夜 The night.
一個暗影重重的世界 那裏藏著地球上超過一半的動物 A shadowy world that hides more than half the animals on our planet.
在過去的鏡頭中 我們只能匆匆一瞥動物的生活 Until now, cameras only offered a glimpse into their lives.
但憑借新一代科技 But with next-generation technology,
我們眼中的夜晚和白天一樣清晰 we can see the night as clear as day.

有了比人類眼睛敏感100倍的攝像機 With cameras a hundred times more sensitive than the human eye...
我們終於能夠捕捉到夜晚的美 we can now capture the beauty of night...
以全真色彩 in color.
怪譎的自然風光 Alien landscapes.
在黑夜裏活躍的奇特生物 Strange creatures brought to life by the darkness.
前所未見的行為 Unseen behaviors.
現在我們能追蹤動物的生活 Now we can follow the lives of animals
前往地球最後的荒野 in Earth's last true wilderness.
夜 The night.
夜色中的地球
肯尼亞馬賽馬拉平原上 太陽下山了 Sunset over the plains of Kenya's Maasai Mara.
旁 白 汤姆·希德勒斯顿
這是非洲最受保護的野生地點之一 One of Africa's most protected wild spaces.
也是地球上速度最快的陸生動物之家 And home to the fastest land animal on Earth...
獵豹 the cheetah.
人們一直認為 這種靈敏的貓科動物在白天捕獵 These agile cats have always been thought of as daylight hunters.
它們能在超過1公里外鎖定捕獵目標 They target prey from more than a kilometer away.
以每小時100公里以上的速度追捕 And chase it down at over 100 kilometers an hour.
在所有追捕中 成功獵殺的比率不到一半 Fewer than half of all hunts end in a kill.
這個傍晚 這只年輕的公豹失敗了 And this evening, this young male has blown it.
幸好它並非踽踽獨行 Fortunately, he's not alone.
獵豹通常獨自活動 Cheetahs are usually solitary.
但這只豹子有個兄弟 But he has a brother.
這兩隻四歲大的豹子從出生起就形影不離 Since the day they were born, these 4-year-olds have been inseparable.
它們合作守衛60平方公里的優質狩獵地盤 Working together, they defend a prime 60-square-kilometer hunting ground.
但今天晚上 失敗的捕獵意味著 兩兄弟浪費了寶貴的精力 But tonight, a failed hunt means the brothers have wasted precious energy
很快又要再次捕食 and must feed soon.
隨著日暮降臨 As dusk draws in...
它們成功捕殺的幾率似乎越來越低 it seems their chances of making a kill are fading.
但是整夜跟隨兩兄弟的腳步 But following these brothers through the night...
我們有不同的發現 tells a different story.
憑借低光度攝像機 With low-light cameras...
我們終於可以觀察獵豹的夜生活 we can now see the cheetah's nighttime world...
這為我們打開了全新視角 in a whole new way.
在月光下 Under moonlight...
獵豹過著不為人知的夜生活 cheetahs lead a secret nocturnal life.
獵豹兄弟在天黑後很愛玩耍 出乎意料的是 它們也很愛叫 The brothers are playful and surprisingly vocal after dark.
和大部分大貓不同 獵豹不能咆哮 Cheetahs can't roar like most big cats.
但它們能咕嚕叫 But they can purr.
家貓咕嚕叫是心滿意足的表現 In house cats, it's a sign of contentment.
但人們認為 獵豹的咕嚕叫也是為了鞏固關係 But it's thought cheetahs also purr to strengthen their bonds.
今晚 兩兄弟比任何時候都更需要彼此 And tonight, the brothers will need each other more than ever.
它們必須捕獵 They must hunt.
大部分貓科動物是夜行動物 Most cats are nocturnal.
但獵豹的眼睛生來更適應陽光 But cheetahs have eyes adapted for daylight.
所以在黑暗中 兩兄弟很難看清環境 So the brothers struggle to see in the darkness.
但如今我們的攝像機 讓我們比它們看得更清晰 But our cameras now allow us to see more than them.
被捕食的動物通常盡可能遠離捕獵者 Prey animals usually keep as far from predators as possible.
但我們驚訝地發現 到了夜晚 角馬另有一種自保的方式 But at night, wildebeest reveal a surprising way to stay safe.
無論獵豹兄弟去哪 Wherever the brothers go...
角馬群都跟著 the herd follows.
竅門在於讓獵豹處於視線所及之處 The trick is to keep the cheetahs in sight at all times...
同時盡可能遠離它們 while staying just far enough away...
以防需要逃跑 to make their escape.
但兩兄弟不是第一次玩這個遊戲 But the brothers have played this game before.
夜晚視力不佳的獵豹似乎不可能… It seems impossible that a cheetah with poor night vision...
在黑暗中進行高速追捕 would attempt a high-speed chase in the dark.
但人們近期發現 But it's recently been discovered...
獵豹有三分之一的捕殺是在夜晚進行的 that one-third of cheetah kills take place at night.
這只捕獵高手很快就征服了獵物 A skillful hunter, he swiftly overpowers his prey.
