黑熊貝兒與紅耳龜過招

A "Beary" Big Problem for Taipei Zoo Turtles

Some turtles at the Taipei Zoo have a problem.

It's a "Beary" big problem.

Beary is a Formosan black bear (台灣黑熊).

She is 14 years old.

Beary lives at the zoo with another Formosan black bear named Brown Sugar.

Beary and Brown Sugar sometimes stay in an outdoor enclosure (戶外活動場地).

They can enjoy the sun, get some exercise, and swim in the pond.

Some red-eared sliders (紅耳龜) live in the pond.

And the problem is…

Beary likes to play with them a bit too much!

Zookeepers say Beary is very energetic (精力充沛).

She is always looking for something to do.

The first time Beary saw a red-eared slider, she was a bit surprised.

Keepers say she backed away (後退) from the turtle.

But Beary soon became very interested in the turtles.

The keepers say this shows Beary has a very good memory (記憶力好).

Now they say Beary always looks for the turtles when she gets outside.

She likes to use her paws to hit the turtles' shells.

貝兒看到池邊的紅耳龜會揮動熊掌拍打龜殼。

Turtle shells are strong.

But Beary is 160 centimeters tall when she stands.

And she weighs 100 kilograms!

So getting hit by her paw is probably a little scary for the turtles.

Keepers say when the turtles see Beary come out, they will flee (逃跑) into the water.

But Beary is also smart.

When the turtles flee, Beary will follow them into the water.

And she uses her paws to search for (尋找) the turtles in the water.

Zookeepers are trying to find other fun things for Beary to do, so she will stop bothering the turtles.

地球上到底有多少隻螞蟻？

How Many Ants Are There on Earth?

What's the smallest animal you can think of?

Many of you might be thinking of ants.

In fact, ants are so small, that there might be hundreds in the ground under you right now.

But have you ever wondered…

How many ants are there on Earth?

Scientists think they have the answer.

Here's a hint…

It's a lot.

Scientists think there are about 20 quadrillion (20,000,000,000,000,000) ants on Earth.

That's a "2" and sixteen "0"s.

科學家最新研究指出，地球上至少有2萬兆隻螞蟻。

How did they get this number?

The scientists had to collect (收集) a lot of information.

They looked at hundreds of studies of ants from all around the world.

The studies cover the past 80 years.

20 quadrillion is a number that is so big, it's almost too hard to imagine.

And the scientists say this is a "conservative" number (保守的數字).

2萬兆根本就是天文數字，很難想像，不過科學家說這可能還是低估了螞蟻的總數量。

【美國隊長】談愛犬 Dodger

Chris Evans Talks About Being a Dog Dad

We would say being Captain America is a pretty important job.

But it seems like Chris Evans has another job that's even more important.

It's so important, that Chris says he is building his life around it.

That job, is taking good care of his dog!

Chris recently talked about his dog, named "Dodger", in an interview.

Dodger is a big brown and white dog.

In 2015, Chris was filming a movie in a dog shelter (動物收容所).

He said he saw Dodger, and knew right away that he was taking Dodger home.

克里斯當時在動物收容所拍戲，在無意間看到Dodger，便收養了牠。

Chris says he loves how Dodger is so joyful (高高興興的).

He says Dodger's heart is wide open.

But the actor says taking care of Dodger does come with a lot of responsibilities (責任).

He says no matter how busy he gets, he still has to make time to take Dodger on walks.

In the end, Chris says he enjoys that too.

He says taking care of Dodger helps him relax and have fun.
