Eagles of Africa… Stamps that preserve environmental memory

The South African Post Office issued a special set of B5 postage stamps dated January 23, 2026, accompanied by a commemorative CDC display card, to highlight the drastic decline in African vulture populations over the past 30 years and raise awareness of their vital ecological role. The photographs of the stamps and display card are by photographer André Botha, co-chair of the Vulture Expert Group within the CDC.
