Dale? Dale? I think you should see this. There's something in the water.

デイル？デイル？これを見てくれ水の中に何かいる

No, it's not the dog. Well, I don't know what it is, Dale. Describe it? All right, it looks like Snuffleupagus but reimagined as a dildo, wearing glasses. Does that help, Dale?

いや、犬じゃないよ。何だかわからないよ、デール。どんな犬？スナッフル・パグスのような...ディルドのような...メガネをかけた...どうだ、デール？

No, I'm not drunk. Dale, I really think you should- What the fu-

いや、酔ってないよ。デール、君は...

Let's back up a bit. This is a raft of Culex eggs, seen from below, and they are just about to hatch. Now, if you have that thing where lots of little holes freak you out, this might be a good time to go to the kitchen and get something to eat. Not a bagel, that has a hole. And not pimento olives either. You might as well just stay and watch this. Well, you've been warned.

少し話を戻そう。これはクレックスの卵の筏で、下から見ると孵化寸前である。さて、小さな穴がたくさん開いていることに恐怖を感じる人は、台所に行って何か食べるいい機会かもしれない。穴の開いたベーグルはダメだ。ピメントオリーブもダメだ。ここで見ていた方がいい。さて、警告はした。

And here come the bibbies. There are more than 3,500 known species of fly in the family

そして、ビブハエの登場だ。ハエ科には3,500種以上が知られている。

Culicidae, otherwise known as moscovitos. All of them begin their lives underwater.

イエバエ科、別名モスコビトス。そのすべてが水中で生活を始める。

This shot is pretty crazy. The newly emerged larvae have to breathe, and they breathe air.

このショットはかなりクレイジーだ。出てきたばかりの幼虫は呼吸をしなければならない。

But they don't do it with their mouth holes. They do it with their back bits. Right there, right above the pooper, is something called a siphon. Some species, like those in the genus

しかし、彼らは口の穴でそれをするのではない。背中の穴でするのだ。ウンチのすぐ上にサイフォンと呼ばれるものがある。いくつかの種は、例えば

Culex, have quite long siphons, and they look a bit like those poles on bumper cars that connect to the roof. When the siphon is underwater, five little flaps on the end pucker up to keep it shut. But when they attach to the surface of the water, they open up. And that is how they breathe. Look at that. You're staring right into a mosquito's butt. You can try this in your local pool. Just jackknife under the water, let your butt breach, and spread them. Then blow out your mouth real hard and see how long you last before you get arrested. Air enters the siphon and into a series of tubes, which transport oxygen to parts of the body. Some species, like those in the genus Anopheles, don't have a siphon. Instead, they have a hole on one of their segments. And to breathe, they lie parallel to the water's surface, which has some drawbacks. Anopheles kind of does its own thing. Look at that. Its head can turn all the way around. It's horrifying. Demon baby.

クレックスは、かなり長いサイフォンを持ち、バンパーカーの屋根につながるポールのような形をしている。サイフォンが水中にあるときは、先端にある5つの小さなフラップが閉じている。しかし水面に浮上すると、フラップは開く。そうやって呼吸するんだ。見てごらん。蚊のお尻を見つめているようだ。お近くのプールで試してみてください。水中でジャックナイフをし、お尻を突き出して蚊を広げる。そして口を思いっきり開けて、逮捕される前にどれだけもつか試してみよう。空気はサイフォンから一連の管に入り、酸素を体の一部に運ぶ。アノフェレス属

The main job of a larva is to eat and grow in preparation for its transformation into an adult.

幼虫の主な仕事は、成虫への変身に備えて食べて成長することだ。

Most species are filter feeders and use little brushes to filter tiny crap that's floating about into their mouths, like straining soup through a moustache. There are, however, mosquito babies that specialize in eating other mosquito babies. For example, the larvae of the elephant mosquito

ほとんどの種類は濾過摂食性で、小さなブラシを使って、口ひげでスープを濾すように、浮遊している小さなゴミを濾過して口に入れる。しかし、他の蚊の赤ちゃんを食べることに特化した蚊の赤ちゃんもいる。例えば、ゾウ蚊の幼虫がそうだ。

Toxorhynchitis. I bet you can't tell which one it is. Got him right on the butt. And that's the thing about kindergarten. There's always a biter. And in this case, there's a bunch of them. I mean, look at this freaking thing. The larva of the fly Chaeborus. Looks like a can opener that came to life. I mean, you certainly don't get close to there. Told you. Now that baby dead baby. And then you have to worry about the dragonfly larva. Psychos. And look at that. They eat your butt first, too. It's a terrible way to die. Start with my face if you eat me. And I don't even know what this one is. I'm not googling it. Don't want that in my search history mixed in with the porn.

