Noppadol Paothong


















Noppadol Paothong is a staff wildlife photographer with the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) and his images appear in the monthly publication, Missouri Conservationist, and many other MDC’s publications.

With a monthly circulation of over 500,000, the Missouri Conservationist is known as one of the largest and high quality state conservation magazines.


He has been focusing on documenting rare and endangered species. More specifically, he has worked primarily on grassland grouse and their fragile habitat for over a decade.


He has received numerous prestigious awards, including Picture of the Year International, National Wildlife Photo Contest, Nature’s Best, Audubon Photo Contest, Outdoor Writers Association of America Photo Contest, and Missouri Photojournalist of the Year. His photos have also appeared in several national publications, including National Wildlife, Ranger Rick, Audubon, Birder’s Word, Nature Conservancy, Field & Stream, and many more.


He recently published a book on North American grassland grouse,

“Save the Last Dance,” which he has been working on for over a decade. 

The 204-page hardbound book, Save the Last Dance, a Story of North American Grassland Grouse, captures the dazzling beauty of seven grouse species whose populations are diminishing across the prairies and plains of America – and one species that has already lost its battle for survival.


Nop lives in Columbia, Missouri, with his wife, daughter, and two Golden Retrievers. Nop joined the STCP Board in 2013. He joined the STCP Council

in 2013.
