What is this? These are small plastic toys shaped like a turtle and an elephant. They have winders and trunks that can come off.

What's happening? The winders and trunks can detach easily. This creates small parts that could be a choking hazard.

Does this affect me? If you have these toys, especially around young children, they may be at risk.

What should I do? Stop using them right away. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you need help finding safe toys.
