2007 Lesser Panda Stamps & Souvenir Sheet(s/s). Rep of China.
The lesser panda is a carnivorous mammal of the Ailuridae family. The coat on its torso is reddish chestnut and its limbs and belly are deep chestnut. It has white patches on its face and white edges around its ears.
The designs of the four stamps and the miniature sheet follow:
(1) Foraging: Lesser pandas are agile climbers, but they feed mostly on the ground. Omnivorous, their diet in the wild consists of bamboo leaves, bamboo shoots, grasses, fruits, insects and baby birds.
(2) Napping: Lesser pandas are crepuscular and nocturnal animals. When it is hot during the day, they usually sleep somewhere hidden- up high or on shady branches.
(3) Playing: Mild of temperament, lesser pandas are mischievous, playful and curious. They spend a great deal of time playing.
(4) Scratching: Lesser pandas’ beautiful fluffy chestnut coats demand constant grooming. When a lesser panda raises its tiny hind leg to scratch, it is the very picture of cuteness.
The s/s features two lesser pandas curiously and leisurely patrolling the woods. The design is amusing and endearing, especially in its depiction of the lesser panda in the lower right corner. The stamp provides a very clear image of its beautiful tail (with its special colored rings), which is draped over a tree branch.
The photo is only an example.