胸膜炎。どっちがどっちかわからないでしょう？お尻をやられたんだ。それが幼稚園の問題なんだ。いつも噛みつき魔がいる今回は大勢だつまり、こいつを見てみろ。ハエの幼虫だ缶切りみたいだ近寄っちゃダメだ言っただろ。その赤ん坊は死んだ。そしてトンボの幼虫の心配をしなければならない。サイコだ見てみろ。彼らはあなたのお尻も最初に食べる。ひどい死に方だ。俺を食うなら顔からだ。これが何なのかも知らない。ググらない。ポルノと一緒に検索履歴に残したくない。

Someone might get the wrong idea. The point is, it can be tough to be a little mosquito baby and make it all the way until you're ready to pupate. Sorry, pupate. As the larvae grow, they must molt and shed their exoskeletons. On the fourth molt, however, something different happens.

誰かが誤解するかもしれない。重要なのは、小さな蚊の赤ちゃんで、蛹になるまでずっとやっていくのは大変だということだ。すみません、蛹化です。幼虫は成長するにつれて脱皮し、外骨格を脱ぎ捨てなければならない。しかし4回目の脱皮では、いつもと違うことが起こる。

Instead of emerging as a bigger larva, it emerges as a pupa. Two little ear-like things called trumpets pop out at the front near the head. They are the new breathing apparatus which replaces the siphon. Their body becomes more of a shrimpy, curled-up sort of thing. It sort of looks like a depressed ghost. Like one time he said boob by mistake and now everyone laughs at him. Inside this pupa, the adult form of the mosquito will be constructed. But listen, this isn't some bulls**t butterfly pupa that just sits there while you wait. This thing can move and dives quickly if there's danger about. In two to three days, the transformation is complete. Now, slightly above the surface of the water, the back of the pupa splits open. Underwater, you can see air enter the pupa as its exoskeleton separates from the adult within. And that s**t is packed in there good. I mean, there's a lot of parts in there folded up. It's like getting a bunk bed in a box from

より大きな幼虫として出現する代わりに、サナギとして出現する。前頭部の頭部付近には、トランペットと呼ばれる小さな耳のようなものが2つ飛び出している。これはサイフォンに代わる新しい呼吸器官である。体はエビのように丸まったものになる。落ち込んだ幽霊のような感じだ。あるとき間違えてオッパイと言ってしまい、今ではみんなに笑われているような感じだ。このサナギの中で、蚊の成虫が作られる。しかし聞いてくれ、これはただ座って待っているだけの、でたらめな蝶のサナギではない。こいつは動けるし、危険が迫ればすぐに飛び込む。2～3

Ikea. On the surface, it is a pretty fantastic entrance. It's like how Lady Gaga would come out on stage. Very dramatic. On the other hand, Toxorhynchides, the elephant mosquito, emerges a little more like, hello. I mean, it is a pretty incredible transformation. A few days ago, this thing was a friggin worm. And I'll tell you, puberty would be a lot better if it happened all at once like that.

イケア。表面的には、かなりファンタスティックな登場だ。レディー・ガガがステージに出てくるようなものだ。とてもドラマチックだ。一方、ゾウ蚊のToxorhynchidesは、「こんにちは」という感じで登場する。つまり、かなり信じられないような変貌を遂げるのだ。数日前まで、こいつはミミズだったんだ。こんな風に一気に変身してくれたら、思春期ももっと楽しくなるのに。

Just unzip the back, pull off the skin, and you'd have a full bush on your pits. After its wings and body have dried out a bit, the newly emerged adult is ready for its first flight. No qualifications, no prior experience, by the way, unless you count convulsive swimming. Fortunately, the adult is equipped with some very sensitive navigational instruments. Two antennae, which can get quite bushy-pushy, especially with the males, connect back to two bulbs over the eyes. These contain

