生日快乐,萨瓜罗国家公园(Happy birthday, Saguaro National Park)

如果你知道这些形状独特的仙人掌叫什么,你可以把这片公共土地命名为索诺兰沙漠。萨瓜罗国家公园是在1994年的这一天建立的,旨在保护像这样的巨型萨瓜罗。这只生长缓慢、多刺的庞然大物已被发现能伸入亚利桑那州的天空近80英尺。只是不要被诱惑去爬一个——从我们这里开始吧,仔细看看那个天体显示是不值得被3英寸的saguaro刺戳的。
原文:
If you know what these distinctively shaped cactuses are called, you can name this patch of public land in the Sonoran Desert. Saguaro National Park was established on this day in 1994 to protect giant saguaros like these. The slow-growing, prickly behemoths have been known to reach almost 80 feet into the Arizona sky. Just don't be tempted to climb one – take it from us, a closer look at that celestial display isn't worth getting jabbed by 3-inch saguaro spines.
