1st of 3 Treen Spoon/Ladles, Age Unknown but Not Too Old

This is 20" long; the bowl is 3 3/4" long, ~3" wide, ~1 3/4" deep outside, with a capacity of perhaps ~4 oz. Weight is ~7 1/2 oz.
It appears entirely hand-carved; the bowl walls are quite uniform in thickness (~.200"); the tail has an annular grove, the thread is my addition. Can any of y'all see a specific cultural identifier in its form? I sense central or South American...but cannot justify that hunch. This one doesn't get used; it's a kitchen display for me...but I have others! Thanks for lookin'!

 

cute !

 

That's a word I don't often use...but it is!
