'Bruce' holds the Guinness World Record for being the largest mosasaur skeleton in the world.
The mosasaur was a giant sea-dwelling reptile that could open its jaws like a snake and swallow prey whole. Bruce's fossil is on display at the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre in Morden, Man.
Bruce's stamp is part of a five-stamp series that feature 3D-style dinosaur paintings.
Bruce was painted by paleo-artist Julius Csotonyi.
