🦆Some animals, like horses and elephants, look exactly how you would expect them to when they enter the world. Others, well, if mom and baby were standing next to each other, you might not think they were even the same species. Check out these baby animals that definitely don't look like mom or dad.
🦆有些动物,比如马和大象,他们出生时的样子与你的预期完全一致。而有些动物,如果妈妈和宝宝站在一起,你可能不会认为他们是同一物种。看看这些看起来不像爸爸妈妈的小动物们吧。

Giant panda
大熊猫
🦆These cute bears may have the word giant in their name, but the only word to describe the babies when born is miniature.
这些可爱的熊宝宝虽然名字里有“大”字,但实际上他们只能用微型来形容。
Frogs
青蛙
🦆We might not be able to see giant pandas as they grow into adulthood, but we can watch frogs as they go through their metamorphosis.
可能我们没有办法见证大熊猫进入成年期的过程,但是我们可以观察蝌蚪的整个变态过程。
Swan
天鹅
🦆We can't have this kind of list without swans. After all, there is a whole story ("The Ugly Duckling") that's plot hinges around the difference.
我们的名单里不能少了天鹅。毕竟《丑小鸭》的故事情节道尽了丑小“鸭”与成年天鹅的不同。
Ocean sunfish
翻车鱼
🦆We can guarantee that if you saw mom and baby next to each other, you wouldn't guess that the tiny pinhead sized fish would one day grow up into the giant and odd-looking parent.
我们保证当你看见翻车鱼宝宝跟它的母亲在一起的时候,你绝对想不到这种针头大小的鱼有一天会长成它父母那样怪异,巨大。
King vulture
国王秃鹫
Very few birds look like their parents when born. The feathers generally don't start out as the same color, often making them difficult to identify. The king vulture goes a step further.
很少有鸟在出生的时候就长得跟父母一样。他们的羽毛在最开始的时候与成年期的颜色并不相同,这使得它们的身份难以确认,而国王秃鹫在出生时期就更不像它们的父母了。
