A freelance journalist specializing in natural history, environmental reporting, cultural travel, and outdoor adventure, Eddie Nickens has paddled remote Canadian rivers and spent days in the Puerto Rican rainforest searching for endangered parrots. He has tracked Florida panthers to investigate the effects of urban sprawl on large predators and plumbed Mexican deserts to profile a naturalist with a bent for holes in the ground.  

His award-winning articles and essays have appeared in Smithsonian, National Wildlife, National Geographic Adventure, Men’s Journal, Backpacker, Audubon, Wildlife Conservation, Reader’s Digest and many other magazines. He has written for both print and electronic journals, consulted for clients as diverse as The Discovery Channel and the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum, and lectured widely at universities and museums and for conservation organizations.

He lives in Raleigh, North Carolina.
