I grabbed my camera and carefully positioned myself to take this wildlife encounter. The second time: same thing. The third time: I picked up my phone and took a snapshot. By the fourth or fifth time, I didn't even look when I felt something bump into me. I knew what it was.I was there to shoot a story about island restoration（修复） in the Seychelles,far off the east coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. Until roughly the middle of the past century, the small island nation showed signs of real environmental killing-local vegetation（植被）-cleared to make way for coconut plantations, foreign rats andmice running uncontrolled, native sea turtles and giant tortoises being exploited. Biodiversity seemed destroyed. But then the country experienced a shift in conservation awareness—and the giant Aldabra tortoises are among its most visiblesigns.Every morning when I woke up and walked outside the hut, I had to remind myself that I hadn't traveled back in time. I could see flightless Aldabra rails, coconut crabs the size of dinner plates, and giant tortoises-roughly four feet long and weighing up to 550 pounds—just wandering around. The number of sharks in the bay was crazy.Frigatebirds and boobies（鸟） nested in the mangroves （a kind of tree）. Whenwe left our hut doors open, which we often did to let in air, the tortoises would walk right through.In the late afternoon or early evening, whenever they'd finished eating, the tortoises would drop themselves down and fall asleep with their heads outstretched. That made nighttime trips to the outhouse perilous（险 恶的）. To get there, we'dhave to go 200 feet into the mangroves, negotiating what I called the tortoise slalom（之形障碍） trail. It was a track without a pattern, because of course they pickeddifferent places to sleep every night. Avoiding them was important: Falling headfirst over a tortoise onto the sharp coral rock could lead to serious injury on an island far from medical facilities.Nothing was easy on Aldabra, and much of it was insanely difficult. Yet living among the tortoises in this primordial place, in one of the last spots where reptiles still rule, was one of the happiest times of my life.4.
