Zebra Duiker (Cephalophus zebra)

This stamp is part of the Comorian series on endangered animals and depicts the Aye-Aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis), a unique nocturnal primate native to Madagascar. Known for its distinctive appearance and specialized feeding habits, the aye-aye occupies a highly specialized ecological niche within Madagascar's forests. The species has long attracted scientific interest because of its unusual adaptations and its importance within the island's unique wildlife.

By featuring the aye-aye, the Comoros highlighted the importance of conserving rare species found in the western Indian Ocean region. The issue promotes awareness of the threats posed by habitat destruction and encourages efforts to protect the extraordinary biodiversity of Madagascar and neighboring island ecosystems.
