The bizarre behaviour of a troop of 'hysterical' baboons at a Dutch zoo has been blamed on everything from an earthquake to a UFO. 荷兰动物园里的一群狒狒“行为诡异”，造成这一现象的原因还没确定，有人说是地震引起的，还有人说是不明飞行物来袭。 Ordinarily seen scampering around on their island at the Emmen Dieren park in the northern Netherlands, the gang of 112 monkeys have been sitting frozen on the ground and turning their backs on visitors this week. 在荷兰北部埃曼动物公园里，昔日在岛上蹦跳嬉闹的112只狒狒这周却一反常态，像石化了一般背对着游客静坐。 The baboons have even lost their appetites, say baffled zoologists at the park, who have heard various theories as to what may be behind the animals' strange behaviour. 公园里的动物学家们也很困惑，他们表示这些狒狒甚至连食欲也没了，人们用千奇百怪的理论来解释狒狒的奇怪行为。 'They became panicked at the end of the day on Monday, they were hysterical, not jumping around but behaving strangely,' zoologist Wijbren Landman told AFP. 'On Tuesday and Wednesday they just sat in the trees or on the ground, hardly moving or eating.' 动物学家郎德曼告诉法新社：“它们周一晚些时候就开始变得焦躁不安，歇斯底里。它们不再四处蹦跶，行为变得十分怪异。到了周二和周三，狒狒们就坐在树上或地下，几乎不动也不吃。” |
