Description
This stamp illustrates the male ostrich (Struthio camelus), a species formerly present in the wild in southern Tunisia and today at the heart of reintroduction and breeding programs. Presented in an arid savannah landscape, the bird symbolizes the little-known richness of the Saharan fauna and Tunisia's efforts to restore its original ecosystems. It is a message of preserving wild nature and promoting endemic or reintroduced species which contribute to the ecological balance and biological diversity of the national territory.
