The Papo Extra Large African Elephant figure stands in a bold and lifelike pose, emphasizing the massive, muscular structure of the African elephant. The textured skin is sculpted to accurately reflect the rough, wrinkled hide typical of elephants, with intricate details in the folds and creases, adding depth and realism. The skin is a little on the shiney side.
The large, fan-like ears are outstretched, a signature feature of the African elephant, helping to display the animal’s ability to cool itself in the wild. The tusks are long, smooth, and slightly curved, embodying both the elegance and strength of the elephant. The trunk is lowered, suggesting movement or interaction with its surroundings, further adding to the dynamic and life-like quality of the figure. The sturdy legs, thick and well-defined, emphasize the immense weight and power this animal holds.
The Papo Extra Large Elephant measures approximately 6.5" tall 10.5" long.
This is an EXTRA LARGE ANIMAL - NOT TO SCALE WITH THE OTHER PAPO ANIMALS.
The African elephant is the largest land animal on Earth, and within this species, there are individuals that grow to an extraordinary size, often referred to as "extra large" elephants. These giants of the savannas and forests can weigh up to 12,000 pounds and stand as tall as 13 feet at the shoulder. Their sheer size grants them dominance in their habitats, but it also places heavy demands on their diet and the environment. An adult elephant can consume up to 300 pounds of vegetation a day, including grass, leaves, bark, and fruit. This constant foraging helps to shape their ecosystems, as they are known to clear trees and create pathways that other animals use.
