The proposed stamp will act as a "complement" to the Duck Stamp which since
1934 has made possible crucial wetlands and habitat conservation. However,
in May 2020, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) announced revisions
to the Duck Stamp artwork requirements, including a permanent theme,
“celebrating our waterfowl hunting heritage.” Starting in 2020, each Duck
Stamp artwork entry must now “include an appropriate waterfowl hunting
scene and/or accessory.”
Personally, I look forward to this alternative proposed by the American
Bird Conservancy.
