Hansa is respected the world over for its finely crafted collection of our planets animal kingdom. Originally created for exclusive European collectors, each plush animal is meticulously handcrafted from portraits of real animals in their natural habitat. Hansa's goal is to help educate children and adults alike, about the natural lives of these magnificent creatures, and to understand, respect and appreciate the importance of our co-existence with all animals. Each animal comes with a "Toys that Teach" tag describing in detail the animal's habitat, lifestyle, gestation period, care of their young and eating habits.

Significant research goes into reproducing every animal species. Each and every animal produced is hand finished by Hansas artists to create each with their very own unique personality (just as in real life).
