Cousine du serpent, du crocodile et du lézard, la tortue est apparue à peu près en même temps que les dinosaures. Après plus de 200 millions d'années d'évolution, la voici aujourd'hui qui, toujours armée de sa précieuse carapace, bat tranquillement des records de longévité parmi les vertébrés… Notre paisible reptile a conquis le tiers des océans et la moitié des terres émergées, supportant sans difficulté la vie dans le désert, se cachant dans les fonds boueux des marais, ou parcourant des milliers de kilomètres à travers les océans, lancé dans de très longues migrations. Entre Guyane et Corse, Fred, Jamy et Sabine nous font découvrir l'univers de ces passionnantes vieilles dames à carapace. D'où vient la carapace des tortues ? Comment font-elles pour disparaître à l'intérieur de cette drôle de boîte d'os ? Quelles routes les tortues Luth empruntent-elles quand elles migrent ? Comment le magnétisme terrestre les guide-t-il sur leur chemin ?
