Necessitate--Nordic A Nordic nightmare This nocturnal creature is originally from a Nordic country.
北欧恶梦 这种夜间活动的动物 最初生长在一个 北欧国家。
Argued the wildlife biologist to his peers. That's what makes it so unique and such a nightmare for people.
一位野生动物学家对 他的同仁们说道， 这就是它与众不同、 人们对它如此恐惧的原 因
No one ever thinks that there are dangerous night creatures up north. They're used to large nontoxic animals, like wolves and bears.
谁都不会想到在遥远的 北方还会有危险的 夜间活动的动物存在， 它们已习惯了大型无毒 动物，如狼和熊，
So they know how to navigate around niches where bears sight be, avoid bees' nests and not carry nectar on their person.
因此它们知道如何绕过 可能有熊出没的生态龛 避开蜂窝、不携带果汁
But they never think about creatures in the air. Not at least until now.
但它们从没想过 空中的动物， 至少到现在 还没有。
Now people are determined to meutralize this noble creature simply because they don't like its negative characteristics.
现在人们决定控制 这种高贵动物， 原因很简单，他们不喜 欢它那些不好的特点。
They have nominated it as the number one pest and even given a derogatory nickname!
他们已经把它指定 为头号有害生物， 甚至还给它起了 个带贬义的绰号!
They need to know, nevertheless, that its negative characteristics don't necessitate its destruction to nil.
不过，他们有必要知道 有许多不好的特点不见 得有必要对它赶尽杀绝
There are some advantages to the creature. It eats, for example, mosquitoes.
它也有它的长处， 比如说，它吃蚊子、
Rats and other bugs that sometimes make people sick. And it only bites humans out of necessity.
老鼠和其它一些有时使 人生病的虫子。 而且，它只在必要时 才会咬人。
If something bigger and larger were trying to kill you, wouldn't you fight back? If bitten, the venom only affects the nerves slowly anyhow.
如果一个比你高大的 东西要杀你，你难道 不反击吗？ 就算真被咬了，毒汁也 只会慢慢影响神经，
And is cured by a simple glass of lemonade. The risk to a human life is really quite negligible.
一杯柠檬汁就能治好。 它对人类生命的威胁 几乎可以忽略不计。
I think, therefore, that we should spend less time niggling about how to kill this creature.
因此我想我们应该 少花些时间瞎忙乎 怎么杀死这种动物
And negotiate with the public instead to try learning how to live with it. If we neglect this opportunity to educate people and let this species be destroyed.
而应该同公众协商， 学会如何与之相处。 如果我们忽略这次教 育大众的机会，让这个 物种被人类摧毁，
We will regret it forever!
我们会永远后悔的!
