天色破晓 Dawn arrives,
花朵困住了它的俘虏一整天
but the flower remains unchanged, holding its captives through the day.
次日的夜色洒向了大地 丛林女巫再次释放它的热情
As the second night falls, the witch stirs again.
一会儿，花朵珍贵的金色花粉 In a matter of minutes, the flower's precious golden pollen
从雄蕊中挣扎而出并下坠 squeezes from the stamens and begins to fall,
阵阵洒落在被俘获的甲虫身上 showering onto the captive beetles below.
现在，囚徒终于被释放 Now, at last, the prisoners are free to go.
花壁的质地变得粗糙起来 The flower's wall changes texture, becoming rough
提供了理想的逃离天梯 to provide the ideal escape ladder.
满载花粉奔向自由 Loaded with their pollen parcels, they can now climb to freedom,
正好其它的丛林女巫即将绽放 just as other forest witches are beginning to open.
无法抗拒的味道引诱甲虫再次造访
Seduced by the irresistible perfume, the beetles are sure to pay a visit,
保证了授粉得以施行 so ensuring pollination,
也因此保证了这种硕大的 发出难闻气味的花得以传宗接代
and another generation of incredibly big, smelly flowers.
晨曦乍现 森林之鸟在树荫地下宣告它们的领地
As dawn arrives, forest birds claim their territories in the canopy.
鸟鸣声 BIRDSONG
这儿有一种声音在其中显得格外突兀 But there's one call which stands out among the rest -
森林交响乐的艺术大师 virtuoso of the forest symphony.
奇异的声音响起 STRANGE CALL RINGS OUT
是一只长臂猿 It's a gibbon.
起伏的叫声持续不断 UNDULATING CALL CONTINUES
在云南中南部偏远的山脉之中 Living on a remote mountain range in south central Yunnan
居住着中国的珍稀动物 野生长臂猿群
is one of the few remaining wild gibbon populations in China.
无量山里的黑冠长臂猿 The black-crested gibbons of Wuliangshan.
他们活动范围局限在这些山林之中 They are confined to these forest mountains,
如此偏远而又陡峭的环境 以至于少有猎人光顾
so remote and steep that few hunters ever come here.
对它们的社会结构来说 无量山的长臂猿是如此的与众不同
The Wuliangshan gibbons are unsual for their social structure.
大多数长臂猿生活在一个小家族之中 Most gibbons live in small family groups
由交配的双方和他们的后代所组成 consisting of a mating pair and their offspring.
但是这些长臂猿也过着群居的生活 But these gibbons exist in troops.
一只雄性长臂猿能够与 两只到三只的雌性交配
One male can have two or sometimes three females
而且这些雌性都能怀胎生子 and all of these can have young.
通常这些小长臂猿都生活在族群之中 Often even the juveniles stay in the community.
幼崽的吱吱声 BABY SQUEAKS
惊鸿一瞥 这只小长臂猿也许刚出生了一天 Rarely glimpsed, this baby may be only a day old.
如果安全度过了婴儿期 它将拥有一个充满希望的未来
If it survives infancy, then it has a promising future
与它组织严密的家庭共同生活在 宛如世外桃源的山谷中
