Do you know that it is partly because of its food that the flamingo's plumage is pinkish? It feeds mainly on aquatic invertebrates, as well as their larvae and eggs. We especially find crustaceans including salina artemia rich in carotenes which contribute to the pink colour of its plumage. The pink flamingo is the most widespread species of flamingo. It walks its long and elegant silhouette in lagoons and salt lakes. Its beak, unique among birds, allows it to evacuate the salt contained in the water which passes through it. The flamingo sleeps standing on one or two legs, its head hidden under a wing.Wild Animal Kingdom - Visit majestic white-tailed deer in the heart of the forests, explore the savannah alongside the mighty Sumatran tiger or climb snow-capped peaks to look for the snow leopard.

Childhood is a time of dreams and adventures, and this was what we had in mind when we decided to create, invent, innovate with a wide range of animals or characters. One constant factor which has not changed over the years is quality (the quality of the sculptures and of the materials used) which has always been our watchword and will remain so.Warning To Be Used Under Direct Adult Supervision.
