Nicola Davies (born 3 May 1958), earlier known as Nick Davies, is an English zoologist and writer. She was one of the original presenters of the BBC children's wildlife programme The Really Wild Show. More recently, she has made her name as a children's author. Her books include Home, which was shortlisted for the Branford Boase Award, and Poo (2004), which was illustrated by Neal Layton, and was shortlisted for a Blue Peter Book Award in 2006; in the United States, the book is published as Poop: A Natural History of the Unmentionable. Her children's picture book The Promise won the Green Book Award in 2015. She has also written several novels for adults under the pseudonym Stevie Morgan.
Gaia Warriors (2009), written in association with James Lovelock, explains the science of climate change and answers commonly-asked questions.
Davies is married to Daniel Jones: she has two children from her first marriage.
