America’s natural bounty includes an astounding variety of unique and priceless wildlife.

With this pane of 20 stamps, the U.S. Postal Service® presents a photographic portfolio of 20 representative endangered animal species. Those featured are found within the 50 states and American territories and possessions, or living near U.S. borders.
