“The nine incredible galleries will feature 115 species of marine life held in 800,000 gallons of water. And this includes 18 species of sharks and rays.”

这9个令人难以置信的展厅将展出115种海洋生物，它们被饲养在80万加仑的水中。其中包括18种鲨鱼和鳐鱼。

Cristián Samper, president and CEO of the Wildlife Conservation Society. He spoke June 28th at the opening of the Ocean Wonders: Sharks! building and exhibit at the society’s New York Aquarium. Because we’re at the Aquarium, you may notice the sounds of sea lions in the background. And because the facility is at Coney Island in Brooklyn, you’ll also hear sirens—police or ambulance sirens, not the mythological sea temptresses or the real-life amphibians. Samper talked about what visitors might take away from their experience.

克里斯蒂安·桑珀，野生动物保护协会主席兼首席执行官说。6月28日，他在纽约水族馆的展览“海洋奇观：鲨鱼!馆”开幕式上发表了讲话。在水族馆里，你可能会听到背景中海狮的声音。并且由于该设施位于布鲁克林的科尼岛，你还会听到警报声——警察或救护车的警笛声，而不是神话中的海上女妖或现实生活中的两栖动物。Samper谈到了游客可以从他们的体验中得到什么。

“Sharks are keystone species in the world’s oceans. And as top predators they help regulate the populations of other species and bring balance to the ocean. We also know that sharks are in trouble and need our help. Second, this exhibit features the waters right here in New York, what we call the New York seascape…this area is the home to hundreds of marine species, including 25 species of sharks, eight species of whales, six species of sea turtles, and thousands of fish, bird, and invertebrate species. And the third message is that the future of the ocean is in our hands. The choices that each of us will make, today, this week and next year—whether it’s the sustainable seafood that we do, whether we use plastic straws—every choice we make will impact the future of the oceans.”

“鲨鱼是世界海洋中的重要物种。作为顶级掠食者，他们能帮助调节其他物种的种群数量，给海洋带来平衡。我们也知道鲨鱼的现状不容乐观，需要我们的帮助。第二，展品代表了纽约地区的水域，也就是我们所说的纽约海洋地形…这一地区是无数海洋物种的家园，包括25种鲨鱼，8种鲸，6种海龟，和数千种鱼类、鸟类以及无脊椎动物。第三个要传达的信息是，海洋的未来在我们的手中。我们每个人今天、这周，下一年做的选择——我们是否用可持续的方法捕捞海鲜，或是是否使用塑料吸管——我们做的每一个选择都会影响未来的海洋。”
