| My collection of ELC models Its a odd collection of animals as the Feral Goat is a domestic animal gone wild and the Muntjac is an introduced species!They would have been better with Roe Deer and a European/Mountain Hare There is a picture of the Red Deer and Exmoor Pony for Toy Wiki Roger-The picture in the ELC section unnumbered there is a picture of a toad-this is the Natterjack toad amd my model has a number 4763.

| This is my favourite set from ELC. I find the idea stupendous for something called Early Learning Center, the figures have very attractive designs for kids and they are more than good for grown up collectors. They are also made of a good plastic quality. I don't see a big problem that the feral goat and the Exmoor are two feral creatures and the muntjack as introduced. They are all iconic from British region. I wished Maia & Borges, for instance, had introduced a set like this one with Iberian fauna. Thanks for providing pictures of the red deer and pony, it is only missing the fallow deer and after it I can make a complete gallery dedicated to this set. Number and species of the toad was also important, can you find numbers in your reindeer, fallow deer, adder and Exmoor?

| There is an alternative set of Brithish Wildlife. I don't know who is the owner of this picture anymore. We see some figures we know as ELC models together with other we only know as AAA models. Namely the fox is the AAA version. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Thank you all for your kind remarks.I will check the numbers on all the deer and the adder. and get a photo of the fallow deer. I remember seeing the little set in the tin-the owl and the rabbit are also AAA and I have both. |

| That box is what some of my ELC were sold in, ELC is frequently on UK eBay but is hard to find in the ELC shops as they retired them nearly 10 years ago _________________ [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] ADAM [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] "Our planet is in crisis.

| I have just emailed the Early Learning Centre asking if they would possibly re-release their figures that they made. _________________ [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] ADAM [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] "Our planet is in crisis.
