| Additional information |
Burkina Faso has no domestic mint and contracts its commemorative issues through the Monnaie de Paris and various European private minting houses. The CFA franc itself is pegged to the euro under arrangements inherited from the colonial-era franc zone, meaning the issuing authority for these pieces is largely nominal — the Banque Centrale des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest underwrites the currency while individual member states license their own commemorative programs.
KM#10 places this among a small run of wildlife-themed issues produced for the collector market rather than circulation.
