Description
I found this plush dinosaur this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Lincoln Library on Main Street, outside the entrance by the bike racks. It's about 14 inches tall, bright blue fur with an orange belly, and no visible tag. The left paw has a tiny purple heart stitched on, and the tail tip is a bit frayed from play. It looked lonely sitting there, so I picked it up to keep it safe. If this sounds like yours, reach out with the purple-heart-on-paw clue or tell me roughly where you last saw it, and I'll arrange a meet-up to return it.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
