Looking for little ways to help endangered species? This week, the United States Postal Service announced a postage-size way to contribute.

In September, the service will begin selling fund-raising stamps, known as semipostal stamps, with the image of a tiger to benefit vanishing species like elephants and rhinoceroses. Each stamp costs 55 cents, 11 cents more than a standard first-class postage stamp, but all the net proceeds will go to the Multinational Species Conservation Funds, administered by the Fish and Wildlife Service.
