当你装死时，野生动物真的会无视你吗？

Stefan Pociask
The most important thing to take away from this question is… whichever option you take, sometimes it will work… sometimes it won’t. It entirely depends on circumstances. It all comes back to the old adage: “The only thing predictable about wild animals is that they are unpredictable”. I, as well as everyone who has worked with wildlife, can vouch for that with personal experience, and I can confidently say that without knowing any of you. The specific animal’s frx of mind comes into play; as does its original intentions. The particular species, of course, comes into play. And also, dumb luck comes into play. The only thing you can do is to follow “best practices” for each individual animal species… the advice that has been documented as what “should work” for any particular species. But even then, its a crap shoot. And even then, you need to be able to adapt to the situation even if it goes against the best advice.
If I were you, I would research the available information for each of the various species you’re likely to encounter, and just go with that. No guarantees, though. The best advice is to try to avoid this situation in the first place, through various methods: making noise, properly securing food, not walking around blind corners, being aware of your surroundings, carrying bear spray, listening to locals and guides before venturing out, and not wearing a necklace of freshly butchered meat around your neck as you go traipsing through the wilderness. That last one is particularly important! : )
This question can’t be answered with a blanket statement that will cover all circumstances, with all animals, in all countries and terrains, during all times of the year.

这个问题最重要的一点是…无论你选择哪一个选项，都只是有时候会奏效…而有时候不会。这完全取决于你所在的环境。这一切都回到了一句古老的格言：“野生动物唯一可以预测的是它们是不可预测的”。我， 和所有与野生动物打过交道的人一样，我可以用个人经验来证明这一点，我可以自信地说出这一点而同时我完全不认识你们。特定动物的思维方式会让它发挥作用；它的初衷也是如此。当然，只对于特定的物种会起作用。此外，你的运气也在起作用。你唯一能做的就是为每一个物种遵循“实践出真知”的办法…这些建议被记录为对任何特定物种“应该起作用”的建议。但即使这样，这也是在瞎猫撞死耗子。与此同时，你也不能照本宣科，要结合当下环境找出最好的应对方法。
如果我是你，我会研究你可能遇到的每一种物种的可用信息，然后就这么做。但不能保证。最好的建议是首先通过各种方法避免这种情况：制造噪音、妥善保护食物、不要在死角走动、了解周围环境、携带防熊喷雾、外出前听取当地人和导游的意见，当你穿过荒野时，不要在脖子上戴上一条新鲜的动物骨头项链。最后一个建议特别重要！：）
这个问题不能用一个涵盖所有情况、所有动物、所有国家和地区、一年中所有时间的笼统回答来囊括。

I suspect the best advice is to always go with a partner and always make sure you can outrun that partner.

我想最好的建议是总是和一个搭档一起去，并且总是确保你能跑得比他快。

There was a Facebook group my sister was apart of recently and was given camping tips and one said for one of the do not do. It said don’t knock down the slowest person in your group! I asked her if I could join the group so I could comment. I did and said, who in there right mind would consciously decide to knock down the slowest member? I’m looking to take out the fastest or one faster than me. Everybody should know that. The slowest, sure give that wild animal an appetizer before getting to you

最近，我妹妹加入了一个脸书群组，得到了露营提示，其中一个提示写着“千万别做的事”。上面说不要撞倒你们小组中最慢的人！我问她我是否可以加入这个团体，这样我就可以发表评论了。我这么做了然后提问道，头脑正常的人谁会有意识地决定绊倒最慢的成员？我希望撞倒最快的或者比我快的那个。 每个人都应该知道这一点。跑得最慢的，一定是先给那只野生动物的一道开胃菜，然后接下来就轮到你

John Foster
On a serious note, NEVER carry candy or sweet anything into an area where there MAY be bears. Worse than a fresh meat necklace….

