It always starts with one bream who, eyes  pointing downward, notices a suspicious dimple in the sand.

它总是从一只鳊鱼开始，它的眼睛向下，注意到沙子上有一个可疑的酒窝。

SABRINA IMBLER: The deck, it seems, is stacked  against the breams.

Sometimes the breams only  knew to spit after one of their own was taken, snatched and dragged deep into the sand.

有时，只有在自己的一条鲷鱼被抓住、抓住并拖进沙子深处后，鲷鱼才知道吐口水。

The breams swim around the reef to forage but never veer far from their home range, refusing  to be forced out.

Though the breams may see the expanse of  black sand below them as empty, the worms lurk underneath in their mucus-lined burrows,  antennae feeling for flesh the worms can grab.

尽管鳊鱼可能会认为它们下面的黑沙是空的，但蠕虫却潜伏在它们充满粘液的洞穴中，触角感觉蠕虫可以抓住的肉。

Yeah. So, we've got some whole sea bream like you get from the supermarket. They've been scaled and scored, we're gonna season them up, olive oil, salt and put them on the grill.

是的。我们准备了一些从超市买来的整条鲷鱼。它们已经被刮鳞、切过了，我们要给它们调味，用橄榄油，盐，然后放在烤架上。

SABRINA IMBLER: The scientists marveled at  the bream's collective action, approaching and mobbing a predator such as a sand striker invites  real danger: losing a fin, a patch of scales, even dying.

萨布丽娜·因布勒：科学家们对鳊鱼的集体行动感到惊讶，它们接近并围攻沙鳊这样的捕食者会带来真正的危险：失去鳍、一片鳞片，甚至死亡。

While his peers might have been trying their luck with a potential squeeze in the dark corner of a parquet-floored hall, he was sitting under the moonlight with a rod, eager to catch a handsome carp, perch or bream.

当他的同龄人们或许在镶木地板的大厅角落里试图与潜在的伴侣交流时，他却坐在月光下，手握钓竿，渴望捕捉一条漂亮的鲤鱼、鲈鱼或鳊鱼。

SABRINA IMBLER: When the scientists published the paper on the monocle bream, they called  their behavior " novel." And it was, in the sense that humans had never observed it before, but had we even thought to look?

SABRINA IBLER：当科学家发表有关单眼鲷的论文时，他们称其行为“新颖”。从某种意义上说，人类以前从未观察到过它，但我们有没有想过去看看？

Mama was a much better seamstress than I--But if the Lord sends forth a strangely agreeable slave to the sewing machine, surely it is pleasanter and more profitable to spend one's time on the lovely lake, dangling a bamboo pole for bream.

妈妈是一个比我好得多的女裁缝——但如果上帝派出一个出奇地讨人喜欢的缝纫机奴隶，那么在美丽的湖上消磨时光，悬垂竹竿钓鲷鱼，肯定会更愉快，也更有利可图。
