After polar bears, Grizzlies are the world’s second largest bears. Because of their height and their aggressive behaviour, they are considered as very dangerous in their home, North America.  Grizzlies are tall, strong animals – they stand up to 2.4 metres high and weigh around 450 kilograms. They have sort of a hump on their back and strong hind limbs.  Grizzly bears are able to run up to 55 kilometres per hour.  They are loners and frequently behave aggressively.  Sometimes they gather at waters to catch salmon.  Since they are omnivores, these bears feed on fish, plants and large mammals like moose, deer and black bears. They are also known to steal food from wolves or humans.

Fun fact:  Grizzlies are the largest bears in North America.

Schleich products are made of various plastics and dyes, which are carefully selected to meet the respective requirements.  Most typically plastics used are polyvinyl chloride (PVC), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), in addition to other plastics typical for toys.  Even the material suppliers are subject to strict controls by our quality officers. The dyes used are optimally adapted to the different types of plastic and demonstrate top-rate mechanical and chemical resistance.  They ensure the high durability of Schleich products and make all Schleich pieces saliva and sweat proof as well as abrasion-resistant, and thus ensure that they are completely safe for playing with. Only once a product meets fully all international laws, standards and guidelines for toys is it released for production.  All Schleich articles and materials comply with the national and international toy requirements applicable worldwide, as well as the new European Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC and DIN EN 71. 

Recommended for 3+.

We love Schleich's realistic animal figures, a quality toy that stimulates the child's imagination as well as teaching them about animals and wildlife.
