Baby Wildlife series 2014


Baby Wildlife series 2014
Added by Alain Martineau
General Description : Gum Type: PVA
This year, the Baby Wildlife series wraps up with one last adorable issue. Each stamp captures the early days of some of Canada’s more recognizable wildlife: the baby beaver, mountain goat, puffin, wapiti and burrowing owl. With four years of newborn critter stamps to her credit, as well as other Canadian stamps since 1998, designer Sophie Lafortune strives to ensure these youngsters look their best.
“The focus on the animals has kept the series fresh by giving new life to the stamps with each issue. New animals with different habitats meant new design challenges,” explains Lafortune, adding, “There’s a need to find new ways of seeing the animals each year.”
