Conservationist Mike Fay explains the Megaflyover project to a group of school students in the Samburu Reserve in Kenya.

"Samburu is one of those places in Africa that has a high human density in the midst of high wildlife density. These people have discovered a way to live with wildlife," Fay said.

The Megaflyover expedition found many examples of how Africans are good stewards of their natural resources.
