一个小宝宝!
Oh, a baby!
蚜虫们一出生
As quick as aphids are pumped out,
就被吃光光
they get gobbled up.
纯天然的害虫防治
Natural pest control.
而在任何一只蚜虫有机会飞走之前
And before anyone thinks of flying away,
老妈会把它们处理掉
mom takes them out.
接下来的整个夏天里 这就是虫虫们的生活
For the rest of the summer, this is a real bug's life.
每只虫都来去匆匆
Everyone's rushing to make the most
为求妥善利用它们所剩不多的时间
of what little time they have left.
就在夏天即将结束时
As summer draws to a close,
我们的蜘蛛不再抓苍蝇了
our spider stops catching flies.
所有的辛苦劳动都是为了这一刻
All that hard work, building to this moment.
柔软、强韧
Soft, strong,
高高地远离所有危险
and high out of harm's way,
它正在为它五百颗宝贵的卵
she's spinning a tiny cradle...
编织一个小小的摇篮
for 500 precious eggs.
它是活不过冬天的
She won't survive the winter,
但这层蓬松的被子会保护宝宝们
but this fluffy blanket will protect them.
它已经给了它们最好的起跑点
She's given them the best possible start.
它的工作结束了
Her work is done.
在下面的蜂窝里
Down below in the nest,
蜂群数发展到了巅峰
the colony is bigger than ever.
但现在,年迈的女王蜂 正在生产它的最后一批宝宝
But now, the aging queen is producing her last babies.
它们被喂食了更大量的花粉
They're fed extra pollen portions
因此它们会长得比一般工蜂大
so they grow bigger than ordinary workers.
被选上的孩子们 注定要传承女王蜂的使命
The chosen few, destined to continue the queen's legacy,
前提是要能活下来
if they survive.
昆虫终结者找到了它们的窝
The tiny terminator has found their nest.
如果它成功闯入 那就再见了,宝宝们
If he breaks in, it's hasta la vista, babies.
不过当大黄蜂感测到掠食者气息里的
But when bumblebees sense carbon dioxide
二氧化碳时
from a predator's breath,
它们会聚集起来
they all rally together
然后把音量开到最大
and turn the volume up.
看来这次…
Looks like this time...
它回不来了
he won't be back.
最后的几个夏日
The last days of summer.
该来看看大家辛勤工作的成果了
Time to find out if everyone's hard work has paid off.
菜园这边超级大丰收
It's a mega harvest at the vegetable garden.
草莓
Mmm, strawberry.
草地上的草被割下来做干草
And now that the meadow is being cut for hay,
所以马儿整个冬天 都不用担心食物不够
there's plenty of food to last the horses all winter.
而多亏了所有的授粉者
And thanks to all the pollinators,
明年草地上也会继续百花齐放
the meadow will rise again next year.
这就是这个农庄的运作模式
That's how things work around here.
当我们张手欢迎小生物们
When little creatures are welcomed,
它们就能帮我们打造一个生机盎然
they help create a farm full of life,
而且自然平衡的农庄
that keeps its own balance.
大家做得好!
Great job, guys!
这是一个既天然
It's a natural approach
又更成功、永续的经营方式
that's more successful and more sustainable.
但并非所有事物都能恒久远
But not all things last forever.
王室使命已完成
The royal mission is complete.
它为这个顶天立地的成就付出了一切
The monumental effort has taken its toll.
它的女儿们轻轻将它抬出蜂窝
Her daughters gently carry her from the nest.
一场能够匹配女王身分的葬礼
A funeral fit for a queen.
但它的逝去并不是结束
But her death is not the end.
而是一个全新的开端
It's a new beginning.
年轻的女王蜂们破卵而出
Young queens are emerging
带着建立属于自己的蜂群的希望
with hopes of starting colonies of their own.
它们将传遍四方
They'll spread far and wide,
耐心等待下个春天的来临
and wait until next spring,
届时农庄里,又要再次忙碌起来了
when work on the farm starts all over again.
