With its white coat and obvious smile, the beluga is one of the most recognizable cetaceans in the Arctic seas. Also called the "canary of the sea," it owes this nickname to the wide variety of sounds it makes to communicate.
Surprisingly, unlike most whales, the beluga whale lacks a dorsal fin, allowing it to crawl under the ice. Highly sociable, it lives in groups called "herds" that can number several hundred individuals. Opportunistic, it feeds on fish, squid, and crustaceans, which it hunts in the icy waters thanks to its excellent echolocation skills.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the beluga: slender body, immaculate color and meticulous details. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories in the polar seas or to educate children about the incredible adaptations of Arctic cetaceans.

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.
