This figurine is part of a popular series of wildlife sculptures produced by Royal Doulton, likely during the 1980s.

The use of cold-cast resin allowed for a much finer level of detail than traditional bone china, making them highly sought-after collectibles. The artist, K. Sherwin, was responsible for sculpting many of the most beloved figures in these series.
