Before we go, a fish called Greedo. "Star Wars" might get the name. For the rest of us, it`s one crude catfish 1. It was discovered in 1998 but it wasn`t until this year that it was designated a new species.


在节目结束之前,有一条名叫Greedo的鱼,可是它的名字来源于《星球大战》。但是对于我们来说,它只是一条粗鲁的鲶鱼。人们一直以为它就是一条普通的鲶鱼,但是直到1998年,人们才发现,它是一个新的品种。


Because of its large eyes and bristling 2 bristles 3, a researcher thought it looked like a short-lived "Star Wars" character.


因为这条鱼拥有大大的眼睛和竖立的短毛,研究人员认为它看起来像《星球大战》中的一个角色。


If you were looking for the off screen version of Greedo, you can find it in the waters of Northern Brazil. It might lack the aura of an angelfish, the colors of a clown fish or the regality of the regal tang, but it`s not Greedo for attention. There are many fish in the sea and this cat is catching 4 coverage 5 swimmingly from fins 6 around the galaxy 7.


如果你们想在实际生活中看看Greedo的真面目,Greedo生活在巴西北部海域。它可能缺少神仙鱼的光环——平淡的颜色但具有权利——可这些并不是Greedo值得关注的地方。海洋中很多的鱼,但是这只鱼却得到了全世界的关注。
