Not an anteater

I'm ridiculously thrilled with the way this has turned out.
It has sound effects too - a Clanger-voice whistle if you chuck it under the chin, and a magic twinkle sound if you tweak the musical note

It looks great! But if it's not an anteater, what is it?

As Sundae said, it's a Clanger.
And Jim, how can you forget?!? I did knit you a cock one year ...

Clangers
Creation of the late, great Oliver Postgate (I referred to his death with sadness when it happened)

Like with Bagpuss, the characters from this children's series have an immediate impact on those of us who grew up from the late '60s until probably the early '80s.

The mellifluous tones you hear are those of Postgate himself.
