Recognizable by its contrasting black and white plumage, the barnacle goose is a migratory goose that travels long distances each year. It is found in temperate and cold regions of Europe, Asia, and North America, where it frequents lakes, meadows, and wetlands.
Highly social, the goose lives in flocks and moves in a "V" formation during migrations, a strategy that allows it to conserve energy and maintain contact with its fellow birds. Surprisingly, its powerful call is used to coordinate flight and encourage birds at the front of the line. A herbivore, it feeds mainly on grasses, young shoots, and seeds, contributing to the balance of the ecosystems it passes through.
This Papo figurine faithfully recreates the barnacle goose: detailed plumage, long neck, and realistic posture. An ideal model to enrich a collection of farm and wetland animals, invent migratory stories, or educate children about the life of migratory birds.

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.
