1978 CONSERVATION OF ENDANGERED SPECIES
Three self-adhesive stamps featuring a styalised sea turtle for general postage, airmail and official airmail. 1987 SAVE THE WORLD'S WILDLIFE
A minisheet of 15 se-tenant stamps featuring three herps: a pair of treefrogs, a chameleon and what looks like a green anaconda or a very green python! The caption reads: "And God remembered Noah and every living thing" Genesis 8 verse 1. Clearly Noah forgot what God has told him about the two by two business because there is only one chameleon and one anaconda/python, and one butterfly, althoug the frogs, birds and mammals seem set to go. Maybe the fact the three singletons are waiting in the bushes is a sign their dates have not turned up yet.
