1,500 Risso的海豚的超級豆莢在蒙特利灣發現

她說，成人和少年海豚的大型混合可能是幾個豆莢聚集在一起並向南游泳的結果。

A huge gathering of Risso's dolphins was spotted off the coast of California on Friday, with a drone capturing the incredible sight of the dolphins cavorting around a boat.

週五，在加利福尼亞海岸發現了一場大量瑞索的海豚聚會，一架無人駕駛飛機捕捉了一隻海豚在船上徘徊的令人難以置信的景象。

Captain Evan Brodsky, with the Monterey Bay Whale Watch, said they were on the horizon as far as he could see.

埃文·布羅德斯基（Evan Brodsky）上尉帶著蒙特利灣鯨魚手錶，說他們在他所能看到的地平線上。

"They were just having a great time. So they were breaching everywhere ... tail slapping, coming right over to the boat. They looked like they were having a big party," said Colleen Talty, a marine biologist on the trip to track the annual migration of gray whales heading to breeding lagoons off Mexico's Baja California coast.

“他們只是度過了愉快的時光。所以他們到處都在違反……尾巴拍打，直接上船。他們看起來好像在舉行大型聚會，”海上生物學家Colleen Talty旅行追踪灰鯨的年度遷移，前往墨西哥巴哈加州海岸繁殖潟湖。

Risso's dolphins typically travel in groups of only 10 to 30 animals, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, making this sighting particularly rare.

根據國家海洋和大氣管理局的說法，瑞索的海豚通常只有10至30只動物的群體旅行，這使這種目擊者特別罕見。

The large mix of adult and juvenile dolphins was probably the result of several pods coming together and swimming south, Talty said.

塔爾蒂說，成年和少年海豚的大型混合可能是幾個豆莢聚集在一起並向南游泳的結果。

The Monterey coastline is a particularly ideal location to spot the dolphins because they prefer extremely deep water.

蒙特雷海岸線是一個特別理想的地方，可以發現海豚，因為它們更喜歡非常深水。

The area's underwater submarine canyon means they may swim much closer to shore than elsewhere along the California coast, Talty said.

塔爾蒂說，該地區的水下潛艇峽谷意味著它們可能比加利福尼亞海岸其他地方的岸邊游泳得多。

The team did not initially grasp the sheer size of the super pod that appeared on Friday morning, thinking there were only several hundred dolphins.

該團隊最初沒有掌握週五早上出現的超級豆莢的巨大尺寸，認為只有數百隻海豚。

"Once we put the drone up, I was just blown away ... I kept saying, 'Look at my screen. Look at my screen. Look how many there are'," said Capt Brodsky.

布羅德斯基上尉說：“一旦我們把無人機抬起來，我就被吹走了……我一直在說，'看屏幕。看我的屏幕。看屏幕有多少。”

"It just blows my mind every time. It never gets old."

“它每次都會讓我震驚。它永遠不會變老。”

Ms Talty described one particularly memorable moment on Friday in which she stood at the front of the boat and looked down to see several dolphins turning on their sides and staring straight back at her.

塔爾蒂女士描述了一個週五特別令人難忘的時刻，她站在船的前面，低頭看著幾隻海豚在他們的側面轉身，直接凝視著她。

As the dolphins continued to interact with the boat, the team drove straight ahead, making sure to stay out of their way.

當海豚繼續與船互動時，團隊直接向前行駛，確保遠離他們的路。

"You don't want to make any abrasive manoeuvres and potentially injure an animal. That's of course the last thing you ever want to do," Capt Brodsky said.

布羅德斯基上尉說：“您不想進行任何磨碎的動作並可能傷害動物。這當然是您想做的最後一件事。”

"So we just cruise along with them. It was an incredible experience."

“所以我們和他們一起巡遊。這是一次令人難以置信的經歷。”
