About Madagascar
Madagascar is a land just off the coast of Africa that is full of misty mountains, tropical rainforests and spiny desert scrub. It is also home to strange wildlife, much of which is not found elsewhere on Earth. This documentary series, from the BBC's Natural History Unit, showcases the island's diverse and rare wildlife, some of it being filmed for the first time. Among the animals featured on "Madagascar" are lemurs, frogs that change color from brown to yellow, wasps that pluck tadpoles from trees and fish that swim upside down. David Attenborough narrates the three-part series. … MORE

She has just printed her first school in Madagascar - Only The Second 3D-printed school in The World .
Printing schools is fast, once The Printer is Set Up , and saves on Building Materials .
Maggie says she is motivated to help underprivileged children partly because she was born in poverty in China, before being adopted by American parents.
Next year she plans to print a village school in a different part of Madagascar , a country where one in five children do not even attend primary school.
