Product Description

Get up close to wildlife with the Papo Black rhinoceros figurine. It will enchant young and old alike with its realism and high level of detail. Papo figurines are hand-painted and designed to provide children with a great medium for play and imagination. Nothing is left to chance: correct postures and morphology, faithful reproduction of the animal's main characteristics. The black rhino is a relatively imposing animal, the largest males can measure up to 3.50m and weigh up to 1500kg! It is distinguished from other rhino breeds, not by its color which is the same as that of a white rhino (for example), but by the shape of its skull, more stocky, as well as the presence of two deeply anchored horns . Solitary in nature, it only moves at nightfall and only rubs against its congeners during the breeding period. If the latter has a very good sense of smell and fine hearing, you should know that he is, however, almost blind and struggles to distinguish the forms beyond 20m. The West African black rhino has been declared extinct since 2011.
