妈妈的爱和拥抱(Love and hugs from mom)
无论你称之为拥抱还是拥抱,触摸的力量是所有哺乳动物都能感受到的。以这只袋鼠妈妈和她的小袋鼠为例,不需要用语言来表达这张照片中发生的事情。与大多数其他哺乳动物的幼崽不同,新生的袋鼠在出生时高度发育不全,像胚胎一样。经过长达34天的妊娠期,这只软糖大小的袋鼠宝宝爬上妈妈的毛皮,从产道到育儿袋。一旦安全地放在袋子里,小袋鼠(小袋鼠被称为小袋鼠)就可以在两个多月内稳定地吃奶。
原文:
Whether you call it a hug or an embrace, there is something about the power of touch that all mammals can relate to. Take this mommy kangaroo and her joey for example—no words are needed to convey what is going on in this image. Unlike the young of most other mammals, a newborn kangaroo is highly underdeveloped and embryo-like at birth. After a gestation of up to 34 days, the jellybean-sized baby kangaroo makes the journey from the birth canal to the pouch by clambering up through its mother’s fur. Once safely in the pouch, joey (A baby kangaroo is called a joey.) suckles solidly for just over two months.
