Issued by Guinea-Bissau in 2008, this striking wildlife stamp features two iconic species of African wetlands: the Great White Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus) in flight and the Nile Crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) resting in a marsh environment. The dramatic composition highlights the biodiversity of African river and wetland ecosystems. With its high 3000 FCFA denomination, the stamp was primarily intended for international postal use and collectors. The detailed illustration and scientific species names printed on the design make it appealing to thematic collectors focusing on wildlife, birds, reptiles, or African fauna.
