With its streamlined black and white body, the baby orca is a miniature replica of one of the largest marine predators. At birth, it already measures nearly 2.5 meters and weighs around 200 kilos, entirely dependent on its mother's care.
Surprisingly, the young orca is breastfed for over a year, thanks to milk that is very rich in fat, which allows it to grow quickly. Highly sociable, it learns essential behaviors by observing the adults in its group, called a "pod." From its first months, it develops a great curiosity about its environment and already communicates through characteristic sounds, specific to its clan.
This Papo figurine faithfully recreates the baby orca: black and white contrast, detailed fins and realistic silhouette. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories at the heart of the oceans or educate children about the life of young cetaceans.
