Also known as sea elephants, the seals of the genus Mirounga are the largest pinnipeds in the world. Two species have been described. The northern elephant seal (M. angustirostris) and the southern elephant seal (M. leonina). Northerns live in the eastern Pacific Ocean, in the northern hemisphere.

Insects & Spiders Tube (Mojö Fun)
4.7 (6 votes)
After recently reviewing Safari Ltd.’s Insects TOOB and having previously reviewed CollectA’s Mini Insects and Spiders tube, I decided to follow them up with an overview of Mojö Fun’s 2024 Insects & Spiders Tube. I didn’t have high hopes for this set. Promo pics gave the impression of typical bin/dollar store-style cheap insects.
House Sparrow (Enthusiasts Garden Birds Collection by Mojö Fun)
5 (5 votes)
The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) is one of the most widespread, common, and familiar birds. Native to the Palearctic, it now occurs nearly worldwide through human introduction. A highly adaptable species, it can be found in fields, open scrubland, farms, and urban and suburban settings, including parks, gardens, cemeteries, campuses, fairgrounds, and even around bustling metropolises.
Sun Bear (Mojö Woodland by Mojö Fun)
5 (6 votes)
The sun bear (Helarctos malayanus) is the only member of its genus, the world’s smallest bear, the world’s most arboreally adapted bear, and the only bear that specializes in myrmecophagy (consumption of ants and termites). Features like their strong arms, inwardly turned forepaws, and flattened chest aid them in their arboreal lifestyle.
Stoat (Mojö Woodland by Mojö Fun)
4.8 (12 votes)
Also known as the short-tailed weasel and ermine, the stoat (Mustela erminea) has a circumpolar distribution around the northern half of the northern hemisphere in North America and Eurasia. The stoat was also introduced to New Zealand to control rabbit populations but has been wreaking havoc on New Zealand’s bird population.
Humpback Whale (Sealife by Mojö Fun)
4.8 (10 votes)
Although the blue whale is the largest of all baleen whales it seems that the humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) is the most popular, but maybe that’s just my personal assumption after seeing it plastered all over Christian Lassen school supplies in the 90’s. The toy market seems to back up my claim though, with Toy Animal Wiki cataloging several more humpback figures than blue whale.
Tasmanian Devil (Wildlife by Mojö Fun)
5 (7 votes)
With the extinction of the thylacine the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) claimed the title of the largest extant marsupial predator, weighing up the 18 lbs. (8 kg.) in the case of males. Not a terribly impressive size for the largest marsupial predator, I’ve had cats that outweigh the Tasmanian devil!
Beaver (Mojö Woodland by Mojö Fun)
4.5 (12 votes)
During my teenage years I found myself living on a 50-acre farm complete with a creek running through it, fallow fields, and woodlands abutted against vast National Forest land that made the wilderness seem endless. It was the perfect playground for a young lad obsessed with animals and nature. My favorite place to visit amidst all that was the local beaver pond, and I spent many evenings just quietly sitting along the bank of the pond, VHS camcorder in hand, observing wildlife.

An animal of absurd proportions, the giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla) is the largest of the anteater species as well as the largest living member of Xenarthra, a group of placental mammals characterized by fused pelvic bones, spine reinforcing bones, and a peculiar blood vessel structure that allows energy sparing by an extremely low metabolic rate.

Currently, there are more than 200 species of owl inhabiting our planet. They reside on every continent save for Antarctica and range in size from the tiny elf owl to the mighty eagle owl. But if there is one species that can truly be said to represent the owl family as a whole, it is most likely the great horned owl (Bubo virginianus) of the Americas.

Ranging from southern Canada all the way down to Argentina, rattlesnakes are a large group of pit vipers famous and feared for their venom and their rattling tails. Despite their negative reputation, they are in truth important predators of rodents, helping to balance ecosystems and prevent crop damage.
Arctic Wolf (Wild Life by Mojö Fun)
4.5 (13 votes)
Happy holidays to all! I hope this latest post finds you in the holiday spirit, or at the very least an “Arctic animal appreciation” one. This post will focus on the Mojö Fun Arctic wolf #381052 released in 2022. The model itself is the first of its kind for Mojö, having only released one other wolf species, and the most common (read “generic”) of them at that.
