Schleich - Zebra Female

The Schleich Female Zebra figurine is a beautifully crafted, hand-painted replica of a zebra that showcases the unique black and white striped coat, which helps zebras thrive in the African Savannah. Known for their distinctive stripes, zebras use their unique patterns for camouflage, to protect themselves from mosquitoes, and to regulate their body temperature. This figurine captures the elegance and beauty of these majestic creatures and is perfect for imaginative play. It allows children to engage with the animal world while learning about animal patterns and behaviours.
