The Sahara: MORE than Dunes

- How’s everyone DUNE? (get it? Like doing. Hah). I just wanted to SPICE up (ok I’ll stop) the channel with a sahara-centric video that definitely has no tie in to recent cinema. Nope. none at all. But seriously, I hope you all enjoy this episode about a place on earth rarely explored.
Background music, and album, by Dara Hughes! Here is full list of everywhere you can find the album and his other work:
Spotify - open.spotify.com/album/4Yghnc...
Bandcamp - uknowhat.bandcamp.com/album/t...
Apple music: / uknowhat
Amazon music: music.amazon.co.uk/albums/B0C...
I usually would recommend wikipedia article to go and check out, but instead, do yourself a favour and check out One Earth’s awesome website:
www.oneearth.org/bioregions-2...
At 1:37 you misspelled similar lol
huh, similiar has always been how I spelled it I think. What a crazy Mandela effect.
@@TheBudgetMuseumi went years thinking “village” was “villiage” lol. I tbh had to google the word similar just to be sure i was right before making a comment because your spelling looked correct too 😂
You guys are so cute
I paused it and was just like dang I never knew it had 3 I’s😂
'Uncomprehensible' for Incomprehensible
This video is peak budget museum
Very much agree! Budget Museum is such a good channel!
I member Alf.
i bet!
He's back, and in pog form
I forgor 💀
Me 2
yyhhhhh me too i member
9:52 I just recently looked at Sahara in satellite view, it's crazy how alien it looks from close up, kilometers of dried up rivers remind of me of Mars and how it once held water. It somehow looks like a long lost civilization, in a continent that has the highest growth rate on earth.
-highest- *only growth rate on earth
Apparently it was green once upon a time. Booming with life.
@@moshoeshoemokaloba9613 it's green every 20,000 years or so, we just happened to be in a time when it's not
I love the Sahara so much, nothing comes close to its wonderful wadis, xeric shrublands, arid deserts, oases, the Delta
Endemic fish in the Sahara! Makes you think how they ended up there. 😅
1. Remnant from when it was wetter
2. Sometimes birds accidentally drop fish they're carrying into bodies of water (my friend observed a seagull do this)
@parmaxolotl happens a lot. Sometimes, a bird will grab a pregnant fish, and the eggs will disperse wherever the bird flies
It’s from the flood during Noah’s time

That’s a fable that never existed. Watch videos on the African humid period aka, the green Sahara.
The Sahara was green up to 5.5kya, back in 3,500 BCE. The largest lake by surface area was formed there, megalake Chad. The Sahara was completely lush and green as the west African monsoon travelled north due to the Milankovich cycles and all the African megafauna such as elephants, rhinos, hippos and lions lived in the Sahara.
Humans of black African ancestry inhabited the region as the “Aqualithic culture” who were hunter gatherers and later nomadic pastoralists of Nilo-Saharan ancestry.
They later moved into the Nile River valley as the Sahara aridified and turned into a desert to form the Nubian and ancient Egyptian civilisations.
Funny how it is called Dorcas Gazelle, when dorcas mean gazelle in Greek...
Some Greek must have asked a local, "what's that?"
The local replied, "dorcas."
"Mmm... so it's a dorcas gazelle, thanks."
Sahara means desert, the desert desert
Wait until you learn about the western lowland gorilla
@@ProfOak-ci2cc Nothing beats the taxonomy of the Plains Bison.
@@ProfOak-ci2cc is that the one with the scientific name of gorilla gorilla gorilla?
So happy to see another upload. I love how detailed and in depth your videos are.
You respect the intelligence of your audience, which is rare on YT.
I hope we will be able to enjoy your carefully crafted content and beautiful music to accompany it for a very long time.
Love these videos! Thanks for being such a chill TH-camr. Definitely gonna check out the album too. The music on these vids is great.
One of my favorite channels ever, I’ve been watching for about 2 year and always get super excited when I see that you have uploaded. I appreciate that you’re still around on TH-cam and I hope that you continue to stick around
Instantly became my favorite channel to watch for anything animals! The whole vibe in your videos is awesome. Love the music and humor too
You should do the rest of Africa as well. I'd watch the hell out of that. Maybe the whole world lol
Seconded!
Yes please!! I love learning about this stuff and have never learned enough about African and Asian geography
Gotta say the budget museum album is running for on of my favorite albums I’ve ever heard
Excellent video, as usual! I was intrigued by the Tanezrouft. Good job mate!
As an Alaskan, your usage of the term "lower-48" really resonated with me. Subbed.
So glad your back! Love your videos!!
As a fun fact about Dune, astillar actor Javier Bardem was born on Dunes in an island next to the Sahara.
I love the style and subjects of your videos. The music is beautiful and fits so well, too.
Abyssal plains: resource poor but liveable
Hot desert: resource poor but liveable
Continental glacier: *NOPE*
Dune in pog form?
Lisan Alf-Gaib!
@@PebphizAs it was written!
I love your channel, it’s one of my favorites, your voice is also super relaxing :^
Love your content bro, side note: your baboon video still echos in my head to this day, rent free.
Wohooo ur one of my favorite youtube channels! Keep it up dude
I am a marine scientist focuses on seagrass, and thanks for highlighting them! I didn't even know seagrass existed on the northwest africa coast, although sensible as one of the coastal characteristics of seagrass habitat are visible flux of sands and nutrient run-off. Great video!
