My friend @ThomasNicolon’s book of photography from the Congo basin is phenomenal, the result of 10 years work across DRC, Rep of Congo and CAR. If you’re interested in wildlife or central Africa or amazing images pick up a copy on Amazon 🐍🐘🦍https://t.co/Qbm5LO7Xu8

Collaring elephants is challenging - but worth it! An ECF-funded operation in Congo's Conkouati-Douli NP fitted 2 elephants with collars, with 3 more to follow. The data will help protect this recovering park, home to elephants, gorillas & leatherback turtles.

It’s been a week since I posted this new YouTube video, and I’m overwhelmed by how well it’s been received. 🙏
Feedback has been amazing, and I’m grateful to everyone who took the time to watch.
If you haven’t seen it yet, give it a shot 🌿📷 https://t.co/qzUgyTlsOp
AI’s latest trick? Decoding the language of elephants, writes @ObserverUK.
WCS, a partner of @Cornell, employs the four Congolese researchers working for @ElephantRumbles in Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park on this work.

Nice to see this story in @theobserveruk. “A groundbreaking conservation project tracking the sounds and movements of herds in Africa may one allow us to have a conversation with them”. Words by @Melaniegouby

The Jameson’s mamba is a species across the whole of Central Africa. Recorded here by @ThomasNicolon is the subspecies with a black tail in the East of its range.
The @rfo_rdcongo is managed by WCS in partnership with DRC’s Congolese @IccnRdc.
From the dense rainforests of the DRC’s Okapi Wildlife Reserve, rare camera footage of Jameson’s mambas mating. We believe this has never been documented in the wild.

Why did a bunch of crocodiles catch a ride in this boat? In July 2024, ecoguards from the Lac Télé Community Reserve in the Republic of Congo rescued a group of Congolese dwarf crocodiles from an illegal large-scale poacher and released them into the wild.

“I just got back from 6 weeks in the Congo. The Backlight Elite 45L was just perfect. It's a rugged bag with a lot of extra room for non-photo gear. I love it.” — Thomas Nicolon
