This animal should really be called a "gliding" squirrel since it can only glide from spot to spot and cannot truly fly. But with its "wings" it can glide up to 60 feet! The large, soft, realistic replica is accurately hand painted and all Safari Ltd.® replicas are phthalate-free and thoroughly safety tested to safeguard your child's health. The Flying Squirrel is 7" L x 4.75" H [18 x 12 cm]. Suggested age 3+
