Latek Safari Ltd. - Bernie

Bernie the Gator is not just any alligator - he's a friend to all animals, a protector of nature, and the proud mascot of Safari Ltd. Known for championing knowledge, creativity, and conservation, Bernie's story started in Elberfeld, Germany. His journey took him to the United States, where he settled in South Florida, the “Home of the Alligator”. In the 1940s, Bernie met his wife Rosemarie, and together they devoted their lives to education and conservation. In 1982, they founded Safari Ltd, creating Toys That Teach to help others learn about the wonderful natural world. The Safari Ltd. Bernie the Gator figurine brings Bernie's story to life. At 5.5 inches long and 1.5 inches tall, this figurine has friendlier features and softer edges than our usual ultra-accurate offerings, reflecting Bernie's warm and caring nature. Made from high-quality, non-toxic, and BPA-free PVC, the Bernie figurine is part of the Wild Safari Wildlife collection, underscoring our commitment to education and conservation. Through our toys, we inspire children to explore and respect the beauty of nature.