背中のジッパーを開け、皮を剥ぐだけで、あなたの胸には完全な茂みができる。翅と体が少し乾いたら、生まれたばかりの成虫は初飛行の準備を整える。ちなみに、痙攣泳法を除けば、資格も経験もない。幸いなことに、成虫には非常に敏感な航行装置が装備されている。本の触角は、特にオスの場合、かなりふさふさになり、目の上の2つの球根に接続されている。これらには

Johnston's organ. Named after Johnston, who must have had a tiny organ, Johnston's organ can sense the slightest movement, grow up, of the antennae. It is incredibly sensitive. It is thought that when they approach an object, they can sense minute changes to the airflow around their body. This allows them to fly in the dark without bumping into things. Their wing stroke is quite unusual.

ジョンストン器官。小さな器官を持っていたに違いないジョンストンにちなんで名付けられたジョンストン器官は、触角のわずかな動きや成長を感知することができる。信じられないほど敏感だ。物体に近づくと、体の周りの気流の微細な変化を感じ取ると考えられている。そのため、暗闇でも物にぶつかることなく飛ぶことができる。彼らの翼のストロークはかなり珍しい。

It is a shallow, twisty-twisty movement that creates pockets of swirling air which support the mosquito in flight. Now that it can fly, the newly emerged adult needs to find food.

浅く曲がりくねった動きで、渦を巻く空気のポケットを作り、蚊の飛行をサポートする。飛べるようになった新成虫は、餌を探す必要がある。

I know what you're thinking, but before you get your undies in a bunch, you should know that for day-to-day nourishment, mosquitoes eat sugar, mainly from the nectar of flowers. This means they are pollinators. Look at this one, he's filthy with it. He's got plant sperm all over him.

何を考えているかはわかるが、その前に知っておいてほしいのは、蚊は日々の栄養として、主に花の蜜から糖分を摂取しているということだ。つまり、花粉媒介者なのだ。この蚊を見てごらん。植物の精子で汚れている。

There are some flowers that are mainly pollinated by the mosquito. Males of all species will only eat sugar their entire lives. Females of most species will also take blood meals in preparation for laying eggs. But there are some species, like the elephant mosquito Toxorhynchides, that don't feed on blood at all. It's like the perfect mosquito. It eats other mosquito larvae, pollinates flowers, and it doesn't even bite. Sure, if that back leg there fired a little laser, it'd be more perfect, but still. Hello? In order to make babies, female mosquitoes need some of that male mosquito sperm.

主に蚊が受粉する花がある。すべての種のオスは、一生砂糖しか食べない。ほとんどの種のメスは産卵に備えて血液も摂取する。しかし、ゾウカToxorhynchidesのように、まったく血を食べない種もいる。まるで完璧な蚊だ。他の蚊の幼虫を食べ、花の受粉をし、刺すことさえしない。確かに、あの後ろ足がちょっとレーザーを発射したら、もっと完璧になるだろうけど、それでもね。もしもし？メスの蚊が赤ちゃんを作るには、オスの蚊の精子が必要なんだ。

Where were we? Oh, right. In order to make babies, female mosquitoes must mate, and depending on the species, that goes down in different ways. Sabethes are the most extra. They do a little courtship dance for each other in their disco leggings, like they were club kids in Ibiza. Jerry, do we have footage of that? No, that's not it. That's a frog peeing on another frog, Jerry. What do you mean, how can I tell? It's... Never mind. Deinosaurides wins the award for creepiest mating. They live inside of crab holes, which should set off alarm bells right there. These are Deinosaurides males on the surface of the water. They're sort of skate fighting with each other to jockey for position. Because here's what they do. They camp out over a pupa and wait for it to emerge. If it's a female, they mate with her right then, before she can even fly. Told you, crab hole creep. With other species, like Aedes aegypti, it's more like a hookup at a karaoke bar. Males get all turned on by that f***ing whining sound of the female's wings. Look right here. You can play a female tone out an earbud, and a male will come over and try to hump it. Disappointing for the male, but also the earbud, who's already got a sh***y job jammed in your earhole playing your podcasts, and now it's getting d***ed by a skater. Anyway, when the male approaches the female, the two seem to adjust their wing beats to try to converge on a harmony. Now, if the female isn't into it, she has plenty of ways to tell the male to f*** right off. But if she hears what she likes, she accepts. Even if she's freaking glued to a rod.

