Stamps Wiki:EUROPA2021

The variety of wildlife is vital to both the planet and its human inhabitants. However, scientists have alerted us that the biodiversity of our planet is in crisis. One out of eight million species globally are threatened with extinction, mainly due to habitat loss and fragmentation, unsustainable agriculture and climate change. This year's EUROPA Stamp theme "endangered national wildlife" gives European postal operators the opportunity to showcase the threatened species in their country. Hence, PostEurop is proud to launch the 2021 most beautiful EUROPA stamps competition, to further bring awareness on the topic to our audiences by depicting some of the most affected species in Europe, on beautiful stamp sheets.
