Schleich tapir calf 14851

. Which fruit comes to mind when you see our Schleich® WILD LIFE tapir calf? Exactly! With its stripes and spots, it resembles a watermelon. But that funny pattern disappears when it grows up. Instead, the little glutton becomes a lot heavier. When it's fully grown, your trunk-nosed friend will be almost as heavy as a horse. Wow. Quite a weight. But also very useful. Because if the tapir leans against a tree, it will fall over. This way, when the tapir calf is grown, it can also reach the tastiest fruits hanging way up in the tree. Truly an amazing animal! But until it's grown, it prefers to lean against your backpack. Not to knock it over, though. Just because it's so cozy.
