CollectA Alpine Ibex CollectA 80020 Product Dimensions: 8.7 x 9.3 cm Age: 3 years and up Released in NZ: July 2024 The Alpine Ibex, a species of wild goat, is known for its remarkable climbing abilities and is native to the rocky mountain regions of the European Alps. These goats are especially noted for their impressive, backward-curving horns, which can grow up to a meter in males. These horns are not just for show; they play a crucial role in the ibex's social structure and in battles for dominance. Alpine Ibexes have an exceptional ability to scale steep, rocky terrain that would be treacherous for most other animals. This skill helps them access fresh vegetation and evade predators. Remarkably adapted to high-altitude life, the Alpine Ibex is a symbol of the rugged beauty and resilience of alpine ecosystems. Hand painted and highly detailed. Made of durable vinyl. Manufactured from a high quality, non-toxic PVC that passes the quality standards for the Australian/NZ toy industry as well as that of USA and Europe.
