Adaptimals is a line of stuffed toys portraying animals which have special physical adaptations to facilitate their survival. Each Adaptimal is crafted with functional parts to represent its adaptation: the gazelle has springs in its legs, allowing it to jump straight into the air; the owl's head turns all the way around with the aid of a caster, and the hedgehog's elastic drawstring and classy golden toggle clasp help it roll up into a ball to protect it from predators. Each Adaptimal comes in a box covered with fun tidbits of educational information about its species. Read Less
