Mahi in the Mail

Mahi Mahi Air Mail Cartoon

We’ve already made argument that mahi mahi are potentially the world’s greatest gamefish, and we’ve shown you a mailbox manufactured to look like one. We’ve also explored some gamefish-themed postage stamps. Now we’ll tackle the intersection of the two – stamps featuring these colorful fish, whether you call them mahi, dolphin or dorado.
