昆虫档案英文版
《昆虫档案》之《圣甲虫》英文版:
Scarab, the family Scarabidae. Living in the grasslands, mountains, deserts and jungles, as long as there are animal feces, there will be their industrious figure. In the vast world of beetles, the scarab is the most magical ——. Their bodies have armor shining in bronze or weak green or dark blue. In ancient Egypt, the beetle was used as a totem, and when the phharaoh died, his heart was cut out and replaced with a stone filled with the scarab.
Holy beetles live in the grasslands, high mountains, deserts and jungles, as long as there is animal excrement place, there will be their industrious figure. Every day, they remove more than millions of tons of feces. Without this natural garbage scavenger, our planet will become uncontrollable.
What inspired the insect to take on the task was the great force of survival. Whenever some mammals excrete their feces to the ground, the beetles begin to compete fiercely for the resource. Each stool is itself a microscopic universe, and a lot of holy beetles will gather on this large piece of stool, sweeping it away in more than ten minutes.
翻译:
圣甲虫,金龟子科。
生活在草原、高山、沙漠以及丛林,只要有动物粪便的地方,就会有他们勤劳的身影。
在广大的甲虫世界里,圣甲虫是最神奇的——它们的身体外面套着闪出青铜色或者弱翠绿或者深蓝色光芒的盔甲。
在古代埃及,人们将这种甲虫作为图腾之物,当法老死去时,他的心脏就会被切出来,换上一块缀满圣甲虫的石头。
圣甲虫生活在草原、高山、沙漠以及丛林,只要有动物粪便的地方,就会有他们勤劳的身影。
每天,它们清除的粪便有数百万吨以上。
没有这种大自然天生的垃圾清除者,我们这个星球将变得无法收拾。
激发这种昆虫承担起这项任务的,是生存的巨大力量。
每当有哺乳动物将其粪便排泄到地上时,甲虫之间便会开始为争夺这种资源而进行的残酷竞争。
每块粪便本身就是一个微观宇宙,会有许许多多的圣甲虫集合在这一大块粪便上,在十几分钟之内将其一扫而光。
