Every year, different animals from all over the huge Sahara desert gather at the lakes of Ounianga for a very exciting event! The Sahara is the world's largest desert and is one of the hardest places to live on the planet. Some of the animals travel across the dry, hot desert for days and days to get to the oasis.
