Carefully crafted fur, characteristic tusks, and the figure’s stance help create a convincing impression of an American mastodon and support imagination during play as well as when displayed in a collection.
The figure is a great visual aid for topics of prehistory and nature – children naturally learn through play, storytelling, and discovery.
Thanks to well-thought-out dimensions, the figure is easy to hold, simple to carry, and at the same time stands out on a shelf among other Safari Ltd. animal models.
The American mastodon was a proboscidean that, although it resembled a mammoth and an elephant in appearance, was not a close relative of them according to available information. It was not as large as most mammoths or today’s elephants, and its range was not as widespread. In America it lived roughly 11 thousand years ago – and now you can get a closer look at it thanks to this detailed Safari Ltd. figure.
Safari Ltd. is an American brand focused on producing eco-friendly toys and an educational approach of “learning through play”. Thanks to hand craftsmanship, each piece is unique, and the figure is excellent as a visual aid for children, parents, and educators.
