Is this hard plastic or soft?

Hard plastic I think the hippo looks realistic. I do educational talks about my trip to Africa, and this had plastic figure gives me an example to pass in the audience.

What are the measurements?? Wanna use some as cake toppers.

5 inches long and ~2 inches tall and ~1.5 inches wide.

The product information says that the hippo uses a Lithium ion battery. Why does this product need a battery?

My figure doesn’t need a any kind of battery. Don’t know what their talking about. Great figure though!

Does the hippo mouth open??

No, there are no moving parts on this toy figurine.
