According to Geek.com, a new study conducted by the University of Bristol found that giraffes might prefer the company of friends during meals.
Geek.com網(wǎng)站消息稱，布里斯托大學(xué)的一項(xiàng)新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)長(zhǎng)頸鹿或許更喜歡和小伙伴一塊進(jìn)食。
It was already known that giraffes tend to choose a mate from within their social circle,
眾所周知，長(zhǎng)頸鹿傾向于從它們的社交圈中選擇伴侶，
and now evidence points to many pairs spending a high proportion of time together while searching for and eating food.
現(xiàn)在有證據(jù)表明很多長(zhǎng)頸鹿會(huì)花大部分時(shí)間和它們的配偶一同覓食。
One of the study's lead authors said that an advantage of eating with friends is that "they may be reliable at alarming you if a predator is around."
該研究的主要作者之一表示和同伴一起進(jìn)食的好處在于“當(dāng)附近有捕食者出沒(méi)時(shí)，它們可以提醒對(duì)方。”
The pairs may also share the same meal requirements, which makes their foraging and eating behaviors complementary.
配偶們或許還有著相同的進(jìn)餐要求，這讓它們的覓食和進(jìn)食行為互補(bǔ)。
