どういう意味ですか?和訳お願いします。

Predatory frog-eating bats discriminate among potential prey on the basis of their calls. Bats familiar with Bufo typhonius almost never approach a loud-speaker broadcasting the calls of a novel species from a different region, a species with a call whose energy is largely in the 2-kilohertz range, just like that of B.typhonius. The bats were more likely to approach a speaker playing the calls of two other novel species that have signals unlike that of B.typhonius.

SPS700さんがチャンスをくれましたので翻訳します。 カエルを餌食とする、捕食動物であるコウモリは、餌食の対象となるカエルをその鳴き声により識別する。コノハヒキガエルをよく知っているコウモリは、他の異なった地域からの、新しい変り種のカエルの鳴き声を発しているスピーカーには殆ど近づくことがない。その種のカエルの鳴き声は、まったくコノハヒキガエルの鳴き声のように、主として2-キロハーツの幅の電力で放送されているからである。 コウモリ達はコノハヒキガエルと異なる鳴き声を発している、すなわち他の二つの新種のカエルの鳴き声を発しているスピーカにはより好んで近づくようである。 Bufo typhonius コノハヒキガエル(多分有毒性) 下記サイトを参照ください。 http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%92%E3%82%AD%E3%82%AC%E3%82%A8%E3%83%AB%E5%B1%9E

    Caged, hungry bats, given a choice between flying to a speaker playing a novel call that had a certain resemblance to a poisonous toad's call and flying to one that played a call similar to an edible frog species, nearly always avoided the speaker playing the toadlike signal but visited the other.

    Any number of attributes of predators have been shown to(1)increase the probability that a foraging animal will detect something edible or(2)increase the probability that a detected food item will be converted into a consumed food item. Here shall present some examples of characteristics that fall into each category, beginning with probable adaptations for prey detection.

    For predators faced with less noisy prey,there are still some things that can be done to help the hunter encounter a meal. Some oceanic "flashlight" fish posses a bio-luminescent light organ just under each eye, which they can "switch" on and off voluntarily. These animals hunt in darkness at night or at great depths;they activate their light organ to produce enough illumination to spot their prey, which would otherwise be invisible. これは鮟鱇などの深海底生物のことについていっているのですか?

    Eyes in the Dark Temnodontosaurus was certainly an unusual animal. It had some of the largest eyes in nature―more than 25 cm (10 inches) across! With a name that means "cutting tooth lizard," Temnodontosaurus could easily pick out its prey in the dark water.

But how they managed to do this he could not guess.  It was not until fairly recently that this problem was solved, at least partially. The discovery of radar, the sending out of sound-waves and judging the obstacle ahead by the returning echo, made some investigators wonder if this was not the system employed by bats. A series of experiments was conducted, and some fascinating things were discovered. First of all, some bats were blindfolded with tiny pieces of wax over their eyes, and as usual they had no difficulty in flying to and fro without hitting anything. Then it was found that if they were blindfolded and their ears were covered they were no longer able to avoid collisions and, in fact, did not seem at all keen on flying in the first place. If only once ear was covered they could fly with only moderate success and would frequently hit objects. This showed that bats could get information about the obstacles ahead by means of sound-waves reflected from them. Then the investigators covered the noses and mouths of their bats, but left the ears uncovered, and again the bats were unable to fly without collision. This proved that the nose, ears and mouth all played some part in the bat´s radar system. Eventually, by the use of extremely delicate instruments, the facts were discovered. As the bat flies along, it emits a continuous succession of supersonic squeaks, far too high for the human ear to pick up. They give out, in fact, about thirty squeaks a second. The echoes from these squeaks, bouncing off the obstacles ahead, return to the bat´s ears and, in some species, to the curious fleshy ridges round the creature´s nose, and the bat can thus tell what lies ahead and how far away it is. It is, in fact, in every detail the principle of radar. 以上です。

    By 2080, global warming could result in one-fifth of the world’s lizard species becoming extinct, a global study has found. Even under the most optimistic scenarios for curbing carbon dioxide emissions, the analysis by an international team shows that one-fifth of the globe’s lizard populations, corresponding to 6% of all lizard species, may go extinct by 2050. “We’ve committed ourselves to that,” says Barry Sinervo, an evolutionary biologist at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who led the study. He and his colleagues found that climate change has already driven 12% of the populations of Mexico’s colourful Sceloporus lizards extinct since 1975. If emissions continue at current levels, he predicts that by 2080, 39% of the world’s lizard populations will have vanished, corresponding to a 20% loss in species. The study is published in Science this week. It’s a stunning finding, says Raymond Huey, an evolutionary physiologist at the University of Washington, Seattle, who wasn’t part of the study team. “Lizards are animals that should be very tolerant of climate warming,” he says. よろしくお願いします^^;
