Soft Buffalo is the strong buffalo with a nose for resilience. He's a true herd animal, thriving best in company – preferably in the middle of the herd on the shelf, the desk, or right where the mood needs a lift. Soft Buffalo stands firm, even when the world rocks – but he'll happily jump when you give him a gentle push on the top.

The Big Five You don't need to go to Africa to meet The Big Five – with Hoptimist, you can get up close. So close, in fact, that you can give them a gentle push and watch them jump with joy. Because at Hoptimist, The Big Five aren't after prey, but a smile and good cheer. Here, you meet a strong buffalo, a cute rhinoceros, a spotted leopard, a listening elephant, and a majestic lion. They're wild, but in a sweet way – and make everyday life a bit more fun.