严肃地说，不要把糖果或甜食带到可能有熊的地方。比一条鲜肉项链更糟糕。。。

Dance. No, seriously, start breakdancing.
The Grizzly Man had no experience with bears, yet to the bafflement of experts was able to get up close and personal with bears and come out of it completely unscathed. His death at the hands of a grizzly bear was unrelated to his antics- he was mauled while sleeping in a tent.
One possibility that the experts raised was this- his behaviour towards bears was so confusing that the bears, unprepared by both their instincts and experiences, didn't know how to react, and just kinda froze.
From this, my conclusion is that I will learn breakdancing purely for the purpose of confusing polar and grizzly bears if I ever meet one, so it becomes too curious to want to eat me.

跳舞有用，说真的，开始跳霹雳舞吧。（你就是星爵？）
这名灰熊人没有任何与熊打交道的经验，但令专家们感到困惑的是，他能够与熊亲密接触，并安然无恙地走出困境。他死于灰熊之手与他的滑稽行为无关——他是在帐篷里睡觉时受伤的。
专家们提出的一种可能性是——他对熊做出的行为非常混乱，以至于熊对自己的本能和经验毫无头绪，不知道如何反应，只是僵在那里。
由此，我的结论是，如果我遇到北极熊和灰熊，我学习霹雳舞纯粹是为了弄晕它们，所以它就会变得非常好奇，而不是想吃掉我。

I have the Grizzly man DVD and they do say that the beats were just confused by his behaviour like you say. They also said that he stayed too late in the season at the Grizzly Maze and that most of the bears that were familiar to him had already moved out of the area for hibernation. The bears that came into the area were desperate for food. Which led to the killing of him and his girlfriend.

我有《灰熊人》的DVD，他们说他的行为就像你说的那样，把场面搞得乱七八糟。他们还说，这个季节他在熊巢那呆得太晚了，他所熟悉的大多数熊都已经离开这个地区冬眠了。进入该地区的熊急需食物。导致他和他的女朋友被杀。

Efsa Nur Aksan
yap it’s purely gambling, but the odd is much better than fighting or running which is almost impossible to win

是的，这纯粹是赌博，但在灰熊面前跳舞比打架或逃跑要好得多，因为打架或逃跑几乎不可能赢

Shelby Ellenberger
hahaha its funny plus u make a good point

哈哈哈，有意思，而且更有意思的是你说得有道理

David Bresson
The point of bear spray is that it isn't lethal so you can use it to deter a bear that isn't yet aggressive enough to justify shooting it.
You should carry both a suitable firearm and bear spray.
A pump shotgun is not a good choice for defensive use, though. Under stress people often short stroke them, causing a jam.

防熊喷雾的要点是它不是致命的，所以你可以用它来阻止一只攻击性还不足以证明射杀它是正当的熊。
你应该随身携带合适的枪支和防熊喷雾。
不过，对于自卫用途来说，泵式霰弹枪不是一个好的选择。在压力下，人们总是吓得没把栓塞拉到底，那就全完了。

Paul Johnson
I like what Bill Bryson said he would do in the event of coming across some bears:
“What on earth would I do if four bears came into my camp? Why, I would die, of course. Literally shit myself lifeless.”

我喜欢比尔·布赖森说的，如果遇到熊，他会这么做：
“如果四只熊来到我的营地，我到底会怎么办？还能怎么办，我死定了。我直接吓到拉在裤子里脱水而死。”

Geoffrey Brickley - Pepper Meister
well, shitting yourself lifeless would make yourself less appealing to most animals….

好吧，大便失禁会使你自己对大多数动物失去吸引力。。。

Bridget Collins
You forget scavengers would see shitting yourself as a dinner bell. Because the first things a lot of animals do when they die is release their bowels.

你忘了食腐动物会把大便当成晚餐铃。因为很多动物死后它们做的第一件事就是掏出它们的肠子。

Was going to make a comment about dying each time I go to the bathroom, but I just can’t do it….

我每次上厕所拉翔都想发表一个关于拉翔而死的评论，但我就是做不到。。。（因为便秘）

Bridget Collins
Eat more bran.

