The Papo Running Cheetah Figurine is a meticulously hand-painted, 12.5 cm collectible toy that captures the fastest land animal in dynamic motion.

## Description

The Running Cheetah from Papo is a hand-painted figure depicting the world’s fastest land mammal captured in motion. Sculpted with long legs, a slim torso, and dynamic posture, it measures 12.5 x 3.5 x 6.8 cm and highlights key features like black tear lines and spotted fur. This model helps children aged 3 and up understand cheetah adaptations, such as acceleration, camouflage, and their role as top predators in African savannas. The figure also teaches life cycle facts, like cub weight at birth and the camouflage mane that disappears after three months. Made from durable plastic and hand-painted for realism, it integrates into Papo’s La Vie Sauvage collection, working alongside prey and predator figures for storytelling, education, and ecological awareness