どこまで話したっけ？ああ、そうだった。子供を作るためには、メスの蚊は交尾をしなければならない。サベツは最も余分なものだ。ディスコ・レギンスを履いて求愛ダンスをするんだ、まるでイビサ島のクラブキッズみたいにね。ジェリー、その映像はある？いや、それはない。カエルが別のカエルにおしっこしてるんだよ、ジェリー。どういう意味だ?それは...気にしないでデイノサウルスは最も不気味な交尾の賞を受賞した。彼らはカニの穴の中で生活しているんだ。これは水面にいるデイノサウルスのオス。彼らは互いにスケートでポジションを争ってい

I don't know if I'd be up for it, but everyone's got a kink. A blood-feeding female needs blood to make her eggs. The majority of species don't prefer humans. Anything that has blood is fair game. There are species that specialize in frogs or snakes. Some feed on fish like mudskippers or even manatees. Uranotinea safarina prefers earthworms, and the earthworms seem like they're down with it. Free acupuncture. Look, they're riding on it. It's cute. In this clip, when a car goes by, the vibrations cause the worms to duck underground, and the mosquitoes kind of get pulled in with them. I'm telling you, if you have blood, you're getting bit. Even the mosquito itself isn't safe. There's a midge that specializes in feeding from mosquitoes that have just been feeding on something else. And you know something's sucking on them too. It's mosquitoes all the way down. The mosquitoes who've gotten a taste for humans, on the other hand, are very good at finding us. When we exhale, we create a plume of carbon dioxide. Mosquitoes that enter one of these plumes become hypersensitive to other stimuli and try to track back to the source. When they get close enough to use their vision, they look for dark colors and areas of high contrast. When they get even closer, they can sense body heat and the odors from sweat and bacteria. Some species, like

私がその気になるかどうかはわからないが、誰にでも変態はいるものだ。血を吸うメスは卵を作るために血を必要とする。大多数の種は人間を好まない。血があれば何でもいい。カエルやヘビに特化した種もいる。ムツゴロウやマナティのような魚を食べるものもいる。ウラノティネア・サファリナはミミズを好み、ミミズも喜んでいるようだ。無料の鍼治療だ。見て、乗っている。かわいい。この映像では、車が通ると、その振動でミミズが地下にもぐりこみ、蚊も一緒にもぐりこんでいる。血があれば刺される。蚊自体も安全ではない。何かを食べている蚊を専門

Anopheles gambia, are particularly attracted to the smell of feet, the little kinky bastards.

アノフェレス・ガンビアは特に足の臭いに惹かれる。

So go ahead and hold your breath. They'll find you anyway. When these mosquitoes land, they have a bounce to them and even use their mouthparts as shock absorbers. And let me tell you, these are not your ordinary mouthparts. On the outside, there's a sheath. It looks like a closed tube, but it actually has a slit up the front, more like a rolled up piece of paper. At the very tip of the sheath, there are two sensory probes called labella. You can think of them as little kissy lips. Now, when the mouthparts are inserted, the labella stays on the surface of the skin. The sheath splits open and bends into a sort of u-shape, and you can see what's inside. Now, it looks a bit like a needle, but it's actually six different structures bundled together. Two of them are like the muscle of the operation, with tiny little saws that cut through the skin. Two others are like the lookouts. They hold the tissue apart. They hate their job. The two remaining are like the masterminds of the heist.

だから、息を止めていなさい。いずれにせよ、彼らはあなたを見つけるだろう。この蚊は上陸するとき、跳ねるような弾みがあり、口ばしをショックアブソーバーのように使うことさえある。言っておくが、これは普通の口器ではない。外側には鞘がある。閉じた筒のように見えるが、実は前面に切れ目があり、紙を丸めたような形をしている。鞘の一番先端には、ラベラと呼ばれる2本の感覚プローブがある。小さなキスの唇のようなものだ。さて、口吻が挿入されると、ラベルは皮膚の表面にとどまる。鞘が割れてU字型に曲がり、中身が見える。針のように見え

One, which pumps in saliva, is like the security and alarm systems expert. The other, the labrum, is the closer. It pierces the blood vessels and sucks the blood up. From the top, it looks fairly straightforward, but under the skin, you can see it's a little more loosey-goosey. This looks like the inside view of a teddy bear being humped by a chihuahua. You can see the mouthparts separate, and they're very bendy-bendy and flexible. There's often quite a bit of searching that has to happen before a capillary is found. Remember, they can't see any of this. They're just groping around like a surgeon operating on a patient buried in a ball pit, and they make mistakes. Look, it went right through that blood vessel. That's a mess, and if you suck on one too fast, you can collapse it.

