鸬鹚捕鱼英语课文

Cormorant fishing is a traditional fishing method in which fishermen use

trained cormorants to fish in rivers. Historically, cormorant fishing has taken place

in Japan and China from around 960 AD.[1] and recorded from other places

throughout the world.

To control the birds, the fishermen tie a snare near the base of the bird's throat.

This prevents the birds from swallowing larger fish, which are held in their throat,

but the birds can swallow smaller fish. When a cormorant has caught a fish in its

throat, the fisherman brings the bird back to the boat and has the bird spit the fish

up. Though cormorant fishing once was a successful industry, its primary use

today is to serve the tourism industry.

The types of cormorants used differ based on the location. In Gifu, Japan, the

Japanese Cormorant (P. capillatus) is used; Chinese fishermen often employ Great

Cormorants (P. carbo).[2]Darters (Anhinga), which are very close relatives of

cormorants, are also used for this fishing technique on occasion.

China

In Guilin, China, cormorant birds are famous for fishing on the shallow Lijiang

River.

Europe

Cormorant fishing is an old tradition in Macedonia[3], especially on Dojran

Lake in the south-eastern part of the country, where it is still practiced today by

some traditional fishermen. In Western Europe, cormorant fishing took place

briefly from the 16th to 17th centuries, primarily in England and France. Though

the fishing method was similar to those used in Japan and China, the European

method was developed independently and was closely related to falconry.

Japan

Cormorant fishing, called ukai (鹈饲) in Japanese, takes place in 13 cities in

Japan. The most famous location is Gifu, Gifu Prefecture, home to Cormorant

Fishing on the Nagara River, which has continued uninterrupted for the past 1,300

ant fishing in Seki also takes place on the Nagara River, but it is called

"Oze Cormorant Fishing" (小瀬鹈饲 Oze Ukai). Only the cormorant fishing masters

in Gifu and Seki are employed by the emperor and called Imperial Fishermen of

the Royal Household Agency.

Tethered and collared, cormorants catch and disgorge fish into a boat in Japan.

在日本,鸬鹚被绳绑着,戴上脖套,它们捕鱼并被迫把鱼吐回船里。

Peru

There are records of a form of cormorant fishing taking place in Peru back in

the 5th century, 100 years earlier than recorded cormorant fishing in Japan.
