La traversée du désert
Fred et Jamy quittent le continent européen pour aller dans le plus grand désert du monde : le Sahara. En 4x4, à dos de dromadaire ou de mulet, ils nous font découvrir le désert et ses habitants. Fred nous montre que ce désert de 8 millions de km carrés n'est pas fait que de sable et de dunes, mais de paysages variés : gorges, regs (vallées de cailloux) et falaises de grès. Il nous parle des conditions climatiques, de l'aridité et des végétaux qui se sont adaptés à la sécheresse comme l'arbre Acacia Raddiana. Ce sera l'occasion de faire un tour d'horizon des principaux déserts de notre planète qui couvrent jusqu'à 20 % de sa surface. A Laayoune, Fred part à la rencontre des Peuls et des Touaregs, nomades du Sahara. Mais, il découvre également des agriculteurs sédentaires dans le village de Tarfaya. Nous verrons aussi comment certaines espèces animales vivent dans le désert et bien sûr le plus étonnant des animaux du Sahara : le dromadaire.
