Have You Met the Mango Family?

We have added a group of three Gibbon’s to our collection of plush stuffed animals.  These Gibbon’s are posable plush toys for kids of all ages.

You will love the large 42” Papa Mango as well as the 18 “and 12.5” Baby Mango.  As with all our stuffed toys the Gibbon’s are quality, safe hand-sewn plush toys for your young children.

Gibbons are rare, small, slender, long-armed, tree-dwelling apes. These very acrobatic primates live in Southeast Asia. Gibbons are arboreal; they spend most of their lives in trees.

Gibbons have senses very similar to ours, including hearing, sight (including color vision), smell, taste, and touch.

Gibbons are omnivores (eating plants and meat). They forage for food in the forests during the day, eating fruit (which constitutes about 75% of their diet), leaves, flowers, seeds, tree bark, and tender plant shoots. They also eat insects, spiders, bird eggs, and small birds.

Gibbons drink water, often by dipping a furry hand into the water or rubbing a hand on wet leaves, and then slurping up the water from their fur. Gibbons sometimes do this while dangling above the water from a thin tree branch.
