Today in discarded deer taxidermy mounts on 2nd Avenue

As seen this evening on Second Avenue and Seventh Street. Per EVG reader Samir Randeria, who shared the photo: "Saw two guys pick it up together and take it further east ... with great excitement."

Noting

Always seems that people only discard large stuffed bears on warm days. 

Thanks to the EVG reader for this photo on Third Street between Avenue A and Avenue B

It's hot out

NYC is under a heat advisory today.

Per the Weather Channel: "Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place with air conditioning. Check on vulnerable friends, family members, neighbors and stuffed bears."

Abandoned slice of stuffed pizza doesn't seem to mind being abandoned

Meant to post these photos earlier… they are from last night on Avenue B near East 11th Street. We do not know what happened here… but based on the pizza's goofy grin in the top photo, all seems to be well (all things considered)…

Anyway, not nearly as sad as abandoned stuffed teddy bears…

Free monkey business

Spotted on Avenue A near East 14th Street this morning by stickmanpk.

Not sure if this is such a good strategy by Fresh Direct — expanding their offerings while, at the same time, giving the stuff away.

Another day, another stuffed bear heartlessly discarded on an East Village Street

Who in the duck would do this?

Wow. The fact that someone would do this to a stuffed animal is even worse than that headline.

This is via @edenbrower, who has requested an exorcism here at the lovely Saint Stanislaus Bishop And Martyr Roman Catholic Church on East Seventh Street.

And this is not the first time mischief makers have made mischief here.

Meanwhile, on East Ninth Street...

Likely a perfectly logical explanation for this.

Headless giraffe makes another baffling appearance around 5th and B

As we understand it, there have been numerous recent sightings of this headless stuffed giraffe around the vicinity of East Fifth Street and Avenue B... the creature, who desperately needs a nickname, a branding campaign and more social media exposure (for starters, at the least), was spotted last night outside Bloom 62, Ben Shaoul's nursing home-turned upscale rental.

The headless stuffed giraffe likely represents the duality of man, though, as of our press time, that hadn't been confirmed.

Heartless acts: Down-on-its-luck stuffed animal unstuffed, stuffed in trash

We noted this rather sad scene yesterday at Cooper Union... along the East Sixth Street side...

Flashback!

Well, prepare yourself for this. Spotted in the trash outside Sunny & Annie's on Avenue B and East Sixth Street this morning...
