sometimes other wolves will start

There's a bunch of mama wolves going around being,

like, you stop that.

together to take down large prey.

如果他們成功捕捉到大獵物

watching their girlish figure at all.

They can eat up to 20 pounds in a day.

他們一天可以吃20磅的食物

So 20 pounds of meat is kind of a lot,

considering that the average wolf weighs anywhere

That's a lot of meat.

from should they be successful in taking down their prey?

Like, that's what they want to eat.

They can eat birds and lizards and a whole bunch of smaller

Contrary to what Liam Neeson would have you believe,

Liam Neeson告訴你們，相反的

wolves very rarely attack humans.

狼幾乎不會攻擊人類

They are considered one of the most aggressive and fearsome villains of the animal kingdom.

狼被認為是動物王國中最凶猛、可怕的壞人

Like most animals, they'll leave you alone

但和其他動物一樣，他們不會傷害你

if you leave them alone.

如果你不傷害他的話

So don't bother them.

所以別去打擾他們

Don't go getting all up in their grille,

別踩到他們的界線

and maybe they won't attack you-- Neeson.

他們就不會攻擊你

But still, don't go try to pet them or nothing.
