84. Thomas Nicolon and The Congo: Photographing the Wildest Place on Earth and How to Outrun a Charging Elephant


Listen Later

Thomas Nicolon is a French National Geographic photographer and explorer documenting wildlife conservation worldwide, with work featured in National Geographic, Le Monde, GEO, Reuters, and other major media outlets. During his five years as a France 24 correspondent in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nicolon shifted to wildlife storytelling, collaborating with organizations like the Wildlife Conservation Society and WWF in central Africa's protected areas.

After two years documenting wildlife trafficking in Peru's Amazon basin, Nicolon now divides his time between field assignments and advocacy work, speaking at festivals and interviews to promote protection of the Congo basin and tropical rainforests.
