What! Conseil exclaimed. They make counterfeit birds of paradise?
怎么!康塞尔喊，有人做假无双鸟吗？
Yes, Conseil.
是的，康塞尔。
And is master familiar with how the islanders go about it?
那么，先生知道土人的制造方法吗?
Perfectly familiar. During the easterly monsoon season, birds of paradise lose the magnificent feathers around their tails that naturalists call 'below-the-wing' feathers. These feathers are gathered by the fowl forgers and skillfully fitted onto some poor previously mutilated parakeet. Then they paint over the suture, varnish the bird, and ship the fruits of their unique labors to museums and collectors in Europe.
知道。当东方的季候凤起来的时候，无双鸟便脱掉了它尾巴周围的美丽羽一毛一，这些脱一下的羽一毛一，生物学家把它们叫做副翼羽一毛一。假造鸟类的人把这些羽一毛一收拾起来，很巧妙地把它们装在预先打死、拔了一毛一的可怜的鹦鹉身上。然后他们把皮一毛一接合的地方粘起来，粉饰好鸟身，他们就把这些新奇的制作品送到欧洲各地的博物馆和喜一爱一鸟类的人。
Good enough! Ned Land put in. If it isn't the right bird, it's still the right feathers, and so long as the merchandise isn't meant to be eaten, I see no great harm!
好的尼德·兰说，虽然这不是鸟的本体，但总是鸟的羽一毛一，如果鸟不是拿来食用，我想也没有什么坏处！
But if my desires were fulfilled by the capture of this bird of paradise, those of our Canadian huntsman remained unsatisfied. Luckily, near two o'clock Ned Land brought down a magnificent wild pig of the type the natives call bari-outang. This animal came in the nick of time for us to bag some real quadruped meat, and it was warmly welcomed. Ned Land proved himself quite gloriously with his gunshot. Hit by an electric bullet, the pig dropped dead on the spot.
我的欲一望虽然因为捕得这只无双鸟得到满足，但加拿：大猎人的欲一望还没有得到满足。很运气，在两点左右，尼德·兰打到一只肥一大的林中野猪，这是土人叫做巴利奥唐的一种猪。这猪正好在我们追求真正四足兽肉的时候到来了，所以它很受欢迎，被留下了。尼德·兰对自己打一槍一的准确，表示很得意。野猪中了电气弹，倒在地上死了。
The Canadian properly skinned and cleaned it, after removing half a dozen cutlets destined to serve as the grilled meat course of our evening meal. Then the hunt was on again, and once more would be marked by the exploits of Ned and Conseil.
加拿大人从猪身上割下六七块腰窝肉准备晚上烤着吃，他又把它的皮一毛一剥去，开膛，清出一内一脏。然后又来打猎，这次打猎又显出了尼德·兰和康塞尔的劳绩。
In essence, beating the bushes, the two friends flushed a herd of kangaroos that fled by bounding away on their elastic paws. But these animals didn't flee so swiftly that our electric capsules couldn't catch up with them.
果然，这一对朋友在搜索树丛的时候，赶出了一大一群一袋鼠，它们伸开有弹一性一的一腿一来，一蹦一跳地逃走。这些动物虽然跳、走得快，但还没有逃远，电气弹已经追上它们了。
