Description

This nearly new toy set is in excellent condition with the original packaging. Having only been used as a display model, there is some wear on the packaging, but it remains unopened. Although many deserts are scorching hot and lack rainfall, various forms of wildlife manage to thrive there. This Toob contains figurines of a horned lizard, budding saguaro cactus, roadrunner, scorpion, rattlesnake, coyote, bighorn ram, bobcat, armadillo, mountain lion, and prairie dog. Because deserts are incredibly challenging environments for both animals and plants, species that inhabit these areas require special adaptations to survive. For example, plants like the cacti included in this Toob are often resilient, featuring few to no leaves and deep root systems. Conversely, many animals in the desert are nocturnal, emerging at night when temperatures drop. While it may not be their natural habitat, we’re sure the animals in this Toob would appreciate a stay in your home, away from the heat and with plenty of water to drink! Professionally sculpted for true-to-life accuracy, these figurines are excellent for imaginative play, educational purposes, or as additions to a diorama or collection. Best of all, with our Toob, you don’t have to endure the desert’s intense heat to observe and interact with its incredible wildlife! The figures in this set serve as excellent Montessori toys for lessons about animals and the various habitats they inhabit. Measuring 1.5 inches in length, 1.5 inches in width, and 12.8 inches in height, this Toob is slightly larger than the size of a standard American ruler and contains 11 figurines that range from 1.25 to 3.75 inches tall. Like all Safari products, these are non-toxic and BPA-free.
