they find my video lights worthy of inspection
这些鲨鱼觉得我的摄影灯值得探察一番
after an hour underwater in the dark
在黑暗的水下待了一个小时之后
I surfaced without finding a tiger shark
没有发现虎鲨的踪迹，于是我来到水面
I guess we just need to jump and wait tiger sharks can be elusive
我想我们只需要等待，可能虎鲨神出鬼没
Wow, that was amazing
哇，太奇妙了
I have to tell you no tiger sharks but the lemons are pretty spooky at night
我不得不告诉你，不是虎鲨，但是在晚上，柠檬鲨像幽灵一样，恐怖极了
the next day I head back to the bottom once again
第二天，我又回到海底
there are still plenty of lemon sharks around
周围还是有很多柠檬鲨
but then a shape in the distance catches my eye
但这时远处的一个身影映入我的眼帘
it's a tiger shark
是虎鲨
at last a tiger shark has appeared
虎鲨在最后出现了
it takes her a while to get comfortable with divers in the water
虎鲨花了一段时间才和水中的潜水员熟悉起来
but eventually she approaches closer to investigate me
最终虎鲨向我靠近，想探察我
she comes up and makes a few passes by the bait cautiously keeping an eye on me
虎鲨过来了，在鱼饵旁游过几次，小心翼翼地盯着我
for such large animals tiger sharks seem a lot less aggressive than you might expect
对于这种大型动物来说，虎鲨的攻击性似乎比你想象的要小得多
it's as if they carefully consider each step trying to decide if it's safe
好像这些鲨鱼会仔细观察你的每一步动作，试着确定是否安全
finally she comes right up to a huge piece of bait and takes it away in one bite
最后，虎鲨径直来到一块巨大的鱼饵前，一口就把它吃掉了

the shark is also interested in the chunks of fish that have fallen to the sand
鲨鱼还对掉到沙滩上的大块鱼颇感兴趣
as the Sharks go by, I take the opportunity to compare the two species
鲨鱼来了，我抓住机会比较这虎鲨和柠檬鲨
there are several differences between the tiger shark and the lemon sharks
虎鲨和柠檬鲨有几个不同之处
besides the different type of dorsal fins
除了背鳍不同
the tiger shark also has a broader flatter head and the distinctive tiger stripes for which they're named
虎鲨头部更宽更平，以独特的虎纹而得名
the Sharks seem interested in my video lights
鲨鱼似乎对我的摄影灯很感兴趣
even though they're not being used during the day
即使白天不使用摄影灯
the white housing of the lights probably looks like a piece of fish to the Sharks
白色的灯壳在鲨鱼看来很像一条鱼
and they often come up too closely investigate them
鲨鱼经常会靠近仔细地研究这些灯
occasionally a shark takes a test bite out of the light and if I don't see it coming
偶尔会试咬一口，如果我看见鲨鱼没有过来
it takes me by surprise
我会很惊讶
I'm not prepared for a large tiger shark to come in after my video light though
不过，开了摄影灯之后，我还没准备好迎接大虎鲨的到来
she keeps coming closer and closer
越来越近了
then as she tries to bite it and I try to keep it away from her we spin around on the sandy bottom like two dancers
当虎鲨试着咬灯壳的时候，我试着将它们分离，我们像舞者一样在沙底旋转
she eventually pushes me into the bottom and gets ahold of my life
最终虎鲨将我推入海底，对我予取予求
there's nothing I can do about it except use my camera as a shield and hope she doesn't eat the whole thing
除了拿相机当挡箭牌，我别无他法，希望虎鲨不要把相机整个都吃了
when she's satisfied the light isn't food she turns and swims off
当虎鲨感到灯不是食物，就会转身离开
and I'm glad she does
我很高兴鲨鱼走了
that was a little bit too close for comfort and that's the reason we wear dark clothing and gloves when we dive with sharks
太近了，有些不舒服，这就是为什么我们和鲨鱼一起潜水时要穿深色衣服，戴着深色手套的原因
if that had been my hand I would be in serious trouble right now
如果鲨鱼咬了我的手，我现在就有大麻烦了
I head to the surface impressed by the strength of the large tiger shark
我回到水面，大虎鲨的力量给我留下了深刻的印象
and ready to escape the sea for a while
我准备暂时待在岸上
I've enjoyed many adventures in the ocean and many exciting encounters with sharks
我在海洋里冒险了很多次，也与鲨鱼有过激动人心的邂逅
but this one will stick with me for a long time
但是这次经历会伴随我很长时间
