This bobcat is one of the few hunters to remain active in winter.
山貓是少數冬天還在活動的捕獵者。
Most of his prey is now hidden beneath the snow that covers his entire territory.
他領地內的大多數獵物都隱藏在茫茫大雪之下。
He hunts by listening for the faintest sound of movement.
他通過辨認極其微弱的聲音來捕捉獵物。
And to prevent crunching footsteps from revealing his presence, he uses boulders as stepping stones.
為了避免踩雪的腳步聲暴露行蹤，他用巖石當落腳點。
A mouse. But one is not enough.
逮住一只老鼠。但這遠遠不夠。
The deeper the snow, the harder it is to detect prey,
積雪越深越難發現獵物，
and the rewards for the effort can be disappointing. To say the least.
努力捕食卻往往空手而歸。這么說毫不夸張。
By midwinter, the snow is so deep
深冬時節積雪實在太深，
that bobcats are forced to leave their territories to try and find easier hunting.
山貓被迫離開他們的領地，尋找更易于捕捉的獵物。
And this bobcat may be in luck.
但這只山貓運氣不錯。
