We use the 2-dimensional $\sigma$ model as a toy model to study the behavior of anomalous amplitudes in the limit where the constituent quark mass is small. Symmetry arguments tell that the $\pi^o\to\gamma$ amplitude should vanish if $m\to 0$, but we show that this conclusion is spoiled by infrared singularities. When a proper regularization (resummation of a thermal mass, for instance) is taken into account, this amplitude vanishes as expected. We also study the amplitude $\pi^o\sigma\to\gamma$ and show that it does not vanish in the same limit.
