About this book

Language: French

2014 + 10 million years... that is the future to which Demain: Les Animaux du Futur takes us. The human race has disappeared from the face of the Earth, but not life itself. It is this life that the reader discovers in a compelling narrative that has been dramatically illustrated. Traveling in the seas, forests and deserts of the future, the reader will meet animals whose morphology and lifestyle is rather different: tadpoles that are 40 meters long, lice-octopuses, penguins with propopulsion, killer urchins, etc.: A real fantastic bestiary. An imaginary bestiary because nobody can predict the future, but realistic because the authors have used their knowledge of evolutionary science and anatomy to offer a plausible baseline scenario of future wildlife, based on the fauna of today.

Summary in French:
2014 + 10 millions d'années... C'est le futur dans lequel cet ouvrage nous projette. L'espèce humaine a disparu de la surface de la Terre, mais pas la vie. C'est cette vie là que le lecteur découvre, dans un récit palpitant illustré de façon spectaculaire. Voyageant dans les mers, les forêts et les déserts du futur, il croise des animaux à la morphologie et au mode de vie décoiffants : tétards de 40 mètres de long, poux-pieuvres, pingouins à propopulsion, oursins tueurs, etc. : un vrai bestiaire fantastique. Un bestiaire imaginaire car personne ne peut prédire l avenir mais réaliste, car les auteurs ont mis à profit leur connaissance des sciences de l'évolution et de l'anatomie pour proposer un scénario plausible d'évolution menant de la faune actuelle aux animaux du futur qu'ils nous présentent.
