Welcome to our program, Dr Peterson. Let's see what questions we've got for you today. Here's one: Can cats see color?
歡迎來到我們的節目，彼得森博士。讓我們看看今天有什么問題要問你。這里有一個問題:貓能看見顏色嗎?
Sort of. In the wild, many cats hunt at night because their eyes are designed for low light. Your cat can't see bright colors such as red and green.
能看見一部分。在野外，許多貓在晚上獵食，因為它們的眼睛是為低光而設計的。你的貓看不到鮮艷的顏色，比如紅色和綠色。
But it picks up more shades of blue, yellow, and grey than humans do.
但它比人類更能識別藍色、黃色和灰色。
And why do cats give dead birds to their owners?
為什么貓會把死鳥送給它們的主人呢?
When your cat drops a dead bird at your feet, she isn't bringing you a present.
當你的貓把一只死鳥扔到你腳邊時，她不會給你帶禮物。
Most cats just drag food home because it's a safe place to eat.
大多數貓只是把食物拖回家，因為家是一個安全的進食地方。
A cat's mom also brings home things to her children to help them practice hunting.
貓的媽媽也會帶一些東西回家給她的孩子，幫助他們練習打獵。
So, a female cat without children may bring these "treats" to her owner instead.
所以，沒有孩子的母貓可能會把這些“零食”送給它的主人。
You may not like them, but at least you don't have to write her a thank-you note.
你可能不喜歡它們，但至少你不用給她寫感謝信。
