Schleich Kangaroo

The word “kangaroo” comes from the indigenous people of Australia! These marsupials have a kind of rubber band in their hind legs. It propels them upwards with each jump. The faster a kangaroo bounces, the farther the animal is “catapulted” forwards, and the less energy it consumes. Even though it can achieve a breathtaking speed of 64 km/h, there is one thing it cannot do: walk backwards. Schleich manufacture amazingly wonderful accurate models of all sorts of animals, including this Kangaroo model. This Schleich Kangroo model has been beautifully hand painted to give wonderful role play to children and also makes a great collectors item for the nature enthusiast.
