I'm surprised they were allowed a stuffed bear if laws are so strict.
I often advised customers buying baby gifts for Muslim colleagues to avoid anything with depictions of animals on (ie blankets with little rabbits stitched on, or ducks). It wasn't so much the couple who might protest but the Great Aunties and Grandmothers. In Islam you are not allowed to depict any living creature so as not to raise the issue of idolatry - Saudi Arabian street art is all quite abstract for example. This an extend to some toys, if they represent real animals.
