Aquatic and colorful, the red-eared slider turtle is one of the most well-known turtle species. Native to North America, it lives in rivers, ponds, and swamps, where it alternates between long swimming sessions and resting in the sun on the banks.
Easily recognizable by the red spot behind its eyes, the red-eared slider turtle is an omnivorous reptile that feeds on both plants and small aquatic animals. Surprisingly, it can hold its breath for over half an hour underwater and sometimes hibernates buried in mud during the winter. Introduced to Europe, it is now monitored because it can compete with local species.
This Papo figurine realistically recreates the Florida slider turtle: finely detailed shell, webbed feet, and expressive head. An ideal model to enrich a collection of wild animals, invent aquatic stories, or educate children about the diversity of the reptile world.

Once Upon a Time There was Papo
For almost 25 years now, Papo has been helping children to grow and to discover the world around them. Childhood is a time of dreams and adventures, and this was what we had in mind when we decided to create our first princesses, princes, dragons and knights. Thanks to the originality of its products and the extreme care taken with product quality and safety, Papo has won children and parents over the years. Papo is now a reference in the world of model figures and continues to develop new ranges to inspire the imaginations of children all around the world. In an age of mass consumption and throwaway goods, Papo continues to produce fine quality toys that last over time and can be passed on from generation to generation.
