聚焦著名的“孤独者”——“52赫兹鲸鱼”的海洋传说：1989年，科学家发现在茫茫大海中， 一头鲸鱼可能终生过着独自一鲸的生活，因为它的发声频率是52赫兹，与普通鲸鱼的频率迥异，无法沟通。很多设备捕捉到过它发出的信号，但世界上没有别的生物能够明白它在说什么，在唱什么，也没有人真正追踪到过“52”本身。而此后，又陆续有别的不同发现……无论如何，此事成为了文化现象，引起了许多好奇，也有很多人用各种方式寻找“52”，最终有人领悟了一个关于生命的故事。

The Loneliest Animals 　　Introduction 　　Around the globe, unique and fascinating species face extinction from hunting and habitat destruction, which affects vulnerable animals in every kind of environment. Biologists, conservationists, wildlife preservation centers and zoological parks work to breed and shelter rare and critically endangered animals when and where they can, but many species are down to the last few individuals and face an increasingly uncertain future. For some, however, the future is all too clear. Lonesome George, a Pinta Island tortoise from the Galapagos Islands, is the very last of his kind. For centuries, until they were believed to be extinct, his species kept sailors and pirates well-fed on the high seas. George alone survived. But when George dies, millions of years of evolution will come to an end. Other species, like Spix’s macaws, lemurs, Iberian lynxes, rhinos, black-footed ferrets and Chinese rafetus turtles, were well on their way to joining George as the loneliest animals in the world until help arrived, providing hope for a better outcome. 　　Each species in trouble presents unique challenges, including inbreeding and lack of genetic diversity, sibling rivalry on an extreme scale, and individuals who may never have seen another of their kind. There are some successes with captive breeding. For example, the black-footed ferret, once thought to be entirely extinct, is now being reintroduced to its natural home on the American plains after an incredible intervention by scientists. But rebounding in artificial settings doesn’t put endangered animals in the clear – populations may grow, but without successful action to preserve and maintain their wild habitats, they may be confined to laboratories and sanctuaries forever. 　　The Loneliest Animals follows the plight of these incredible, charismatic creatures and the struggles of the dedicated conservationists who fight for them.
