So the sanctuary ought naturally to take the wildest, swampiest, roughest and most forsaken piece of waste land anywhere about the town.
自然而然，保護(hù)區(qū)應(yīng)該選擇最荒野，擁有最多沼澤地，最貧瘠，最被人遺忘的城鎮(zhèn)附近土地。
If there is one wetter, darker, more abandoned piece of country near at hand than any other,
如果鄉(xiāng)村目前真的擁有沼澤地，最荒原的土地，
choose that for the sanctuary. If it contains hills and a stream, a pond, or a spring,
那么就選擇這里作為保護(hù)區(qū)，如果這里還有山有水，有湖泊或小溪，
as well as trees and a sunny opening, so much the better. If there happens to be any waste land about the town,
以及樹木和明媚的陽光，那就更好了，如果城鎮(zhèn)周圍恰好有荒地，
then that is the best place for a wildlife sanctuary.
那也是野生動(dòng)物保護(hù)區(qū)的最佳選擇。
Such land is cheap, and many an owner will be glad to give it outright for sanctuary purposes.
這些土地非常廉價(jià)，許多擁有者非常愿意馬上用作保護(hù)區(qū)。
If the leaders of the community are led to see that a wild place for wild life
如果社區(qū)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人認(rèn)識(shí)到野外棲息地對(duì)于野生動(dòng)物
is just as necessary as a cultivated park for cultivated things, then the town might make of such waste land a public sanctuary.
就如同栽培事物需要一個(gè)栽培花園一樣重要時(shí)，那么城鎮(zhèn)就有可能將荒地利用成公共保護(hù)區(qū)。
But if there is a local bird club or any other organization interested in the nation-wide movement for conservation of wild things,
如果當(dāng)?shù)赜续B類俱樂部，或者任何對(duì)全國性野生動(dòng)物保護(hù)運(yùn)動(dòng)感興趣的組織，
then that is the organization to take over the purchase and upkeep of the sanctuary.
那么這類組織可以負(fù)責(zé)購買和保護(hù)區(qū)的維護(hù)。
Any amount of land will do, but the more the better, for wild life requires considerable room.
土地的多少都可以，越多越好，野生動(dòng)物需要廣闊的空間。
It likes a stretch of woods so deep that it cannot see daylight on the distant side.
它們喜歡一片茂密的叢林，從遠(yuǎn)處望去看不到日光。
It likes ripe seeds enough by the river for the bobolinks and redwings to flock in, and for the breeze to play in,
它們喜歡河邊的成熟種子，食米鳥和白眉歌鶇會(huì)簇?fù)碓谶@里，在微風(fēng)中玩耍，
making running ripples all summer long. There must be room for the fox, the skunk, the snake,
整個(gè)夏天都可以看到河邊的漣漪，一定要給狐貍，臭鼬以及蛇留下空間，
and then the muskrat swimming down the silvery surface of the pond.
麝鼠可以在銀白色的湖泊上滑行。
The sanctuary must be big enough for all these wild things to move about.
保護(hù)區(qū)一定能夠讓所有野生動(dòng)物有空間移動(dòng)。
