Whio Soft Toy with Sound

$25.00 NZD

The Whio Soft Toy with Sound is an adorable plush version of New Zealand’s native whio, or blue duck.

 

The whio is only found in Aotearoa. It is an iconic back-country species, and it features on the New Zealand $10 note. It is a nationally vulnerable species and faces a risk of becoming extinct.

 

This children’s toy includes some of the blue duck’s iconic features such as its slate blue-grey colouring, chestnut spotting on the breast and yellow eyes. It makes a lovely gift for little ones.
