很少能见到上百条的旗鱼在同一个地方出现。
To herd their prey, the predators raise their huge dorsal fins.
旗鱼张开大大的背鳍来把猎物赶到一起。
A mistimed strike by one sailfish, could fatally damage another,
旗鱼不恰当的攻击会严重伤害到同伴,
but each continually changes it's color, from blue, to striped, to black,
所以每条旗鱼不断变换颜色 从蓝色到有斑纹到黑色,
that warns it's companions of it's intentions and also confuses the prey.
这可以警告同伴注意,同时也可以迷惑饵鱼。
As the shoal is driven nearer the surface, it comes within the range of the seabirds.
当饵鱼被赶上海面的时候,又进入了海鸟的攻击范围。
Out here, in the open ocean, there is nowhere for the baitfish to hide.
在这片空旷的海域中,这些小鱼无处可藏。
