Golden mantellas are insectivores, feeding on termites, fruit flies, and a range of other insects.

金色曼蛙是食，它们的食包括白蚁，果蝇以及其他。

Birds known as aerial insectivores are also at risk because the insects they eat are getting harder to find.

空食的鸟也受到威胁，因为它们食用的越来越稀少。

If you eat insects you are an insectivore.

如果你吃，你就是食。

Rising populations of insect species attract hungry insectivores, like birds and reptiles, who entice larger carnivores and apex predators.

群数量的增加吸引饥饿的食，如鸟类和爬行，它们吸引更大的食肉和顶级掠食者。

Among mammals, most insectivores are small animals like hedgehogs or shrews.

在哺乳，大多数食是像刺猬或鼩鼱这样的小。

They evolved into smaller-bodied insectivores with delicate jaws, short limbs, and single claws.

它们进化成体型较小的食，具有精致的下巴、短小的四肢和单爪。

But the earliest members of the drepanosaur line started to adapt to a specific niche -- that of tree-climbing insectivores.

但是，最早的恐龙类成员开始适应一个特定的生态环境——爬树食。

And they're principally insectivores, meat eaters, but they do play a very important role when it comes to maintaining the plant community in this ecosystem.

它们主要捕食，是食肉，但它们在维持这个生态系统的植群落，确实起着相当重要的作用。

Paleontologists aren't sure what they ate, as their forearms were in between those of their carnivorous ancestors and the later specialized insectivores.

古生学家不确定他们吃什么，因为他们的前臂介于他们的肉食性祖先和后来专门的食的前臂之间。

This seems like it could be a possibility, because there are modern insectivores, like some species of shrews, that use ultrasound for communication or navigation.

这似乎是有可能的，因为现代食，如某些类的鼩鼱， 使用超声波进行通讯或导航。

While there is some debate about it, paleontologists think that Alvarezsaurus was an insectivore that used its finger claw to rip into logs in search of termites.

虽然对此存在一些争论，但古生学家认为阿尔瓦雷兹龙是一食，它用指爪撕裂原木以寻找白蚁。

And one reason this trait might've been important for early mammaliaforms and then for the first crown mammals is that many of them were small insectivores who probably hunted at night.

这特性可能对早期哺乳很重要，然后对第一个皇冠哺乳很重要的一个原因是，它们的许多都是小型食，可能在夜间捕食。

And the reason for that is probably because they were good strategies for survival in the niches that they occupied: being small to medium-sized insectivores living in a world full of large reptiles.

其原因可能是因为它们是在它们占据的生态位生存的好策略：作为生活在充满大型爬行的世界的小型食。

Some 180m years ago, during the early part of the Jurassic period, this site was a lake where mayflies lived and swarmed to mate, as they do today, providing, as a side-effect, a feast for local insectivores.

大约1.8亿年前，在侏罗纪早期，这个地方是一个湖泊，蜉蝣生活在那里，成群交配，就像今天一样，同时也为当地的食提供一场盛宴。