ひとつは唾液を送り込むポンプで、セキュリティや警報システムの専門家のようなものだ。もうひとつは、臼蓋（きゅうがい）。血管を貫通し、血液を吸い上げる。上から見ると、かなり単純に見えるが、皮膚の下では、もう少しルーズな構造になっているのがわかる。これはまるで、チワワにこづかれるテディベアの内面図のようだ。口吻が分離しているのが見えるが、非常に曲げやすく柔軟性がある。毛細血管を見つけるまでには、多くの場合、かなりの探索が必要だ。覚えておいてほしいのは、彼らには何も見えないということだ。ボールピットに埋もれた患者

Now, with all this fiddling about, the mosquito risks being detected. However, the mosquito's saliva contains cocktails that help turn off the host's alarm systems, both numbing the nerves and suppressing the immune response. The saliva can also contain some unwanted hitchhikers the mosquito picked up from another host. These pathogens cause a variety of disease. Only about five percent of mosquito species carry pathogens dangerous to humans, but those five percent are a doozy and have killed more people than any other animal, including people, and people are very good at killing people. When a good blood vessel is finally found, pumps in the head pull the blood up and into the tum-tums. Liquids get expelled out the back to concentrate the blood meal. I mean, that's straight up DWE, defecating while eating, and you know you're not supposed to do that, not often. The female's tummy parts secrete a membrane that surrounds the ingested blood. This allows her to continue eating sugar while the blood is broken down into the building blocks she will need to make eggs. That's right, there are mosquito babies out there that were made from bits of you. Some species, like those in the genus Haenopheles, pictured here with a match so you can get a sense of how hard it is for them to pick up a smoking habit, lay their eggs individually on the surface of ponds or marshes, and each egg is equipped with little floaties on either side. Other species prefer to lay their eggs in containers that fill up with water when it rains. Could be a hole in a tree stump or a discarded tire, even the cup of a flower. On the plus side, if you lay your eggs in those, there won't be any fish or dragonfly larvae. On the other hand, it might dry out before your larvae become adults.

さて、このように大騒ぎしていると、蚊は発見される危険性がある。しかし、蚊の唾液には宿主の警報システムをオフにするカクテルが含まれており、神経を麻痺させ、免疫反応を抑制する。唾液には、蚊が他の宿主から拾ってきた不要なヒッチハイカーも含まれていることがある。これらの病原体はさまざまな病気を引き起こす。人間にとって危険な病原体を持っている蚊は全体の5％程度だが、その5％がとんでもないもので、人間を含む他のどの動物よりも多くの人を殺してきた。ようやく良い血管が見つかると、頭のポンプが血液を引き上げ、おなかの中に入

As a sort of insurance, Aedes aegypti lays its eggs above the waterline. There they—oh, she knocked a couple down. No mother's perfect. I mean, who hasn't lost a child or two at the water park?

一種の保険として、イエネコは水際の上に卵を産む。そこで......ああ、彼女は2、3個倒した。完璧な母親はいない。つまり、ウォーターパークで子供の一人や二人、失ったことのない人などいないのだ。

There they can stay dried out until it rains again and the container fills up more.

また雨が降ってコンテナがいっぱいになるまで、乾燥した状態を保つことができる。

Now, Toxorhynchides, the best mosquito, also likes laying its eggs in containers, especially if there's other mosquito larvae in there that its babies can eat.

さて、最高の蚊であるトキソヒノキデスも、容器に卵を産み付けるのが好きだ。特に、赤ちゃんが食べられる他の蚊の幼虫がいればなおさらだ。

They sort of butt-whip their eggs into the container while they're flying.

