Participating for the third year, "Azerpost" chose the blue whale, an endangered underwater species, showcasing its sensitivity to the global ecosystem. The stamp also managed to depict the delicate beauty of the blue whale through the artist's unique perspective.
The design on the stamp submitted by Azerbaijan belongs to artist Orkhan Garayev.
