点评:Do this trip with the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation and see how native plants and animals are being reintroduced to the island. It's a quick speedboat ride to the ile aux aigrettes with a knowledgeable guide taking you on a tour. Marjorie was wonderful, telling us about the animals, plants and history of Mauritius. It is very hot and humid in summer beneath the forest canopy so take plenty of water. We saw tortoises, fruit bats, small skinks, pink pigeons and Mauritian fodies. Of course being in the wild it's luck of the draw what you see. The botanicals are also interesting, though. We learnt about slow-growing ebony, nailwood, bottle trees and many more. The plant nursery shows how ongoing work continues to reintroduce lost species. All in all a great couple of hours and all entrance fees go into conservation work. Much better to support this vital work as tourists than to chase dolphins and turtles. Please.
翻译:参加毛里求斯野生动物基金会组织的这次旅行,看看当地是如何重新引入本土动植物的。乘坐快艇很快就能到达白鹭岛(ile aux aigrettes),一位知识渊博的导游会带您游览。玛乔丽非常棒,她向我们讲解了毛里求斯的动植物和历史。夏季森林树冠下非常炎热潮湿,所以一定要带足水。我们看到了陆龟、果蝠、小石龙子、粉红鸽和毛里求斯鹬。当然,在野外看到什么动物完全取决于运气。不过,植物也很有趣。我们了解了生长缓慢的乌木、钉木、瓶子树等等。植物苗圃展示了正在进行的物种重引入工作。总而言之,这是一次非常棒的几个小时的旅行,所有门票收入都将用于保护工作。作为游客,支持这项至关重要的工作远比追逐海豚和海龟更有意义。拜托了!
