| In the desert, there is a high mortality rate among camels because this helpful animal is abused. The Tunisian Protectorate has therefore just enacted measures to “avoid the loss of the camel herd”. Le Temps approves: “The automobile, which can now venture into the desert, will never replace the camel, and the fast and powerful machine will only usefully play its role with the help of the slow and fragile animal. It is therefore appropriate, in fact, to “avoid the loss of the camel herd”, a law that the Tuaregs and Arabs have observed for a long time, without having so elegantly formulated it, by simply taking care of their animals. » |
