Cambodia 1980 Definitive Series - Flora and Fauna

Cambodia · 1980 · Various

This definitive series from 1980 showcases the diverse wildlife of Cambodia. The set features seven different designs, including the Kouprey (a wild ox), the Giant Ibis (a large wading bird), and various species of fish and other native animals, highlighting the country's natural heritage.

Issued in the aftermath of the Cambodian-Vietnamese War and the fall of the Khmer Rouge regime, these stamps marked a return to more traditional philatelic themes for the newly established People's Republic of Kampuchea.