但接下來的情況讓我們看到 兩兄弟在天黑後的生活並不容易 But what happens next shows how tough life can be for the brothers after dark.
角馬群慢慢靠攏 The herd closes rank.
它們能夠共同將獵豹從獵物身邊趕走 Together, they can drive a cheetah off a kill.
它的兄弟來保護它了 His brother is there to protect him.
不過這只是麻煩的開始 But that's just the start of their problems.
幾秒鐘的功夫 獵物就吸引了一隻鬣狗 一種夜行性食腐動物 Within seconds, the kill attracts a hyena, a nocturnal scavenger.
鬣狗比獵豹強壯得多 Far stronger than a cheetah...
一隻就足以抵擋兩兄弟 one hyena can match both brothers.
它們必須為了守住獵物反抗 They must now fight to keep their kill.
但這個小偷不是獨自出動 But this thief is not alone.
馬賽馬拉的鬣狗群可能多達60只 In the Maasai Mara, hyenas live in gangs 60 strong.
獵豹十分之一的獵物會被偷走 And 1 in 10 cheetah kills are stolen.
在夜晚捕獵 Hunting at night...
是完全不同的 is a whole new world.
它們必須再次出擊 They will have to try again.
但在天黑後尋覓食物的動物不只有獵豹 But cheetahs aren't the only animals out here searching for food after dark.
在非洲的河岸上 On the banks of Africa's rivers...
超過十萬頭河馬離開水域 離開自己安全的家 over 100,000 hippos leave the safety of their watery homes...
踏上不尋常的暗夜之旅 to set out on an extraordinary nocturnal mission.
在白天 河馬是出了名慵懶的河中動物 By day, hippos are notoriously lazy river dwellers.
更喜歡在水中歇息 躲避熾熱的日光 Preferring to wallow in the water and hide from the hot sun.
但到了晚上 它們非常活躍 But at night, they are remarkably active.
它們循著踏過多次的路徑 跋涉10公里 在廣闊的大草原穿行 Well-trodden trails lead them ten kilometers out across the open savanna.
在清涼的晚上 它們出來牧食 They come here in the cool of night to graze.
每天晚上能咀食多達50公斤的草木 Chomping through up to 50 kilos of grass and plants per night.
通過這樣大量進食 By eating on such a scale,
這些秘密的夜間園丁扮演重要的角色 these secret night gardeners are playing a vital role...
塑造草原 shaping the grasslands
為這個豐富多元的生態系統貢獻肥料 and fertilizing this rich and diverse ecosystem.
遠離了安全的河流 So far from the safety of the river...
這裏藏著危險 it can be a little risky.
但如果你是個3噸重的除草機 But when you're a three-ton lawn mower...
就連非洲最有氣勢的捕獵者 even Africa's most imposing predator...
都要讓你三分 has to get out of your way.
沒想到它們在夜晚 竟能如此自由地享受草原 With their surprising free rein over the grasslands at night,
我們看到河馬的另一面 we are beginning to see hippos in a whole new light.
在晴朗的夜空和滿月下 Under clear skies and a full moon...
失去了辛苦得來的獵物 獵豹兄弟繼續捕獵 the cheetah brothers continue to hunt, having lost their hard-won kill.
但它們不是今晚唯一的獵豹 But they're not the only cheetahs out here tonight.
在它們的領地邊緣 On the fringes of their territory...
它們的姐妹正在休息 their sister is getting some rest.
這是它很需要的 And she needs it.
它有四隻一歲大的幼崽 She has four one-year-old cubs.
它們吃飽喝足 They're already fed.
它現在只想保證幼崽安全 All she wants to do now is keep them safe.
但它能感知到黑暗中的危險 But she can sense trouble in the darkness.
鬣狗 Hyenas.
它們能夠殺死年幼的獵豹 They can kill young cheetahs.
雖然它一歲大的幼崽看起來已經長大了 Her one-year-olds might look fully grown.
但它們比成年豹更輕 更弱 But they are lighter and weaker than adults.
還是移動地點比較安全 It's safer to move them on.
一整群鬣狗收到關於這個年輕家庭的消息 A whole gang has got wind of the young family.
鬣狗會爭搶領地 會將較弱的敵人趕出棲居地 Hyenas are territorial and will bully weaker rivals off their patch.
鬣狗漸漸接近 The hyenas close in...
包圍了獵豹一家 surrounding the family.
在所有非洲大貓中 獵豹幼崽的存活率最低 Young cheetahs have the lowest survival rate of any of the large African cats.
它們唯一的防禦手段 是讓自己看起來比實際更大 Their only defense is to make themselves look bigger than they are.
母親的最後一招是虛張聲勢 The mother's last resort is a bluff charge.
它快沒辦法了 She's running out of options.
但夜晚可能發生最意想不到的事 But the most unexpected things can happen at night.
一頭正值情緒暴烈期的年幼公象 A young bull elephant in must.
它重達4噸 睪酮水平 較平常高50倍 正大發雷霆 He's a four-ton giant, raging with 50 times more testosterone than usual.
