The strange-looking Macrauchenia seems like a cross between a llama and an elephant. It lived in South America during the last Ice Age roughly 10,000 years ago. The nostrils of Macrauchenia are situated on the top of its skull, suggesting that it likely possessed a short trunk. Recent studies into Macrauchenia samples have found that they are hoofed animals. The first fossils were discovered by Charles Darwin in Patagonia in 1834 and were incorrectly assumed to be a type of Mastodon. Darwin was not an expert on the subject of paleontology, so it wasn't until the remains were examined by Sir Richard Owen that the animal was described more accurately as a slender, llama-like animal. Like all Safari Ltd products, this figurine has been individually hand painted, features quality construction from phthalate and lead-free materials, and includes an educational hangtag in 5 languages. Realistic, educational, and fun, this figurine is suitable for a range of interests, including collectors, enthusiasts, teachers, and kids. Admire it on a shelf, use it in the classroom, or simply enjoy playing with it. This figure is 5 inches long and 3 Â½ inches tall, or about the size of a small index card. Its coat is a light brown, with white patches on its underside, around its eyes, and inside its ears. Its face, feet, and the tip of its tail are a dark brown, and its toes are a light gray.
