Hansa Dodo

This Dodo youngster is a small delight.  Made by Hansa Toys and part of the Portraits of Nature series, the real life Dodo is, we are led to believe, extinct - or at least a live one has not been found yet.  The artists employed at Hansa have created this soft toy sculpture of a Dodo youngster in soft plush embellished with subtle and unique hand airbrushing.  The bird is internally wired to add stability and posability. Each Dodo bird comes with it's own hang tag detailing some of the habits and lifestyle of this extinct bird.

Length: 23cm/9in

The Hansa Toy philosophy is to design soft toy sculpture animals, birds and reptiles to not only be authentic and life-like but also cuddly and lovable in the hope to inspire children and (adults!) to love and to learn about wild animals and as a result to encourage a life-long commitment to wildlife conservation.  Hansa have earned a worldwide reputation for creating high quality, safe and affordable products worthy of the special love and attachment that children bestow on their toys.  Hence the Hansa Toys Motto "toys that educate the heart".
