This stamp illustrates the efforts to reintroduction of emblematic Saharan species within the Bou-Hedma National Park, a true biosphere reserve. The Addax, an antelope with spiral horns adapted to arid environments, embodies the resilience of life in the pre-Saharan steppes and savannahs of Tunisia. The illustration celebrates the natural heritage of the South and the scientific ambition to restore the country's original fauna, recalling that environmental protection is an essential component of the sustainable management of the Tunisian territory.
