1
00:00:07,257 --> 00:00:09,843
地球是如此壯麗

2
00:00:10,636 --> 00:00:13,680
使我們很容易忽略其中的小小生物

3
00:00:15,766 --> 00:00:17,643
但若仔細觀察

4
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:20,562
就會發現一個未曾探索過的世界

5
00:00:22,648 --> 00:00:24,983
這個世界的小英雄們

6
00:00:26,485 --> 00:00:27,861
與小怪獸們

7
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:31,406
需要不可思議的超能力

8
00:00:34,618 --> 00:00:40,040
幫助牠們戰勝巨大的生存危機

9
00:00:43,293 --> 00:00:48,757
《大自然小生物》

10
00:00:50,968 --> 00:00:52,386
細細粒的生活並不容易

11
00:00:56,974 --> 00:00:58,642
要活在巨人國裏

12
00:00:58,725 --> 00:01:00,853
（旁白，保羅活特）

13
00:01:00,936 --> 00:01:02,938
經常被踐踏

14
00:01:06,024 --> 00:01:08,151
有時甚至更慘

15
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:17,744
不過有些地方是大型動物無法踏足的

16
00:01:20,038 --> 00:01:23,834
那裏讓細細粒的動物佔盡優勢

17
00:01:31,300 --> 00:01:32,509
天氣酷熱

18
00:01:34,011 --> 00:01:35,220
極度乾燥

19
00:01:37,556 --> 00:01:38,807
狂風猛打

20
00:01:41,768 --> 00:01:44,271
這些沙丘令動物難以棲息

21
00:01:46,481 --> 00:01:48,525
只有夠醒目

22
00:01:50,068 --> 00:01:51,528
夠細粒

23
00:01:53,530 --> 00:01:55,449
才有機會活下去

24
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:10,589
《沙丘》

25
00:02:16,094 --> 00:02:20,307
這是地球上其中一個最難以棲息的地方

26
00:02:22,768 --> 00:02:27,814
納米比沙漠的沙丘 是地球上最大且歷史最悠久的

27
00:02:28,857 --> 00:02:30,734
而且還會隨風變化

28
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:37,616
短短六個月，整個景觀就不同了

29
00:02:44,331 --> 00:02:45,582
即使如此

30
00:02:46,542 --> 00:02:51,922
微小的動物必須 在這片遼闊的沙漠中活下去

31
00:02:54,633 --> 00:02:56,134
納米比亞變色龍

32
00:02:57,052 --> 00:02:59,012
手掌般大

33
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,017
牠好像不太適應在沙丘的生活

34
00:03:05,060 --> 00:03:06,728
其他小動物就不同了

35
00:03:11,024 --> 00:03:12,484
鏟吻蜥

36
00:03:13,569 --> 00:03:15,279
只有牠四分之一的大小

37
00:03:15,362 --> 00:03:19,950
一秒內可以在熱騰騰的沙地上 跑足足3米距離

38
00:03:25,747 --> 00:03:26,957
至於變色龍呢？

39
00:03:28,792 --> 00:03:30,002
不太能跑

40
00:03:35,215 --> 00:03:37,676
牠的腳是專門用來抓樹枝的

41
00:03:38,886 --> 00:03:40,012
而不是沙子

42
00:03:54,943 --> 00:04:00,616
但這個不太像遊牧者的小動物 為了一項重任在沙丘上遊走

43
00:04:03,827 --> 00:04:05,287
尋找伴侶

44
00:04:06,246 --> 00:04:09,249
在沙漠的某處

45
00:04:17,423 --> 00:04:20,093
飛越沙漠比在路上行走簡單得多

46
