The Golden Jackal

This stamp highlights the Golden Jackal (Canis aureus), an emblematic predator of the rural and semi-arid landscapes of Tunisia. The illustration highlights the presence of this robust canid in the local ecosystem, where it plays a crucial ecological regulatory role. By devoting a program to this species, the Tunisian Post is raising public awareness of the country's wildlife and the need to preserve the natural habitats where this carnivore lives. It is a tribute to Tunisian wildlife, often discreet but essential to the balance of Mediterranean biodiversity.
