Description

Hansatoy, also known as Hansa Creation, is the world’s largest manufacturer of plush animals in 1:1 scale from sparrows to giant elephants.
The program consists of more than 3000 different animals. (However, we “only” have about 400 animals in stock in Denmark)
Hansa animals look so much like the real ones that you often can’t tell the difference from meters away.

The animals are used both privately, but also extensively by companies and institutions as eye-catchers in exhibitions, at trade fairs, etc.

Companies like Coca Cola, 20th Century Fox and many others use HansaCreation in marketing and film

All animals are handmade, using between 5 and 20 different materials for each animal.

About the real Bongo:

The bongo(Tragelaphus eurycerus) is a large, shy antelope that lives in dense forests in Central and West Africa. It is found in tropical rainforests and mountain forests where it seeks shelter among the trees.

The bongo is nocturnal and feeds on leaves, bark, fruits and herbs. It is not a predator, but a herbivore that plays an important role in the ecosystem by spreading seeds.

Females live in small groups, while males are often solitary. The mating season varies, but the gestation period is approximately 9.5 months.

Its main threats are habitat destruction and illegal hunting. The eastern bongo in Kenya is critically endangered and conservation projects are working to ensure its survival in the wild.

It is one of the most modern factories in the country with decent conditions.
