This reliance on infrasound may actually extend to other species, too.
对次声波的依赖可能也延伸到了其他物种。
Most seabirds are highly dependent on wind for movement.
大多数海鸟高度依赖风来飞行移动。
It seems to be involved in animal behavior in a lot of contexts, in a lot of different species.
这似乎涉及到很多不同物种在不同情境下的动物行为。
They include whales, elephants, pigeons and peacocks.
这些物种包括鲸鱼、大象、鸽子和孔雀。
So I would be very surprised if this was in any way unique to wandering albatrosses.
如果这个飞行模式是漂泊信天翁独有的，我会非常惊讶。
So albatrosses have had a very long time to evolve ways of feeling the environment—lots of ways they can perceive what’s around them.
信天翁经历很长时间进化出了感知环境的方式，它们可以通过很多方式感知周围的事物。
And I think because they really need this condition, this stormy conditions, these winds, it makes perfect sense that it would have evolved more than one way of finding them.
因为信天翁的确需要这种环境，这些大风、暴风雨环境，因此，它才能进化出不止一种觅食方式，这是完全讲得通的。
I think it’s a really nice reminder of the different sources of information animals might be using—especially in this sort of environment that is so featureless—and how animals can still extract so much information and context out of that despite there seemingly not being much there.
我认为这很好地提醒了我们，动物可能使用了各种各样不同的信息源，尤其是在这种没有什么特征的环境中。动物是如何在看似没有多少信息的环境下从中提取出如此多的信息和背景的。
Evolution in animals is almost always very surprising.
动物的进化几乎总是令人无比震撼。
When you study the evolution of the animal closely, you find remarkable things, remarkable inventions.
当仔细研究动物的进化时，就会发现非凡的事情，非凡的发现。
