Note to self: June 11th! Go get some turtle stamps!
It's turtle time! π’π π’π π’π
The U.S. Postal Service is releasing 6 commemorative sea turtle stamps on June 11, 2024. NOAA Fisheries scientist Barbara Schroeder (National Sea Turtle Coordinator) worked on this effort, with assistance from Jeff Seminoff (lead of the Marine Turtle Ecology and Assessment Program), during her last year of federal service and into retirement.
These are the first U.S. stamps dedicated solely to sea turtles. They will be issued as a pane of 18 forever stamps, intended to increase public awareness of sea turtle conservation efforts and the ongoing threats to their survival.
