Super Sande started out fixing tyres, unblocking toilets and patching tents at Jack's Camp. Thirty-two years later, he's regarded as one of Africa's greatest safari guides. 

Peter Allison sits down with his old friend and safari partner to talk about learning to read the Makgadikgadi, why the best guides never stop paying attention, mentoring young guides and how a simple introduction to a neighbouring village grew into schools, clinics and the Elephant Express - proof that conservation starts with people. 

While most people come to Botswana for its wildlife, Sandra Rubins has spent years investing in something just as important – the people who call these wild places home. 

Peter Allison sits down with Sandra, Community Outreach Manager for Natural Selection Botswana, to talk about early childhood education, women's empowerment, and why lasting conservation begins with thriving communities. 

For decades, we thought there was just one species of giraffe. There are actually four, and it took nearly ten years of research to prove it. 

Peter Allison sits down with Stephanie Fennessy, co-founder of the Giraffe Conservation Foundation, to talk about the discovery that changed what we thought we knew, why giraffes are far more vulnerable than most people realise, and what it will take to protect one of Africa's most iconic animals. 

Thirty-one years ago, Jennifer Lalley came to Africa to study lichens. She ended up helping shape the future of conservation.

Peter Allison sits down with Jennifer, co-founder of Natural Selection and Chief Impact Officer, to discuss where conservation funding goes, what makes projects succeed, and why patience may be the most important – and overlooked – conservation tool of all.
