opah

Fish as a rule stay the temperature of the water around them . Not the opah .

一般来说，鱼类体温均会与其周围水温保持同等温度，而月鱼是个例外。

The Majestic Opah Is The World 's First Truly Warm Blooded Fish !

大月鱼成为世界上首例温血鱼类

This opah is about as close to a full-body warm-blooded fish as science has yet discovered .

这条月鱼就像还未被科学家探索到的全身恒温鱼类。

The Opah is a striking fish species that can grow as large as 7-feet in diameter and weigh over 100 pounds .

月鱼是一种大型鱼类，它直径能长到7英尺，重达100多磅。

Now thanks to some curious California researchers that mystery has finally been solved - The Opah has warm-blood !

现在，好奇的加利福尼亚研究者终于解开了这个谜题——月鱼是温血鱼类！

Even Wegner , who specializes in the respiratory adaptations of fast-swimming fish , later admitted that he had always thought the Opah was just another sluggish cold-blooded deep-water species .

专注于游动飞快的鱼类的呼吸适应研究的Wegner后来也承认，自己一直以为月鱼只是迟钝的冷血深水鱼类。

It all began in 2012 when Southwest Fisheries Science Center researchers Owyn Snodgrass and Heidi Dewar caught a few more Opah specimens than normal during a research trip off the Southern California coast .

在2012年，西南水产科学研究中心的研究员OwynSnodgrass和HeidiDewar在去南加利福尼亚海岸做调查的路途中，碰巧多抓了些月鱼标本。

The opah ( Lampris guttatus ) is about the size of a car tire and almost as round . That shape helps explain why the opah is sometimes called a moonfish .

月鱼大小约摸一个小汽车轮胎大，几乎是圆的，这便是月鱼另一个名称----翻车鱼的来源。