Always a joyous day when the budget museum uploads
This is great. I wish I had other friends into content like this, because you're my favourite youtuber. ❤
Please do more videos about One Earth's Ecoregions! I loved the way you put the information together
I have loved your channel from the beginning, and I value it more lately with how respectful you continue to be with your ways of speaking; you make an effort to use non-English words where it's appropriate and culturally relevant and it's very sincere. ❤
Missed you so much!! So happy to see another post
SUPER NICE
Welcome back, The Budget Museum!
Thank you for the wonderful content... the dunes make me dream...
Opened my eyes, I had no idea the sahara was so varied
So relaxing to listen to ❤ I lived in a desert for a year (rocky one), so interesting to hear about Sahara
Great video! I always love learning about stuff like this and you delivered 👌🏻✨ Awesome music too. Keep up the good work ;)
Man you should upload more, this is great.
your videos always make my day!
I love the way you talk your tone and cadence is very relaxing. you remind me of joe pera a little bit
Love the music - always have. Great channel too
Amazing video, as always!
Really enjoyed this one, always excited to see a new upload
Such a chill youtuber
Very interesting video, keep up the good work! 👍🏼
Fascinating! Had an hunch the Sahara was more diverse than popularly believed to.
This was wonderful! I learned a lot!
As a Subnautica player, I want to call some of these sub-regions as "biomes." But I don't see that term being used much. To this end, I am looking forward to learning from this video and seeing if I can learn more correct terminology.
Excellent video, and great way of jumping on the dune trend. Taking ecoregion study into the mainstream!
"Maximum aridity" is a fun phrase.
Another day, another banger.
God i love this channel
is your voice deeper? sounds like it but im not sure if its audio or your voice actually being deeper
Just found your channel. Your voice and presentation style reminds me of Masaman. Different subject matter though. Your vids look super interesting, I will commennce the binge.
You have over 340,000 souls waiting for your next video. No pressure.
thanks
🎉
This was a great mini doc
Babe, wake up! New Budget Museum video dropped!!!!! And babe, guess who didn't get notified? T-T
I’ve always dreamed of travelling across the Sahara. Great intro video.
Sounds like a nightmare
“This real desert might not be as impressive as this totally fictional idea, but the reality of this real thing is still impressive in its own right”
I'd love to see a video on the Gobi!
Your imagery for the concept of “ecoregions” has me imagining how to use Minecraft as a teaching tool for ecology
Heres some engagement because you deserve it. Great vids!
I love the rock art giraffes. Beautiful lines.
11:29 That rock art is probably the most accurately detailed prehistoric rock art that I've ever seen.
this is very iteresting, thanks for the video
Great job man!
It's great to see you upload, especially since I learned about a new animal. And such a banger of a critter too - the Libyan striped weasel is the perfect mix of ferret and skunk. Amazing. The most perfect mustelid.
Thank you for expanding my weasel horizon TBM.
would love to see a video about the oasis’ , keep killing it !
incredible stuff!
Why this channel isn’t more popular is beyond me. Literally some of the most important and eye opening content on TH-cam. Never stop bro.
Thanks again for your videos mate you’re brilliant, the next Attenborough 😂 👍 keep it up ❤
One of my favorite channels
Could you drop some sources for the photos you used? At least the landscape ones
Everytime you upload it's truly a joy. I am enamoured with what was and what is our Earth
I love the “similiar” debacle at 1:34
this was lovely🐪🦊🦌
been listening to the budget museum album, it rules!! big fan of the channel :)
Damn your son is precocious as fuck, can't wait to see what his music's like when he grows up! (In other news great music and fantastic video that kinda captures the soul of the whole idea of Dune.)
Very interesting. Thank you for educating.
If the Sahara is this expansive and large now that it's a desert, imagine what it was like when it was still a lush humid green place it was just tens of thousands of years ago.
900000km and.....growing
YES! great vid
Good man Dara, maith an fear.
Blessed
Love this video, hope You make a prehistoric Sahara / África video
“My desert. My Sahara. My dune.”
Lesss go new vid
Truly iconic overuse of the iconic term “iconic”!
Africa has so many hidden wonders it amazing! Hard to realize how freaking big it is. I wish the population was better treated.
Great video!
330k subs and still underrated!
Well they also have pebbles, rocks, boulders, hills and mountains.
Very cool video. Thanks
Frist time seeing video, started with Alf joke, subscribed.
Big Up ur music homie🤘
One of the last few places on earths land where you can be truly alone ❤
Also the phrase "(sahara) desert is just 20% dunes" or something like that was in one Jackie Chan movie. I am not sure about the english name, probably "The armor of the gods 2"
amazing vid
plus Sahara being a desert is fairly recent, it used to be mostly savannah full of the kind of African fauna typical of sub-Saharan Africa.
Where can I buy the album? I don't use music services.
The Sahara looks to me like what would happen to a huge chunk of ocean that was drained and left to dry out for thousands of years.🤔
I don't have zoophilia, but I've fallen in love with Gazelle from Zootopia
Lovely video! Would appreciate a link to Dara’s music - can’t find it
The links are in the description
At 2.38 mins... is that an old eroded Karst system? Can you tell me where that is please?
