
    Cornell
    University professor
    in 1950. The Unimal was a hybrid creature consisting of five different farm animals: cow, steer, pig, sheep, and chicken. To educate children about animal agriculture and animal-derived foods, the Unimal was produced as a toy in 1951. W
    hen the toy's front legs are gently pressed down, tiny food products drop out of it: milk, butter, hotdog, ham, and egg. Please note that this auction only includes the milk, ham, hotdog, and egg -- we lost the butter! Unimal toy still works fine, although it no longer rings a bell when laying a food product. Also, as you can see in photos, one wing has broken off. When reloading the "abdominal food chamber", the toy must be held right side up in one hand and the food product placed in the chamber with your other hand while pressing down on the front legs. A little tricky to load, but it DOES work! Measures 3.5" long x 2" wide x 3.5" high.
