As we know from the movie, the Hulk is a guy who, when hegets angry, turns into the strongest, meanest creature onearth.

看过电影《绿巨人》的都知道,每当班纳尔生气时,就会失去自我意识,变身成为地球上最强壮最具破坏力的生物-绿色巨人。

The natural world features a few amazingly strongcreatures of its own.

其实,在自然界中,也有一些这样具有超凡力量的生物。

In fact, the pound-for-pound strongestcreature on earth is…drum roll please…

这种实打实的地球最强生物就是…

The rhinoceros2 beetle3?

犀牛甲虫?

Is it possible that a little old beetle, an insect, can bear more weight than, say, an elephant?

这么丁点大的小甲虫可以负重超过大象吗?

Of course not, but when it comes to proportional strength, the rhinoceros beetle is second to none.

当然不能,但是,如果是按体重和负重量的比例来算,犀牛甲虫可是当之无愧的冠军呢!

Elephants, after all, can only carry around 25% of their own weight.

毕竟,就算是大象也只能载动自身体重的四分之一左右,

The rhino1 beetle can carry a whopping 850 times its own weight on its back.

而我们小小的犀牛甲虫却能载动超过体重八百五十倍的东西呢!

Why are rhino beetles4 so strong?

那么犀牛甲虫为什么如此强大呢?

First, these beetles are nearly an inch long and packed withpowerful muscles.

首先,这种甲虫体短,只有一英寸长,但却浑身是强健的肌肉。

Second, they generally have at least three legs touching5 the ground at all times.

其次,通常它能够做到至少三只脚同时着地,

This gives these beetles the extraordinary balance and leverage6 that enable them to lift heavyobjects.

这就使得它具有超凡的平衡力和支撑点来抬起重物。

Since they live in tropical jungles along the equator, rhino beetles have to be strong to foragethrough the jungle floor.

因为犀牛甲虫生活在赤道附近的热带丛林,因此,它不得不足够强壮才能在炽热的地表搜寻到食物。

Named for the rhinoceros-like horn on its head, the rhino beetle uses itshorn and proportional strength to move aside branches and other debris7 in search of food.

正因为犀牛甲虫的角酷似犀牛角,所以它才叫做犀牛甲虫。犀牛甲虫利用自己的角和力量来移开树枝和其它障碍物来搜寻食物。

Rhino beetles are neither ferocious8 nor particularly dangerous.

犀牛甲虫既不残忍也不危险。

They eat rotting fruit and sap, anddespite their fierce horned appearance do not bite or sting when handled.

它们食用的是腐烂的水果和树的汁液,即便它们的角及其锋利,但当你抓住它时它也不会叮咬你。

These gentle insectsmay not be hulk-like in demeanor9, but their strength might turn other creatures green with envy.

因此,这些温柔的昆虫行为举止绝对不会像恐怖的绿色巨人,但是,恐怕它们强大的力量会轻而易举地让其它生物妒忌的两眼发红吧!
