On the night of the full moon,
在月圆之夜，
hundreds of tiny hawksbill turtle hatchlings emerge from the safety of their nest deep in the sand.
数百只刚孵化的小玳瑁从安全的沙底洞穴中钻出。
Their instinct is to reach the sea as quickly as possible.

And their guide is the light of the full moon reflected on the water.
指引它们方向的是海水倒映的月光。
But this young hatchling is confused. It's going in the wrong direction.

Bright light is coming from the land.
明亮的灯光从陆地照来。
And all these hatchlings are travelling up the beach towards it.
让这些小玳瑁都从沙滩爬向内陆。
Predators are ready to take advantage.
捕食者伺机而动。
Crabs now make their burrows directly beneath the beach lights and wait for their prey to come to them.
螃蟹将巢穴直接建在沙滩灯光下，等猎物自己送上门。
Even if a hatchling escapes, they're still in peril.
即使能成功逃脱，它们仍身处险境。
