COULD PLAYING WITH A WOODEN TOY HYRAX BE INTERESTING?
You may not even have heard about it so far. A rock hyrax (dassie / rock rabbit) is sometimes confused with a rabbit, a rat or a guinea pig. Yet, this small animal is most closely related to the elephant and the manatee. Though many Europeans have never heard of it, this creature was mentioned several times in the Old Testament and is well-known in Africa. Some hyraxes have even moved to urban areas, where they are loved and protected by many people. Still, some people eat hyraxes, while others would like to have them as pets as they look so cuddly and funny.
Though always threatened by leopards, snakes, wild dogs (you might wish to check our African collection for these) and caracals, the rock hyrax is the happiest in the wild, climbing rocks and hiding in their crevices, basking in the sun to feel warm, and grazing.
A hyrax is not just a cute animal; it could be used to introduce children to the ideas of food chains and adaptations.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Do not soak in water. Wash each toy separately with soapy water with some vinegar. Rinse as quickly as possible. Immediately dry with a towel. Let air dry.
For disinfection you can use rubbing alcohol. We recommend spiritus aethylicus for medical purposes.
Do not put on or near heaters. Do not keep under direct sunshine for too long. Moisture and heat can cause warping and cracking in wood, so wooden products should not be exposed to these for too long.
When toys feel too dry, they need to be oiled and / or waxed. We recommend linseed oil and beeswax waxes. Other oils and waxes could be used too: mineral oil, jojoba oil, coconut oil. Vegans can use carnauba wax instead of beeswax.
AGE AND SAFETY: CE certified as safe for children 3+

Absolutely cute! This hyrax was well packaged.
I bought this item to turn into a Christmas ornament. Amazing quality and so cute!
A great Xmas gift for a friend, thanks!
It was better than expected. When looking at it head-on, you can see the two prominent Hyrax teeth.