多吃粗粮。

Locksher Mohes
Yeah, but if you shit yourself while still being alive, it's pretty easy to defend yourself from scavengers, unlike a hungry bear.

是的，但是如果你在活着的时候拉屎，你很容易保护自己不受食腐动物的伤害，但对一只饥饿的熊来说，不是这么回事哦。

Bridget Collins
Locksher by scavengers, I was thinking more hyenas and coyotes.

说到食腐动物，我想到更多的是鬣狗和郊狼。

Locksher Mohes
You have a point. I thought you were talking about the birds. Fortunately, there are no hyenas and coyotes where I live. xD

你说得对。我还以为你在说鸟呢。幸运的是，我住的地方没有鬣狗和郊狼。xD

Bridget Collins
When I read your comment, I realized we were probably thinking of different scavengers.
I don't have hyenas but we do have coyotes.

当我读到你的评论时，我意识到我们可能想到了不同的食腐动物。
我这边没有鬣狗，但有郊狼。

Locksher Mohes
That reminds me of a joke:
-What do you do if a bear approaches you?
-You climb a tree and throw shit at it.
-Where will I get shit from?
-Oh, don't worry, there will be.

这让我想起一个笑话：
- 如果有一头熊靠近你，你会怎么做？
- 你爬上树，然后朝它扔屎。
- 哪来的屎？
- 哦，别担心，会有的。

Jane A. Manookin
The picture made me laugh because frogs do exactly that! I've had cats for years, and they've brought in a lot of playthings. Frogs are interesting because they will cover their heads and play dead. No matter how they get tossed, (or chewed on - ew) they will scramble to return to this position.

这张图片让我笑了，因为青蛙就是这么做的！我养猫好几年了，它们带来了很多玩具。青蛙很有趣，因为它们会遮住头装死。无论他们如何被扔（或被咀嚼 - 呕），他们都会前赴后继地做回这个姿势。

Zachary Smith
Not a bad answer, but you should add, it also depends on what the animal is after. If he is hungry, playing dead for any predator is a bad idea. If it a matter or territory then leaving slowly is probably the best option. And with some animals, actually looking and sounding as intimidating as possible is the best approach. Most bears get scared off by people yelling and shooting a gun, same with dogs. Only desensitized bears are the problem. And if you come up against an angry bear who doesnt fear humans at all, well…….better hope you have a large gun or your F-ed.

答案不错，但你应该补充一点，这也取决于动物追着你的前因后果。如果他饿了，对着捕食者装死是个坏主意。如果是因为你闯入了它的领地，那么慢慢离开可能是最好的选择。对于一些动物来说，看起来和听起来都尽可能的吓人是最好的方法。大多数熊被人叫喊和开枪吓跑了，狗也是如此。问题出在对这些不敏感的熊身上。如果你遇到一只不惧怕人类的愤怒的熊，那么……希望你手里有一把大枪，不然你人没了。

Oliver Starr
The problem with your suggestion is that it’s not always obvious what an animal is after. Even experts are often perplexed by non human behaviors. For the uninitiated, in a moment of surprise, a poor uation is pretty likely.
In the woods awareness is the first prerequisite, self education is the second. Minus both, if you get into trouble, luck is all you have left and she’s a fickle mistress.

你的建议的问题在于，动物追你的原因并不总是显而易见的。即使是专家也常常对非人类生物的行为感到困惑。对于外行来说，在一个遇到野生动物的高度紧张的时刻，一个对当下所处情形的错误评估是非常有可能的。
在森林里，灵敏的感知是第一前提，自我提醒是第二前提。除这两点之外，如果你遇到麻烦，你只剩下运气了，而她是个易变的情人。

David Bresson
And there's no guarantee their intentions won't change based on your behavior. A bear that was trying to scare you off might decide not to pass up an easy meal if you play dead.

也不能保证他们的意图不会因为你的行为而改变。如果你装死，一只本来只想吓跑你的熊可能不会放弃一顿送上门来的晚餐。

Oliver Starr
Yep. You can bet this has happened and will happen again.

