Massive and resilient, the musk ox is an iconic animal of the Arctic regions. Covered in thick brown fur that reaches almost to the ground, it is perfectly adapted to the extreme conditions of the Far North, where temperatures can drop well below zero.
A herbivore, it feeds mainly on grasses, lichens, and mosses, which it even finds under the snow. Surprisingly, when threatened by a predator like a wolf, the musk ox adopts a spectacular defense strategy by forming a circle with the rest of the herd, with the adults facing outward to protect the young. Its powerful, curved horns and impressive build make it a formidable opponent.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the musk ox: full fur, robust horns and imposing silhouette. An ideal model to complete a collection of wild animals, invent stories in the icy lands or to educate children about the richness of Arctic wildlife.

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.
