Several of jungle fowls
(VN Code: 949)
On 1 April 2006, Ministry of Posts & Telematics (MPT) issues the stampset: “Several of jungle fowls” consisting of 5 values and 1 block of 5 stamps with their denominations of 800d; 2.000d; 3,000d, 5,000d, 8,000d and 18,800d respectively.
The stamp set depicts Vietnam’s threatened and endemic partridges and pheasants (Galliformes). In consultation with ornithological experts from the BirdLife International Vietnam Programme, the designer selected five Galliformes to be depicted on the stamps. They are the Orange-necked Partridge Arborophila davidi, Edwards’s Pheasant Lophura edwardsi, Vietnamese Pheasant Lophura hatinhensis, Germain’s Peacock-pheasant Polyplectron germaini and Crested Argus Rheinardia ocellata. All five species have small populations that are declining because of habitat loss and fragmentation and high levels of hunting. The first three are regarded by BirdLife International as Endangered, the others as Vulnerable. The classifications vary depending upon how severe their threat of extinction is considered to be.
This is the first time BirdLife Organization and the MPT have co-operated to publish stamps depicting Vietnam’s spectacular bird life. Each stamp carries the BirdLife International logo.
