The Schleich Proboscis Monkey captures one of the world's most unusual primates, featuring the distinctive oversized nose of the adult male and realistic sculpting inspired by this remarkable species from the rainforests of Borneo.
The Schleich Proboscis Monkey measures: 3.8" L x 1.1" W x 1.8" H.
This Schleich Proboscis Monkey accurately portrays the species' unique appearance with its long nose, rounded belly, and long tail. The realistic sculpting captures the relaxed posture and characteristic facial expression, while the hand-painted finish highlights the monkey's reddish-brown coat, pale underparts, and distinctive facial features.
The detailed sculpt and lifelike proportions make this figure an excellent addition to wildlife collections, zoo displays, rainforest scenes, and educational projects focused on endangered species.
Proboscis monkeys are found only on the island of Borneo, where they inhabit mangrove forests, riverbanks, and lowland rainforests. Adult males are famous for their unusually large noses, which scientists believe help attract females and amplify vocal calls used during social interactions.
These highly social primates live in groups and spend much of the day feeding on leaves, seeds, fruits, and young shoots. They are excellent swimmers, often crossing rivers by leaping into the water, and their partially webbed feet help them move efficiently through their watery habitat.