彼らは飛んでいる間、卵を容器にぶちまけるようなものだ。

If you look close, you can see it. Right there. Little egg bomb. Now, here's something special.

近くで見ればわかる。あそこだ。小さな卵爆弾。さて、ここに特別なものがある。

Researcher Rachel Morreale recently observed a novel behavior. When the smaller Aedes aegypti females sense that a Toxorhynchides female is egg-bombing their hole, they fly right up and start harassing it. Look, they're knocking right into her like a blackbird mobbing a hawk.

レイチェル・モレール研究員は最近、新しい行動を観察した。小型のイエネコのメスは、トキソヒヨケムシのメスが自分たちの穴に卵を埋め込んでいるのを察知すると、すぐに飛んできて嫌がらせを始めるのだ。ほら、まるでタカに群がるクロツグミのように、メスに体当たりしている。

That's aggressive mothering. You wouldn't expect that. But here's another one.

アグレッシブ・マザリングだ。あなたはそれを期待しないだろう。しかし、もう一つある。

Females in the genus Trichoprosapon—I can't pronounce that. Jerry, fix it in post, would you?

トリコプロサポン属の雌......発音できない。ジェリー、ポストで直してくれないか？

Females in the genus Trigonsbone stay with their eggs and guard them.

トリゴンズボーン属のメスは卵のそばに留まり、卵を守る。

Their eggs are arranged in a little raft that she holds between her legs.

卵は小さないかだの中に並べられ、彼女は股の間に挟む。

Now, other species make rafts, too, and they're very carefully constructed.

今、他の種族もいかだを作っているが、それはとても注意深く作られている。

Here you can see a female Culex mosquito building one of her rafts, each egg individually glued to the others.

ここでは、メスのキュウリハムシがいかだを作っているところを見ることができる。

I mean, that's magic right there. It's like pulling a rabbit out of a hat.

つまり、これはマジックなんだ。帽子からウサギを出すようなものだ。

I mean, if the hat was your butt and the rabbit was a tic-tac, it looks like the stress test room in a condom factory.

帽子がお尻で、ウサギがチクタクだとしたら、まるでコンドーム工場のストレステスト室のようだ。

How are they holding up? There's a little leakage, but other than that, they're fine.

履き心地はどうですか？少し漏れがあるが、それ以外は問題ない。

What, Jerry? What do you mean, what are mosquitoes good for? You don't ask that question, Jerry.

何、ジェリー？蚊が何に効くかって？そんなこと聞くんじゃない、ジェリー。

Mosquitoes are good for making more mosquitoes, that's what. Ask a chicken what people are good for. You won't like what the chicken says. And now look, on top of everything else, you've got a talking chicken. And let me tell you, that gets annoying.

蚊は蚊を増やすためにいるんだ。ニワトリに「人間は何のためにいるのか」と尋ねてみよう。ニワトリの言うことは気に入らないだろう。そして今、他のすべてに加えて、あなたはしゃべるニワトリを持っている。言っておくが、それは迷惑な話だ。

Jerry, I laid an egg. Jerry, I laid another egg.

ジェリー、卵を産んだよ。ジェリー、また卵を産んだよ。

Jerry, I laid—oh, sorry, that's not an egg. And you snap and say something hurtful.

ジェリー、僕が産んだのは......ああ、ごめん、それは卵じゃないんだ。そして、あなたはキレて傷つけるようなことを言う。

Like, I don't care about your stupid eggs, chicken. And now look what you did.

お前のくだらない卵なんてどうでもいいんだよ、チキン。そして今、君がしたことを見てごらん。

That's why you don't ask what something's good for, Jerry. You end up with a sulky chicken.

だから、何がおいしいか聞かないんだよ、ジェリー。不機嫌なチキンができあがるだけだ。

Wants to meet you. She likes your feet, too. Watch her slide up. Mosquito says, hello.

あなたに会いたがっている。彼女はあなたの足も好きだ。彼女が滑るのを見よう。蚊が、こんにちは、と言っている。

Mosquito says, hello. Mosquito says, hello. Mosquito says, hello.

モスキート曰く、こんにちは。モスキート曰く、こんにちは。蚊は言う、こんにちは。

Mosquito says, hello.

蚊がこんにちはと言っている。
