As an aerial cinematographer, Doug Thron has been shooting professionally for 27 years. He’s one of the most widely-published aerial cinematographers in the country. After using his drones to film the devastation left in the wake of the “Camp Fires” in Paradise, CA, Doug joined the efforts there to rescue lost pets from the burn zone and reunite them with their owners. Driven by his commitment to the environment and his life-long love of animals, Doug now travels around the globe, anywhere his unique talents and technology can help as communities deal with the devastation left behind in a natural disaster.
Doug Thron of CuriosityStream’s original series ‘Doug to the Rescue’ writes about how he came to rescue animals from natural disasters using a drone with an infrared camera.