00:04:26,183 --> 00:04:28,977
沙雞非常適合在沙丘生活

47
00:04:30,729 --> 00:04:32,564
不過這裏沒有任何水源

48
00:04:35,692 --> 00:04:40,656
所以這些鳥兒 每天都要踏上艱鉅之旅，著手去尋找水源

49
00:04:49,748 --> 00:04:51,375
飛行80公里

50
00:04:53,502 --> 00:04:55,712
牠們來到一個截然不同的地方

51
00:04:59,842 --> 00:05:02,386
大隻又飢餓的獵食者

52
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:14,648
就如其他蜂擁至此的沙雞一樣

53
00:05:16,191 --> 00:05:17,734
這隻雄性沙雞需要喝水

54
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,460
所以牠耐心等待

55
00:05:47,723 --> 00:05:49,683
剛好有足夠的時間喝一口

56
00:06:06,033 --> 00:06:11,121
雄性沙雞回到畢生伴侶身邊 在沙丘之間以石頭築巢

57
00:06:14,249 --> 00:06:16,877
這雙愛侶輪流孵蛋

58
00:06:17,794 --> 00:06:19,838
讓另一半可以飛去喝水

59
00:06:24,092 --> 00:06:26,970
不過生活即將要變得更加複雜了

60
00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:31,099
牠們的蛋即將要孵化

61
00:06:32,017 --> 00:06:36,355
初生雛鳥會需要水分，否則會被太陽曬死

62
00:06:44,613 --> 00:06:49,326
正午時，降溫變成了一件生死攸關的事

63
00:06:53,288 --> 00:06:56,416
這次變色龍就有備而來，應付自如了

64
00:07:00,212 --> 00:07:03,966
牠把自身的皮膚變成白色，反射太陽光

65
00:07:17,479 --> 00:07:23,235
不過鏟吻蜥一如既往地快人一步

66
00:07:24,361 --> 00:07:26,530
以有型的舞姿

67
00:07:38,166 --> 00:07:42,171
沙子的表面溫度能達至攝氏70度的高溫

68
00:07:43,922 --> 00:07:47,676
不過每高1厘米，溫度就低10度

69
00:07:49,178 --> 00:07:52,764
所以牠只要舉起腳就能夠迅速降溫

70
00:08:00,856 --> 00:08:02,399
要是太熱

71
00:08:03,483 --> 00:08:06,904
牠像鏟子一樣的鼻就能救牠一命了

72
00:08:11,408 --> 00:08:15,370
在20厘米之下，是舒適的攝氏30度

73
00:08:21,627 --> 00:08:25,255
這隻蛛蜂在熱力下泰然自若

74
00:08:27,508 --> 00:08:32,304
牠能夠以敏銳的觸鬚 偵測到躲在沙裏的生物

75
00:08:51,990 --> 00:08:53,825
長度與萬字夾相若

76
00:08:53,909 --> 00:08:58,705
牠會挖開超過兩桶沙子，只為掘出獵物

77
00:09:12,344 --> 00:09:14,096
金輪蜘蛛

78
00:09:19,184 --> 00:09:21,228
蛛蜂的蜇刺會使對方全身無力

79
00:09:23,313 --> 00:09:25,524
金輪蜘蛛咬一口就能致命

80
00:09:30,946 --> 00:09:35,784
當這兩種沙漠鬥士打起來 蜘蛛的勝算非常低

81
00:09:43,417 --> 00:09:44,585
不過牠確實有…

82
00:09:46,295 --> 00:09:48,881
一流的逃脫計劃

83
00:10:01,435 --> 00:10:03,145
脫離蛛蜂的視線範圍

84
00:10:09,026 --> 00:10:10,652
同時脫離危險

85
00:10:17,409 --> 00:10:18,619
幾乎吧

86
00:10:22,456 --> 00:10:23,665
約莫下午3點

87
00:10:24,708 --> 00:10:26,293
沙丘空無一物

88
00:10:27,461 --> 00:10:30,881
氣溫達至攝氏50度

89
00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:39,598
到傍晚時分，酷熱的氣溫才會開始下降