這些吵鬧讓它忍無可忍 And he's had enough of all the commotion.
體型最大的陸生哺乳動物 救了速度最快的陸生哺乳動物 The fastest land mammal saved by the biggest.
我們才剛開始瞭解 We're only beginning to understand
夜晚非洲平原上發生的奇怪事情 the strange things that take place on the African plains at night.
回到兩兄弟的領地 Back in the brothers' territory...
它們的決心終於有回報了 their persistence has paid off.
它們再次成功 They've made another kill.
又一次 一個熟悉的身影趕到現場 Once again, a familiar character is quick on the scene.
但是這一次發生了不尋常的一幕 But this time, something unusual happens.
鬣狗沒有呼喚其他同伴 The hyena doesn't call in the rest of its gang.
而獵豹沒有為了獵物和來者對抗 And rather than fight for their kill...
而是決定分享 the brothers decide to share.
敵對的雙方竟暫時達成休戰協議 The two rivals accept an uneasy truce.
終於 兩兄弟填飽了肚子 Finally, the brothers get their fill.
獵豹一直被認為是白天活動的貓科動物 Cheetahs have long been considered daytime cats.
但如今我們才發現 But only now are we discovering...
它們有著複雜的夜生活 they live complex nocturnal lives.
每天晚上跟隨兩兄弟的腳步 Following these two brothers night after night...
我們發現世界上速度最快的陸生動物 shows a powerful but surprisingly fragile side...
在強大之餘 竟有如此脆弱的一面 to the world's fastest land animal.
在黑暗中拍攝獵豹捕獵 Filming cheetahs hunting in the dark...
是"夜色中的地球"團隊 遇到的最艱難的挑戰之一 was one of the Earth at Night team's hardest challenges.
我以前曾在白天拍攝獵豹捕獵 I've filmed cheetah hunts during the daytime before
内森·皮切尔 摄像师
但這是我第一次試圖 捕捉獵豹夜間捕獵的畫面 but this is the first time I've ever tried to get one at nighttime.
獵豹在滿月前後 成功捕獵的幾率更大 Cheetahs are more likely to make a kill around full moon.
但兩兄弟似乎有其他問題要考慮 But the brothers seemed to have other things on their minds.
對 它們來了 Yeah, they're coming.
大多數夜晚 它們都在用氣味標記自己的領地 They spent most nights scent marking their territory...
就像家貓一樣 just like house cats.
獵豹最常見的行為是標記樹木 從一棵樹到下一棵樹 A cheetah's biggest habit is going from one tree to the next tree...
再到下一棵樹 to the next tree.
我拍了很多這樣的畫面 And I've got a lot of them doing that.
跟隨兩兄弟在黑暗中的足跡 Following the brothers in the darkness...
團隊看到這些貓科動物 需要這麼大的空間才能生存 the team saw just how much space these cats need to survive.
但通常它們面對一個難以忽視的問題 But all too often, they were confronted by a glaring issue.
我們的攝像機會拍到城鎮 So what we're seeing with our cameras we're picking up towns,
也許在10公里以外 maybe 10 kilometers away.
這提醒了你 It just reminds you
這些非凡的捕獵動物 住在距離人類如此近的地方 how close these extraordinary predators are to living with people.
這些區域很適合 These areas are really good
作為這些捕獵動物的保護區 for the conservation and protection of these predators.
尼尔斯·摩根森 保育科学家
但與此同時 But at the same time,
隨著人口不斷增加 土地需求上升 with the increasing human population growth and demand for land,
它們仍然岌岌可危 you know, they are still vulnerable.
世界上僅存約七千隻野生獵豹 There are around 7,000 cheetahs left in the wild.
它們的分佈區域每年都在減少 And their range is decreasing year-on-year.
就算是地球上最受保護的野生地區 Even in one of the most protected wild places on Earth,
從我們的夜間攝像機上也能看到 人類永遠在不遠的地方 our night cameras show humans are never far away.
在黑夜裏跟隨兩兄弟 Following the brothers in the darkness...
團隊終於等到這個機會 the team finally got their chance.
再來1米左右 好的 慢慢開 Just another meter or so. Okay, just go slowly.
好的 沒問題 Okay, no problem.
好 似乎其中一隻開始奔跑了 大家穩住鏡頭 Okay, looks like one of them is starting to run in. Hold still, everyone.
拍到終於成功捕獵的一幕其實挺難得的 It was actually quite amazing to finally get it.
我都開始覺得我們不可能拍到了 I was starting to think we wouldn't.
你必須反應敏捷 You gotta be so quick and hope
希望這是對的時間、對的地點 that you're kind of in the right place at the right time.
鬣狗已經到場 The hyena are coming in already.
難以置信的速度 Incredibly fast.
捕獵技術高超 卻如此脆弱 An amazing hunter, but yet so fragile.
跟拍獵豹數月後 After months following the cheetahs...
團隊捕捉到科學界從未見過的行為 the team captured behaviors new to science.
借此 And in doing so...
也揭示了 revealed a secret nocturnal side...
