Intelligent and endearing, the chimpanzee is one of our closest cousins in the animal kingdom. It is recognizable by its expressive face, long arms, and dark fur. Highly social, it lives in organized groups where each member plays an important role in community cohesion.
The baby chimpanzee spends its first months clinging to its mother's belly, before climbing onto her back to accompany her on her travels. Surprisingly, the young learn by imitating adults, whether it's to use tools, search for food, or communicate using various gestures and calls. Family bonds are very strong, and mothers protect and educate their young with great care.
This Papo figurine lovingly and realistically reproduces the chimpanzee and her baby: detailed fur, natural attitudes and lively expressions. An ideal model to enrich a collection of wild animals, invent stories full of adventures or to raise children's awareness of the closeness between humans and great apes.
