Romfilatelia dedicates to the pasionates of Fauna, a new postage stamps issue entitled Polar fauna that will be introduced into circulation, on Tuesday, 28thof February, current year.
The Faunatopic is at the top of the postage stamps collectors preferences, which will complete their collections with 4 polar species.
The Arctic wolf (Canis lupus arctos), presented on the postage stamp with the face value of Lei 1.80, belongs of Canidaefamily and is a subspecies of grey wolf that lives in the northern part of North America. The equivalent subspecies in northern Asia is the Siberian wolf (Canis lupus albus). It is distinguished by its white fur. Since 1930, there has been a progressive reduction in size in Arctic wolf skull, which is likely the result of wolf-dog hybridization. The color of the fur ensures a good camouflage in the snow. It has about 63-79 cm in height and weighs about 45 kg and is up to 1.5 m long.
