14、seal is nearby.海豹并没有意识到有危险The seal is unaware of the danger.而北极熊正需要它继续蒙在鼓里And the bear needs to keep it that way.水中猎食的成功率很低The success rate of hunting from the water is very low.或许第三次会走运Maybe third time will be lucky.这只小北极熊尚未掌握海上追踪的诀窍This young bear has yet to master the art of stalking from the sea

15、.但掌握此项本领非常重要But itrs important that he does.一年年过去它可能会越来越依赖它He may have to rely on it more and more each year.地球气候正在变暖Our climate is warming.而受此效应影响最大的And nowhere is this having a greater effect莫过于北极than in the Arctic.今年的气温This year, the temperature climbs上升到了惊人的38摄氏度to a staggering 38 degrees Celsiu

29、line towards her target.莱桑岛游去Laysan Island.无独有偶And shes not the only one.这一物种经历了漫长的旅程堪称鲨鱼迁徙的距离之最This species makes some of the longest journeys of all sharks.而且虎鲨猎食的动物也比其他鲨鱼更加广泛And hunts a bigger range of animals than any other.其中甚至还包括鸟类Including even birds.这只莱桑信天翁The Laysan albatross chick hasnt ea

30、ten自两周前被父母抛下后就再未进食since he was abandoned by his parents two weeks ago.为了觅食To find food他必须离开小岛he must now leave the island.但世界上最大的海鸟起飞需要借助很大的风力But the worlds largest seabirds need a lot of lift.风随时会来That could come at any moment.七月在高温作用下海上会形成热带风暴In July, the high ocean temperatures generate tropical

32、s never a long one.而在此处这通常也是最后一次飞行And here, its often their last.虎鲨来了The tiger sharks have arrived.而且不会轻易失手And they are very effective.这让年幼的信天翁不免心生畏惧For the young albatross, its not exactly encouraging. 然而机不可失But its now.时不再来.or never.如果他到达远洋水域If he reaches the open ocean很可能五年内都不会着陆he may not touch

33、land again for five years.然而没有犯错的余地But there is no room for error.是时候抛开谨慎顾虑Time to throw caution to the wind.该起飞了Time to fly.就在三个月前这里还有水体浸润These scars are the only sign that it was covered by water 如今只剩这些疤痕为证 just three months ago.彼时繁茂苍翠Then, rich and green.如今却荒枯贫瘠Now, baked and barren.这种改变促使动物们集体行动

34、This change drives animals to move en masse.非洲水牛正在穿越喀拉哈里沙漠Cape buffalo are marching across the Kalahari Desert 奔赴仅存的水源towards the last remaining water.小群聚而成大军Groups have come together and formed a mega herd.规模堪称非洲之最The largest in Africa.每一年它们都进行同样的朝圣之旅All are making the same annual pilgrimage 奔赴同一片偏

35、远湿地to one remote marsh.而其它动物也指望着水牛的湿地之行And others are relying on them to do so.这些狮子是猎捕水牛的行家These lions are buffalo specialists.对狮群而言And the mega herds arrival水牛大军的到来是一年中的头等要事 is the most important event of their year.它们已经守候数周等待水牛大军的到来For weeks, they*ve been waiting for the buffalo army.一双双眼睛密切关注着地平线

36、上的每一个身影Eyes fixed on every shape crossing the horizon. 终于Finally.步步逼近的群落正如一面弯角和肌肉组成的墙The approaching horde is a wall of horns and muscle. 但狮子必须找到其中的弱者But the lions must find a weakness.机会可能来了And this could be it.一头落单的公牛A lone bull.尽管他可能跟牛群走散了He may be separate from the herd但水牛的体重比狮子重四倍but he is four

39、的一个缩影is one of millions driven by the seasons.而反过来这种种迁徙And they, in turn又是由另一段旅程促成are a consequence of another journey.地球绕口的周期之年Our planets year-long loop around the sun.转动的过程中As it travels地球保持着23.5度的倾斜角it does so on a tilt of 23 and a half degrees.这种倾斜造就了不同的季节And it is this that creates our seasons

40、.想要了解其中原理请将目光对准北极To understand how, keep your eye on the North Pole.这里每年有一半时间不受太阳照射For half the year, it*s angled away from the sun全然被黑暗和寒冬笼罩bringing darkness and winter.其余的半年有阳光照射For the other half, it swings towards the sun日时较长bringing longer days.正是这样的年度周期Its this annual cycle推动了地球上规模最大的生物大迁移that

41、 drives the greatest movements of life on Earth.而在北半球它带来了一年中最大的变迁And in the Northern Hemisphere, this brings the years biggest change. 春天Spring.（三月）三月下旬昼时延长的速度快过其他任何时节In late March, the days lengthen faster than at any other time.日照增加土地迅速升温Sunlight increases, quickly heating the land.由此引发暴雨Triggerin

42、g rainstorms.北半球骤然变暖The Northern Hemisphere suddenly becomes warmer也更加湿润and wetter.十分利于植物生长Perfect for plants.大地一片新绿The land turns green.一种动物以无敌之势尽享植物生长的繁荣And one animal exploits the boom in plant growth like no other.就在一周前A week ago这只埃塞俄比亚的沙漠蝗this desert locust in Ethiopia还只是一个怯生生和孤零零的小家伙而且几乎不怎么动地方

43、 was a shy, solitary creature that moved very little.现在可不然Not anymore.随着食物猛增When available food skyrockets蝗虫开启了集群模式locusts switch to swarm mode.它们开始行军They start marching并以十倍的速度繁殖and multiply ten times faster.随着蝗虫数目暴增As their numbers explode土地被啃得一片光秃they strip the land bare.所以为了寻找更多的食物So to find more

44、 and more food它们必须不断迁移they must keep moving.蝗群不断扩大The swarm grows.增长And grows.沿途植物被一扫而光Devouring every plant in its path.但这只是开始But this is just the start.陆路迁移的范围十分有限On foot, they can only move so far.若想去到更远的地方To go further就必须改换形式they must change form.蝗虫长出了翅膀They grow wings.如今沙漠蝗胃口更盛Now； with an even

45、 larger appetite整支大军腾空而起the entire army takes to the sky.它们进食They eat.飞行and fly.进食Eat.飞行and fly.它们聚集一处形成一只超级大军They come together to form a super swarm浩浩荡荡两千亿之众200 billion strong.这是70年来规模最大的蝗群The biggest seen in 70 years.它们每天消耗的食物It consumes 400,000 tons of food达 40 万吨♥every single day.所以若想全员果腹So if the whole swarm is to feed就必须迁移得更远更快it must move further and faster.蝗群日行100公里It travels 100 kilometers a day飞越农田与城镇across farmland and towns.席卷一个又一个国家It sweeps across country after country.
