We are here in Yellowstone National Park to follow some grey wolves and observe the deadly brilliance of the pack. They've learned to cooperate, hunting their prey with many acting as one pack. This mother grizzly knows how to protect its cub and itself. Stand your ground. Don't be intimidated. Don't let the grey wolves run you down.
現在我們正在黃石國家公園,跟拍一些蒼狼,一睹這些致命尤物的風采。蒼狼很懂如何合作,可以團結如一地捕捉獵物。這位熊媽媽知道如何保護自己和自己的孩子——堅守陣地。別慫,別讓蒼狼把你撲倒。
Grizzly mum stands up to the grey wolves. And eventually, they lose interest. Stand up, hold your ground. Wolves know that large prey can be dangerous if they fight back. What the wolves want is to get their prey on the run. Like, for example this herd of elk. Now the wolves can fan out over the herd, waiting for an old or sick or just unlucky elk to make a wrong move. The alpha male leads the hunt. He bides his time, directing his troops. And eventually, one elk stumbles.
熊媽媽站定在蒼狼群面前。最后,蒼狼失去了興趣。站定并堅守陣地。蒼狼知道如果他們進攻,大熊會很危險。蒼狼的目標是讓自己的獵物四處桃村,眼前的這個麋鹿群就是個例子。現在,蒼狼可以呈扇形包圍麋鹿群,然后只需要等待某只年事已高、病弱無力或者一時不走運的麋鹿走位失誤了。蒼狼首領指揮著這次的圍捕。他在等待時機,并指揮自己的團隊。最后,終于有一只麋鹿踉蹌栽倒。
The hungry wolves quickly surround their faltering victim. They swarm in for the kill, and then, the meal. Wolves are a vital part of a healthy Yellowstone echo-system. They filter out sick and weak animals in the herds and help scavengers survive but providing leftovers from their hunts. This coyote however is not a scavenger but also a competitor, who's been interfering with the kills of the pack. So once again, the wolves use cooperation to guard their turf and drive out the intruder.
