A brief introduction to the author of Nature?
Boluo Maunsel 1942- 1999. A famous American writer whose masterpiece is The Secret of Nature.

The article "The Way of Nature". The article tells that "I" traveled on an island with seven companions and a biologist guide. A large group of young turtles became a good meal for carnivorous birds because they saved a young turtle. I arrived in Galapagos Island in the South Pacific with seven traveling companions and a biologist guide in droves. One purpose of our trip is that there are many nests of Pacific green turtles on this island to hatch baby turtles. We want to observe on the spot how young turtles leave their nests and enter the sea. The weight of Pacific green turtle is about 150 kg, while the weight of young turtle is less than 1%. Young turtles usually leave their nests in April and May. Scrambling to climb to the sea. It's just a long beach from the turtle nest to the sea. If we don't pay attention, it may become food for carnivorous birds such as eagles. When we went to the island that day, it was near dusk, and we soon found a big turtle's nest. Suddenly, a young turtle first poked its head out of its nest, but wanted to stop, as if to detect whether it was safe outside. Just as the little turtle hesitated, the tour guide casually replied, "Take it, that's the way of nature." The indifference of the tour guide attracted the voice of "inevitable destruction" from his companions. Reluctantly, the tour guide picked up the turtle and took it to the seaside. The mocking eagle saw the delicious food and flew away in despair. However, what happened next shocked everyone. Shortly after the tour guide took the turtles away, groups of small turtles filed out of the nest. Reality soon showed that we had done a stupid thing. The first young turtle to come out turned out to be a "scout" of the turtle. Once it is in danger, it will return to the turtle nest. Now, the little turtles in the nest got the wrong message and thought it was safe outside, so they rushed out together. At dusk, the sun still shines on the island I heard someone behind me say, "Look what we have done!" At this time, dozens of small turtles have become the mouths of robins, seagulls and boobies. Our guide quickly took off his baseball cap, grabbed a dozen little turtles, put them in his hat and ran to the beach. We also learn to breathe back and forth like him, which makes up for our mistakes. After all this, dozens of carnivorous birds are full and happy. I hope to catch the last lost turtle to cook. My companions and I hung our heads and walked slowly on the beach. It seems that everything is silent among this group of mortals. Finally, the tour guide issued his lament: "If it weren't for us humans, these turtles wouldn't be hurt at all." Man is the soul of everything, but when he is smart, everything may go the other way.