90
00:10:43,268 --> 00:10:48,023
足以讓一群年輕的狒狒到沙丘邊緣探險

91
00:10:52,694 --> 00:10:53,987
貪玩又好奇

92
00:10:56,615 --> 00:10:58,450
但並不得人鍾意

93
00:11:06,458 --> 00:11:08,585
沙漠雨蛙是夜行性動物

94
00:11:10,546 --> 00:11:13,382
吵醒牠們等於自找麻煩

95
00:11:19,471 --> 00:11:21,306
只有一顆高爾夫球的大小

96
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:25,644
不過非常有個性

97
00:11:40,784 --> 00:11:43,203
還有一點時間可以睡個午覺

98
00:11:43,537 --> 00:11:47,332
等白天的動物讓路給夜行性動物

99
00:11:55,215 --> 00:11:56,633
隨著黑夜降臨

100
00:11:57,926 --> 00:11:59,261
氣溫也隨之下降

101
00:12:04,683 --> 00:12:06,602
沙漠就變得更加繁忙了

102
00:12:07,352 --> 00:12:09,146
還更加嘈吵

103
00:12:15,319 --> 00:12:16,904
為疲憊的動物奏起的搖籃曲

104
00:12:20,657 --> 00:12:23,202
同時是夜行性動物的起床鬧鐘

105
00:12:26,163 --> 00:12:29,249
也是獵食者的晚餐提醒

106
00:12:33,670 --> 00:12:38,050
倉鴞仔細搜查沙丘每個角落 細聽小獵物的聲音

107
00:12:44,264 --> 00:12:46,183
不過有更狡猾的獵食者

108
00:12:47,392 --> 00:12:48,769
潛行在下方

109
00:12:52,856 --> 00:12:53,941
遊走…

110
00:12:55,192 --> 00:12:56,401
在沙子之下

111
00:13:06,119 --> 00:13:08,205
沙漠之鯊

112
00:13:20,843 --> 00:13:22,719
納米比金毛鼴

113
00:13:24,721 --> 00:13:28,433
完全失明，體型比一顆蛋還要小

114
00:13:35,232 --> 00:13:39,319
牠過大的頭骨能夠作為天線接受器

115
00:13:39,403 --> 00:13:41,697
接收白蟻所發出的劈劈啪啪聲

116
00:13:43,866 --> 00:13:46,118
白蟻是牠的水分來源與食糧

117
00:13:47,452 --> 00:13:49,872
只要牠每晚捉到60隻就可以了

118
00:13:53,292 --> 00:13:56,128
其他夜行性動物也加入這個盛宴

119
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:10,517
睡眼惺忪的雨蛙化身為白蟻終結者

120
00:14:21,403 --> 00:14:23,989
不過白蟻也會咬過去反擊

121
00:14:31,747 --> 00:14:34,875
而牠那個大頭就讓牠難以撥走白蟻了

122
00:14:54,436 --> 00:14:58,273
金毛鼴只能鑽進沙子裏 避開正在咬牠的白蟻

123
00:15:05,155 --> 00:15:07,115
以及其他未被看見的危險

124
00:15:25,717 --> 00:15:26,844
清晨時分

125
00:15:29,263 --> 00:15:32,391
變色龍又餓又凍

126
00:15:34,977 --> 00:15:39,398
為了暖身 牠把身體對著陽光的部分變為黑色

127
00:15:46,196 --> 00:15:48,282
所以等到有甲蟲出現時

128
00:15:52,119 --> 00:15:54,621
變色龍就準備就緒了

129
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:07,843
新手級的錯誤

130
00:16:13,348 --> 00:16:17,352
這種甲蟲非常難食

131
00:16:17,436 --> 00:16:20,272
沒有變身龍會重蹈覆轍

132
00:16:29,948 --> 00:16:33,118
擬步甲蟲前面還有一段非常精彩的旅程

133
00:16:36,663 --> 00:16:43,295
350米的沙丘對於一隻 只有瓶蓋大小的昆蟲來說並不容易爬

134
00:16:47,216 --> 00:16:48,759
不過一切努力都是值得的

135
00:16:53,764 --> 00:16:57,309