是的。你可以打赌这已经发生了，而且还会再次发生。

Vidhan Matolia
But on the bright side, it’s a good practice for what you are actually going to be in a minute.

但从好的方面来说，这是一次很好的实践，你会在一分钟内发现真实的自我是什么样的（勇者还是菜鸡）。

Adam Roberts
Yes. You are far less likely to hurt the animal if you fake being dead; humans don't have the type of bone that choke animals. Try not to make any noise when they begin to chew on you and let them get a really good grip to prevent you from changing your mind.
It is your goal to make the best decision for the animals right?

对如果你装死，你伤害动物的可能性要小得多；人类没有那种会让动物窒息的骨头。当他们开始咬你的时候，尽量不要发出任何噪音，让他们紧紧抓住你，防止你改变主意。
你的目标是为动物做出最好的决定，对吗？

Ravikiran Patil
You wouldn't want to do that in Hyena country. ;)

你不会想在有鬣狗的国家这样做的。

Teddy Poster
I’m no expert, but I don’t think anything would work in Hyena country, cept maybe a well made suit of armor.

我不是专家，但我认为在鬣狗之乡，除了一套制作精良的盔甲之外，什么都不管用。

Every situation is different.

每种情况都是不一样的。

Randy Paddock
Here in Alaska its accepted practice for Brown bears only, ( near sighted once get sent or aren't threatened will leave)black bears have been know to track & kill people Fish& Game biologists say stand your ground fight them off ( why carry a weapon) won't comment on polar bears , likely work a lot of northern villages put up with them in the winter months ..In bear country be noisy, smoke cigars , really don't like the smell it does work , know from experience.

在阿拉斯加州，这套办法只对棕熊管用（近视的熊一旦被赶走或没有受到威胁就会跑远）人们知道黑熊会跟踪还会杀人，七擒七纵人类。生物学家说站在原地赤手空拳就能击退它们（为什么要携带武器）我不会去谈北极熊，可能很多在北方冬天工作的村里人忍受了他们…在有熊的国度很烦人，抽香烟有用，熊真的不喜欢它的气味，我从经验中知道这些。（这人语法我真的服了，不知道在说些什么）

Eivind
In polar-bear country, such as Svalbard, it's actually recquired to carry gun(s) when leaving the city; you're flat out not allowed to go wandering without.
They won't generally speaking always see human beings as prey, but they're curious, and they don't have enough experience with human beings to have learnt to fear us; besides "fear" of other living things isn't really in the vocabulary of an adult polarbear anyway.
Sometimes they can be scared off by loud noises, or things like flare-guns; but you still need the option to send fast lead their way in order to be reasonably safe.

在有北极熊的国度，如斯瓦尔巴群岛，当你离开城市时，实际上需要携带枪支；你是绝对不允许不经许可就到处游荡的。
一般来说，他们不会总是把人类看作猎物，但他们很好奇，而且他们没怎么见过人，也不会害怕我们；除此之外，对其他生物的“恐惧”在成年北极熊的词汇表中并不存在。
有时，他们会被巨大的噪音或类似信号枪的东西吓跑；但你仍然需要能够快速把他们赶走的方式，以便足够安全。

David Bresson
Any North American bear will eat you if it's hungry. It's just that black bears are less aggressive, so in the rare case they attack it's often predation, and you won't deter it with anything except a show of force. More of brown bear attacks are for other reasons, where other options might work.

任何北美的熊如果饿了都会吃掉你。只是黑熊的攻击性较低，所以在极少数情况下，它们攻击你通常是为了捕食，除了展现武力之外，你没有任何手段阻止它。更多的棕熊攻击是出于其他原因，而其他选项可能会起作用。

Marc Hoffman
I would rather be eaten by a bear than smoke a cigar ;)

我宁愿被熊吃掉也不愿抽雪茄；）

Bennie Chiedu
Be careful what you wish yourself. Cheers.

坚守你的理念兄弟。干杯。
