Safari - Goliath Grouper

The Goliath Grouper is the perfect addition to your collection, ready to swim in an imaginary ocean animal adventure!

From the Safari Range: Incredible Creatures® collection

Size: Large - 14cm Long

Endemic to the tropical waters and coral reefs of the Florida Keys, Bahamas, Caribbean, and Brazil, the goliath grouper is massive saltwater fish. They can grow as large as 8 feet long and weigh over 800 pounds, although on average they weigh around 400 pounds.

Unfortunately, the Atlantic variant of the goliath grouper is classified as a critically endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Like many threatened marine species, they suffer from a loss and degradation of their natural habitat. They are also sometimes affected by commercial fishing, where they end up as bycatch. The good news is that goliath groupers were recently successfully bred in captivity, providing hope for their future.

 This awesome aquatic figurine is a wonderful gift for an aspiring marine biologist! Despite their intimidating size, goliath groupers are quite gentle, and rarely pose a threat to humans.

Animal Figurines make the best addition to Small World Play & Sensory Play Tray activities. Create a scene along with some Sensory Fluff, Sensory Magic Sand, Pluffle, Coloured Rice, Water-beads or fizzy play! (all available & sold separately)