有時候朝早沙丘會被一層霧籠罩著

136
00:17:02,105 --> 00:17:04,983
正是這隻小甲蟲所期待的

137
00:17:08,819 --> 00:17:12,782
牠背脊上的淺坑洞讓周圍的薄霧凝結

138
00:17:17,871 --> 00:17:19,665
並流到牠的嘴裏

139
00:17:26,003 --> 00:17:29,132
牠就這樣憑空變出水分

140
00:17:37,474 --> 00:17:40,102
牠們幾乎可以飲用自身一半體重的水分

141
00:17:43,772 --> 00:17:45,524
下山的甲蟲

142
00:17:47,025 --> 00:17:49,653
比上山時的甲蟲更加美味多汁

143
00:17:55,951 --> 00:17:59,079
雖然變色龍不像其他物種那樣適應環境

144
00:17:59,663 --> 00:18:01,748
但要是比不過牠們

145
00:18:03,208 --> 00:18:04,376
那就吃下肚吧

146
00:18:24,938 --> 00:18:26,982
沙雞的雛鳥要孵化了

147
00:18:29,568 --> 00:18:33,238
即使在朝早太陽不太猛烈 牠們還是需要母親的庇蔭

148
00:18:35,991 --> 00:18:39,411
氣溫很快就會熱得受不了 牠們沒有水分就會無法生存

149
00:18:43,540 --> 00:18:45,334
沙雞爸爸是牠們的唯一希望

150
00:18:48,795 --> 00:18:52,424
牠找到一個新的水坑 附近的大型獵食者也比較少

151
00:18:54,927 --> 00:18:56,428
不過這麼細隻的鳥

152
00:18:58,764 --> 00:19:02,059
即使在這些較溫和的大型動物中遊走 也是頗困難的

153
00:19:20,035 --> 00:19:23,247
載水回去給雛鳥喝就難上加難了

154
00:19:34,216 --> 00:19:35,342
蒼鷹

155
00:19:36,385 --> 00:19:38,053
來狩獵口渴的沙雞

156
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:07,457
為救牠的雛鳥，沙雞爸爸冒上生命危險

157
00:20:23,015 --> 00:20:25,559
以肚皮上獨特的吸水羽毛

158
00:20:25,642 --> 00:20:29,938
雄性沙雞所吸收的水分 足以裝滿一隻小酒杯

159
00:20:35,110 --> 00:20:37,237
準備好帶回去給雛鳥飲用

160
00:20:54,213 --> 00:20:57,674
兩小時的路程，裝好裝滿

161
00:21:07,142 --> 00:21:08,477
剛好趕上

162
00:21:10,771 --> 00:21:14,525
雛鳥從爸爸的羽毛上飲用第一啖水

163
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,449
牠接下來的兩個月也要冒險走同樣的路

164
00:21:22,533 --> 00:21:24,535
直到雛鳥識得飛為止

165
00:21:37,506 --> 00:21:40,467
變色龍的任務引領牠來到納米比亞蜜瓜叢

166
00:21:42,052 --> 00:21:43,929
一個遮蔭的好地方

167
00:21:47,391 --> 00:21:49,893
好彩的話

168
00:21:51,144 --> 00:21:52,187
還能夠認識到雌性

169
00:21:57,818 --> 00:21:59,903
難道這就是牠任務成功的一刻嗎？

170
00:22:09,162 --> 00:22:12,040
為表達情感，雌性變色龍變換顏色

171
00:22:17,546 --> 00:22:19,089
並舞動起來

172
00:22:43,906 --> 00:22:47,034
但似乎雄性一方並非牠心中想要的對象

173
00:22:50,913 --> 00:22:53,290
不過在這裏要尋找伴侶是非常困難的

174
00:22:54,750 --> 00:22:56,418
或許牠只能退而求其次了

175
00:23:04,843 --> 00:23:06,386
雌性變色龍不會一直留在這裏

176
00:23:09,598 --> 00:23:11,433
牠不久後就會下蛋

177
00:23:15,771 --> 00:23:17,314
雄性一方任務完成

178
00:23:18,857 --> 00:23:20,234
同時精疲力盡

179
00:23:32,788 --> 00:23:35,916
經過五千五百萬年的進化

180
00:23:35,999 --> 00:23:40,170
