We are a group of University of California, Los Angeles students under the direction of Dr. Thomas Gillespie. This website is meant to promote the advocacy and conservation of the Island of Yap.
We include a list of species found throughout the island, breaking them down into five main categories: reptiles, birds, mammals, fish, and plants. Additionally, we attached maps representing climate, topography, vegetation, and coral reef distribution of the Island of Yap. We hope you've benefited from this information and feel free to contact us with inquiries or concerns. Kammagar!

If you whisper, people will strain their ears to listen but if you shout people will shut their ears in annoyance.
