四川唐家河自然保护区有种“大鸟”太厉害了。2021年4月,它被拍到抓着一只野猪在空中飞翔;几个月后,又被拍到抓着一只小麂飞天遨游。这只“大鸟”,就是有“空中霸主”“猛禽之王”称号的金雕。金雕属于国家一级重点保护动物。它有着高傲品性和强壮而巨大的翅膀,锐利的目光,宛如匕首般足以致命的利爪,处处都显示着它的强壮且极具威慑力。
There's a big bird in Tangjiahe Nature Reserve in Sichuan. In April 2021, it was photographed clutching a wild boar in the air, and a few months later, it was photographed holding a muntjac in the sky.The Golden eagle, known as the king of raptorsWith its huge wings, sharp eyes and dagger-like claws,is a national first-class protected animal in China.
张开双翅翱翔于高空中,金雕利用上升热气流攀升到天空高处以节省体力。它御风飞行,探视广阔领域。得益于其视网膜上为数众多的感光细胞,金雕能在数百米之遥精确地确定猎物的位置。一旦锁定目标,金雕便鼓动翅膀下降并转向猎物的方向,然后收拢双翅,贴近地面飞行,出其不意地扑向猎物。
The golden eagle uses the rising thermals to soarhigh into the sky to save energy.Thanks to the numerous light-sensitive cells in its retina, the golden eagle can pinpoint the location of its prey from hundreds of meters away. Once it locates its target, itflaps its wings and descends and turns tothe direction of its prey, then gathers its wings and flies close to the ground, swooping down unexpectedly on its prey.
