For a leaf-eater these islands are paradise.
對于食葉的來說這些島就是天堂
For others, though, life can be a little harder.
對于其它的動物,盡管生存有點艱難
Islanders only succeed by making the most of what's around them.
島民們唯一成功的機會就是充分利用周圍一切
Even spiders have their uses.
甚至蜘蛛都有自己的一套辦法
On Santa Catalina Island in the Solomons, a fisherman prepares to go fishing.
在所羅門群島的圣凱特麗娜島上,一名漁夫準備去捕魚
He seeks out a particular spider web, one that is strong and intricately spun.
他認出一張特別的蜘蛛網,一張有力而雜亂的結網
The fish he's after can't be caught on hooks...their mouths are too narrow.
他想得到的魚是不能用鉤子捕獲的...魚嘴太狹小了
So he has to be creative.
因此他必須要有創造性
No rod or reel, just a kite...and the spider silk, wound into a lure.
不用竿和卷軸 只用風箏...蜘蛛絲拉成一個誘餌..
The spider-silk lure hangs below the kite, flitting across the water like an insect.
風箏下面是蜘蛛絲誘餌垂,就像昆蟲一樣在水中掠過
Now he must steer the kite to where he thinks the fish are gathered.
現在他必須把風箏控制在 他認為魚群聚集的地方
Somewhere, just beneath the surface, shoals of needlefish lie in wait.
某處 在水面下 顎針魚群埋伏以待
He keeps a close eye on the kite - if it drops, a fish is snared. No hook is needed.
他留心注意風箏,如果它下跌,魚就中圈套了。無需魚鉤。
