    Into the Dja with Conservation Scientist Nikki Tagg | S2E27

    Into the Dja with Conservation Scientist Nikki Tagg | S2E27

    On the western edge of the vast Congo basin lies one of the world's most remote rainforests - the Dja. It is one of the last strongholds of a rich biodiversity that includes gorillas, chimps, forest elephants, and a breath-taking range of flora and fauna. 

    Dr Nikki Tagg - conservation scientist and Head of Conservation for the Born Free Foundation is one of those rare researchers who has ventured into this spectacular rainforest in the hopes of understanding the causes of biodiversity loss and the mechanisms of co-existence between people and nature to conserve threatened species. 

    Her work explores the effect of human activities like hunting and logging on great ape abundance.
