Mantis Shrimp cartoons for Arastirmaci Cocuk
A set of cartoons about the amazing Mantis Shrimp done for the Turkish kids magazine Arastirmaci Cocuk. The cartoons originally appear in Turkish in the August edition of this lovely magazine.
For a more detailed (and zany) take on Mantis Shrimp biology, I recommend reading The Oatmeal's hilarious Mantis Shrimp poster here.

Lion tailed Macaques and Canopy Bridges
Nature Conservation Foundation has been doing some pathbreaking conservation work across India, and one such example is in Valparai, Anamalai. Canopy bridges made of canvas and lined with rubber have been very effective in providing a safe passage for the endemic and endangered Lion-tailed Macaques.
Comic from my column with Roundglass Sustain. More of my work on Valparai for Nature Conservation Foundation can be viewed here.

Kiribati and Climate Change
Kiribati's flag celebrates its national bird, the Magnificent Frigatebird that represents its freedom, the Equator represented by the sun, and its command over the sea represented by the waves. This beautiful flag could tell an entirely unintended and tragic story in the next fifty years, as the entire island nation is among the first expected to submerge because of climate change.
Comic from my column with Pune Mirror. I was first introduced to the Kiribati climate crisis by Indian environmentalist and Grammy-winning musician Ricky Kej's work. Watch his music video 'Song for Kiribati' here.
