- Summary:
-
Colour lithographic poster advertising a set of six stamps and associated products issued to bring national attention to the selfless work of volunteers rescuing and caring for sick, injured and orphaned native animals. Carers of rescued animals often take them to the veterinarian and, after treatment and rehabilitation, transport them back to their original habitat for release. They provide an invaluable service for not only our wildlife but for all Australians, by helping preserve the richness of the Australian environment. Across the top of the poster are images of the stamps which feature the common wombat, eastern grey kangaroo, koala, grey-headed flying fox, southern boobook and the ring-tailed possum. Below this is an image of the medallion set and to the right is the poster caption, in a cross shape symbolic of first aid. In the poster background is a mossy tree trunk up the left of the poster with its roots and a rock pool across the bottom.
