With its immense dark body and calloused head, the right whale is one of the ocean's most distinctive cetaceans. It is found primarily in temperate and cold waters, where it moves slowly along the surface.
Surprisingly, the right whale owes its name to a sad historical reputation. Its slowness, natural buoyancy after death, and rich oil content once made it "easy" to hunt, which brought it to the brink of extinction. Now protected, it remains a rare and endangered species. Like the blue whale, it feeds mainly on plankton and small crustaceans, which it filters through its baleen. Its powerful breath, projected in a V-shape, makes it recognizable from afar.
This Papo figurine faithfully recreates the right whale: massive silhouette, skin details and realistic proportions. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories on the high seas or raise children's awareness of the protection of endangered species.

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.
