| Aanvullende informatie |
The burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) has been listed as endangered in Canada since 1995, its prairie population collapsing due to pesticide use, habitat loss, and the near-eradication of black-tailed prairie dog colonies that provide the burrows the species depends on entirely for nesting. By 2015, fewer than 1,000 individual birds were estimated to remain in the wild in Canada.
This is one of several RCM issues in the broader "Baby Animals" series, which began in 2013 and consistently sold out at issue price — a pattern that drove aggressive secondary market premiums on early releases.
