Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

Tag: Meital Smith


Tiffany Yap, a Senior Conservation Environmental Scientist for the Center for Biologic Diversity, just published a graphic novel on P-22’s amazing life with  a cameo from a very special guest star. I thought you’d want to know,,,

Tiffany Yap is a conservation scientist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. She holds a doctorate in environmental science and engineering and has published studies in Science, EcoHealth, and other scientific journals. Her work has been featured in major news outlets, including the New York Times, LA Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and NPR.

Living in SF I’d be very surprised if she didn’t know something about our urban beavers, but she’s youngish so it might be before her time, which give me a GREAT idea for a story. Ahem…Here’s the illustrator…

Meital Smith is an illustrator and artist from Seattle, Washington. She graduated from Cornish College of the Arts with a BFA in Design in 2021 and is currently pursuing an MAT at the Rhode Island School of Design. Meital’s work has appeared in The Lily, and in 2021, she self-published her graphic novella Yesh Lanu Machaneh, which documents her community’s experiences at her beloved summer camp, Camp Miriam.

Tiffany is especially interested in wildlife corridors that allow migration from on region to another, so you can see why she fell in love with P-22’s story. Hey I know an animal that can really help maintain high quality corridors. Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Those neglected urban streams sustain a lot of foot traffic for migrating wildlife. And give them a nice place to rest and hide out during wildfire events. Just look.

Let’s be honest, we probably all owe our survival to beavers…
