A trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe brought her love for animals, especially elephants, to a new height; upon her return she founded Earth Comix, a 501(c)3 organization with the mission of using comics and cartoons to raise awareness about the iconic animals that are facing extinction due to poaching and climate change. A recent Earth Comix project was a collaboration with Canines for Africa to produce a comic book entitled “Shikar’s Incredible Adventure,” the story of one of the C4A dogs trained to attack poachers in South Africa’s Kruger National Park.
Her publications can be accessed on her two websites: www.peacotoons.com and www.earthcomix.org.
