Hi guys, I'm Amberly, and this is "Animalist News."
嗨，大家好，我是 Amberly，欢迎来到“动物新闻”。
We hear so many stories about how us humans are destroying rhino populations.
我们听到过很多关于人类破坏犀牛数量的事件。
Finally I've got some good news to tell you all.
而现在我有一些好消息要带给你们。
A man named Liam Burrough became a baby rhino's guardian angel while driving near Kruger National Park in South Africa.
一位叫 Liam Burrough的男子成为了一头犀牛宝宝的守护天使，就在他在南非的克鲁格国家公园开车时。
As he drove closer to the park, the white rhino stumbled out onto the side of the road looking dehydrated and covered with wounds.
当他开近公园时，一只白色犀牛倒在路边看起来脱水了并且浑身都是伤口。
Luckily, Burrough was willing to stop and help the poor thing.
幸运的是， Burrough欣然的停了车并帮助了它。
He sent a friend to go get a park ranger while he stayed and poured water onto the calf.
他送朋友去应聘公园管理员的职务，而他却留了下来把水喂给小犀牛喝。
This is unfortunately where the story takes a dark turn.
不幸地，故事发生了不好的转折。
Later, on Facebook, Burrough said it was very obvious that the rhino was abandoned after its mother had been killed by poachers.
不久， Burrough在Facebook上说这很明显那只小犀牛是在它的妈妈被偷猎者杀死后被抛弃的。
He wrote, "The tragic irony of all this being that the calf had approached the very creatures who are responsible for her being orphaned."
他写到“这个悲剧事件意味着幼崽已经越来越可能成为孤儿。
Whew. That's deep.
啊诶！！！！！意蕴很深刻。
In 2014 alone, over 700 rhinos have been murdered by poachers.
仅是2014年，超过700头犀牛被偷猎人杀害。
This could be the worst year for rhinos ever, like in history ever.
这对于犀牛来说可能甚至是最差的一年，就像曾经的历史。
Why you ask?
为什么这么说？
Because we can't seem to convince people in other countries that rhino horns
因为我们似乎还没法说服其他国家的人们相信:犀牛角
don't cure medical conditions.
无法治愈疾病。
That's what it all boils down to, folks.
而这一切都要归结于人。
People being greedy.
人们的贪婪。
And although I hate poachers with a fiery passion, I can understand their motivations I guess.
虽然我很讨厌偷猎人炽烈的激情，但我想我能理解他们的动机。
They are being offered sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars for these horns.
他们经常因为这些角得到他们经常因为这些角得到
And if they're poor, well, like I said, I understand their motivations.
而且如果他们很穷，就像我说的，我可以理解他们的动力。
But it's still inexcusable.
但这依旧是不可原谅的。
And while we usually think of all the rhinos that have been killed, we often forget about the innocent babies that are left behind.
尽管我们经常想到所有已经被杀的犀牛，却常常忘记它们背后无辜的幼崽。
Thankfully, the baby rhino that Liam Burrough found is now resting easy at Care for Wild Africa's rehabilitation center and has officially been named Shadow.
庆幸的是，这只被 Liam Burrough 发现的犀牛幼崽正在非洲自然康复中心，在那受到照顾并休息地很好并被正式命名为阴影。
Ooh, so cute.
噢噢，真可爱。
Even better news is that his caretakers say there's a huge chance he'll be able to return to the wild.
甚至有更好的消息，他的管理者说它有很大的机会重回野外。
Southern white rhinos like Shadow have been a huge conservation success story.
南方白色犀牛就像影子一样受到很大的保护。
Northern white rhinos on the other hand —
而另一方面，北方白色犀牛——
well, there's only a handful of them left.
恩，只有少数可以离开。
So please share this video, and help raise awareness for our rhino friends.

into some of the wildest and coolest environments in North America.
进入美洲 一些最荒凉，环境最酷的地方。
Now one of the coolest defense mechanisms of this lizard is the fact that it can squirt blood from its eyes.
而现在蜥蜴最棒的防御机构之一实际上是它可以从眼中喷出血液。
What they'll do is push all the blood to the front of their face, and then blood vessels burst right at the corner of the eyes, and shoot streams of blood out.
它们要做的是把所有的血液推到它们的脸上，然后血管在眼角爆裂，使流出的血液射击。
I'll see you next time. Bye.
下次再见。拜拜。
