Maybe, jellyfish is not a tasty snack by most people’s idea. Once you were a loggerhead turtle, jellyfishes are top of your menu.
或许，水母不符合大家心中对美味的定义。不过，如果你是一只红海龟，水母便成了你的头号美食。
Though jellyfish can swim, they are not the submarines of the ocean. As a result, it is a piece of cake for the turtles to hunt them. And the loggerheads are brilliant jellyfish catcher. Jellyfishes mean banquet for them. Eating a large jellyfish can keep a turtle running for days. And the loggerheads are so excited when they meet with the jellyfishes.
尽管水母会游，但是总归他们不是海洋潜水艇。所以，对于超级水母猎手海龟来说，猎水母就是小菜一碟。水母是他们的盛宴。而且吃上一只大水母能够让海龟维持几天。所以，当红海龟遇上水母，他们异常兴奋。
And the best place to hunt jellyfishes is in the upwelling zone. In this area, nutrient-rich cold seawater is brought to the surface by the sea wind. And that encourages the growth of planktonic algae, and they are able to feed the sea animals. Obviously, jellyfishes are one of those mollusks which serve as appetizer for turtles. What weird taste they do have!
上升流区是海龟大快朵颐的绝佳猎食区。在这个区域，富含营养物质的冷海水被海风带到海洋表面。而且有利于浮游生物的生长，同样也有一些海洋生物以此为食。显然，水母就是海龟的大爱软体动物中的一种。他们的口味真奇怪！
Indeed, the upwelling areas are turtles’ favorite ones. Why do the turtles find out the specific area? Because those areas are scattered and difficult to locate. As reported, researchers found out that upwelling zones tend to stink. But the turtles love them to death. And the turtles can trace the smell to locate their appetizer.
确实，上流区是海龟们的最爱。但是，海龟是怎样找到那些区域呢？因为那些区域既分散又很困难定位。据报道，研究者发现那些上流区发出难闻的味道。但是海龟爱死它们啦！所以，海龟能够追踪味道找到它们的美食。
Exactly, many sailors said that the unpleasant smell flew into their noses irresistibly. More specifically, it seems like cabbage. Poor cabbage, has been treated with contempt in this way, and even by the turtles! When the planktonic algae are being eaten, they do release that smell which attract turtles and act as their hunting guide.
确实，很多水手说那股味道自然间就扑鼻而来。更具体地说来，像是股卷心菜味儿。可怜的卷心菜，就这样被大家嫌弃啦！而且还是被乌龟！555555！当浮游生物被吃掉的时候，他们确实发出那种味道。那个味道就是向导吸引为美食而来的海龟们。
As we know, jellyfish seems like beautiful and gentle one. However, it is one of the poison creatures. Under its fimbriatum, the thin and long tentacles are its digestive organs as well as its powerful weapons. Moreover, jellyfish can venom and their prey will die after being paralyzed. How could turtles hunt the jellyfishes which serve as their dinner. Secret Unmasking: the turtles start from the heads of jellyfishes and keep themselves away from their toxic feelers smartly. How clever they are!
大家都知道水母虽然长相美丽温顺，但其实是种有毒生物。在伞状体的下面，那些细长的触手是它的消化器官，也是它的强有力武器。而且，水母能够射出毒液，猎物会迅速麻痹而死。那海龟怎么搞定它的盘中餐呢？揭秘：它是从水母的头部“开刀”的，因而巧妙地远离了水母含有剧毒的触角。海龟们咋这么聪明咧！（点赞走起）
How hard-working the turtles are! It does accord with the old saying that the wages of avarice are death. However, if we feed turtles with cabbages, will they feel happy?
海龟们太拼了！真是应了那句老话儿：人为财死，鸟为食亡。如果我们给海龟喂卷心菜，他们会高兴吗？
