Also appearing on the stamps commemorating the Lycaon, a mammal of Africa with very similar features to those of a dog deemed the carnivore with a greater degree of sociability and cooperation, and the Russian Amur leopard, the most endangered big cat across the globe, because in order to ensure the survival of the species would need 100 copies and are currently just over 30.
