CollectA Wildlife Pygmy Hippopotamus Calf Toy Figure - Authentic Hand Painted Model
FUN FACT: The behavior of the pygmy hippo differs from the common hippo in many ways. Much of its behavior is more similar to that of a tapir.
EXPERT DESIGN: CollectA has enlisted the help of experts from around the world to ensure that every model is factually accurate and true to life, so little ones get to learn while they play.
SAFETY: All CollectA products are individually hand crafted with only the finest materials and rigorously tested to ensure they meet the highest safety standards.
EDUCATIONAL VALUE: CollectA's mission is to build "a natural world in miniature". Using role play, children gain a deeper knowledge of the animals. Excellent for educational purposes and for use in dioramas, pretend habitat scenes, or other displays.
PRODUCT SPECS: The 2.3" L x 1.5'' H Wildlife Pygmy Hippopotamus calf is realistic and lifelike in every detail, from its 4 stubby legs to the skin folds in its portly frame. Makes a great compliment to CollectA's Pygmy Hippopotamus (88686) sold separately.
The pygmy hippo is reclusive and nocturnal. The pygmy hippo is herbivorous, feeding on ferns, broad-leaved plants, grasses and fruits it finds in the forests. Much like its larger cousin, it is semi-aquatic and relies on proximity to water to keep its skin moisturized and its body temperature cool. Collect A is known as one of the leading manufacturers worldwide of the finest scaled replicas collections. These products are of the highest quality in both sculpture and painting. They design their replicas to provide both, knowledge and entertainment to children and parents of all age groups. Today Collect A miniature replicas collectibles are being used in role play for educational purpose, awareness of endangered species, consciousness of environmental protection and ultimately having a benefit for the animals they represent.
