動物王國Animal Kingdom - Jacqueline Chuang

很久很久以前，有一個受傷的獅王在洞穴裡被三隻野狼脅迫, 野狼們說：「咱們現在來瓜分肉食吧！」

Once upon a time, there was an injured lion king who was threatened by three wolves in a cave. These wolves said, "Let's divide the meat now!"

受傷的獅王為了保全王國裡的動物, 擔心若此時不先屈就野狼們的要求, 動物王國裡的動物將被.........................

In order to save the animals in the kingdom, the injured lion king was worried that if he did not give in to the demands of the wolves said, the animals in the animal kingdom would be... ...

野狼裡有一隻野狼,本來是隻小野兔, 跟在獅王身邊很久, 希望能學習獅王的智慧與領導能力, 讓動物王國變得更美好。

There was a white wolf among the three wolves, who was originally a little rabbit. He has been following the lion king for a long time and was hoping to learn from the King's wisdom and leadership to make the animal kingdom become a better place.

但因為小兔子被野狼巫師下了咒, 就變成了野狼, 而這隻小野兔. 本性是不壞的. 只因為野狼巫師的魔咒太強大, 經不起誘惑的他, 也就迷失了自己, 最終外形也轉變成了野狼的形體。

However, the little rabbit was cursed by the wolf wizard, he turned into a white wolf. Nevertheless, this little rabbit was not bad in his nature. Due to the wolf wizard's spell was too powerful, the little rabbit could not withstand the temptation. Eventually he lost himself, and his appearance transformed into a white wolf.

那天, 受傷的獅王說：「說吧～你們想要怎麼分食呢？」

That day, the injured ion king said, "Tell me, how do you want to divide the meats?"

第一隻野狼說：「我覺得現在食物太少, 你的王國裡有那麼多動物, 就讓我們指揮他們去找出獵食來給我們吧! 如果找不到, 我們就只好吃了他們。」

The first devious wolf said: "I think now food is not enough here. There are so many animals in your kingdom, let me command them to find some prey for us. If they can't find the food, we will eat them." 

第二隻野狼說:「是啊,我們也不想傷害你的動物子民, 不過,總該給我們這群狼爺一些好處吧～  但因為你畢竟還是動物王國的國王,所以, 你先吃, 吃完我們狼爺們再吃,。」

The second sneaky wolf said: "We don't want to hurt your animal civilians, but you should give us, wolf pack, some benefits~ However, you are still the king of the animal kingdom, so you are allowed to eat first. As to us, the wolves, would eat after you have finished."

 第三隻野狼,也就是兔子變成的野狼說：「我以前在獅王身邊那麼久, 應該可以分到不少吧！」

The third wolf, who used to a rabbit then said: "I have been followed with the lion king for a long time, I think I could get a lot of the meats!"

自從三隻野狼開始露出野心想要掌管動物王國,王國裡便一日不不得安寧,

Since these wolves began to show their ambition to take over the animal kingdom, the kingdom was into chaos.

王國裡的動物開始互相猜忌互相推卸工作, 每隻動物變得毫無希望,看不到自己在動物王國生存的未來。

All animals in the kingdom began to be suspicious of each other and shirk their duties. Each animal became hopeless and unable to see their future in the animal kingdom.

若不聽從野狼的指令, 深怕有一天自己會變成野狼的食物或是被趕出動物王國, 所以只好一天過一天,

They were afraid that if they don't obey the instructions of those wolves, and then one day they would be killed by the wolves or kicked out of the animal kingdom, so they started to live without hope from day to day.

然而王國的食物越來越少了, 老鼠將軍也因為過於疲累,獵到的肉食一天比一天少, 有時甚至完全獵不到。

While tthe food in the kingdom was goning to out of the stock, there was a mouse, who was the general in the aninimal kingdom. He's always too tired to hunt the meats and their food was getting less and less day by day. Sometimes the General Mouse even couldn't find any food at all.

受傷的獅王怕王國的動物餓死或被野狼吃掉, 就四處尋找方法想想拯救這個危急的狀況。              

The injured lion king was worried that animals in the kingdom would starve to death or be eaten by the wolves, so he tried to look around for ways to save this urgent situation.

第一隻野狼就說：我來負責規劃新的策略讓獅王你們去鄰國獵食吧～ 其實第一隻野狼一直希望獅王可以讓他來管理動物王國。

The first devious wolf said: I can take charge for planning new strategies for lion king to hunt in neighboring countries. 

In fact, the first devious wolf always desires that he can dominate the animal kingdom.

而獅王之所以願意讓第一隻野狼來策劃, 也是因為獅王在前一次戰爭中,  輕信了先前他找來的大野狼，以為他可以替動物王國找到許多吃不完的獵物。

The reason why lion king was willing to let the first devious wolf help him which was lion pack mislead themselves into trusting an evil wolf in the previous war. Lion pack thought that evil wolf could find many endless prey for the animal kingdom.

但獅王卻不知道那隻大野狼只是想藉由動物王國裡的資源來替自己蓋房子建立自己的王國...........................................................

But the lion king didn’t know that the evil wolf just wanted to use the resources in the animal kingdom to build a house for him and establish his own kingdom............. ..................................................

而第一隻野狼因為先前受盡大野狼的屈辱, 早就在心裡發了誓,  總有一天要扳倒大野狼掌管動物王國.

Because the first devious wolf had suffered the humiliation from the evil wolf before, he had already sworn to his heart that one day he would overthrow the evil wolf and take over the animal kingdom.

當第一隻野狼發現自己一直無法立下功勞, 而那時的王國獵食的狀況一日比一日差。

When the first devious wolf found that he was unable to make any achievements, and the hunting situation in the kingdom at that time was getting worse day by day.

大野狼因為第一隻野狼直接與獅王秘密會議, 就開始不時的羞辱第一隻野狼對動物王國沒有貢獻.......................

Due to evil wolf's suspicious, while he saw the first devious wolf had a secret meeting with the lion king, He began to humiliate the first devious wolf from time to time for having no contributing to the animal kingdom............. .

從那時候開始,第一隻野狼再也不像從前那樣單純了, 開始心懷仇恨, 也就在大野狼被趕出動物王國後, 第一隻野狼就露出他的真面目.....................................

From that on, the first devious wolf was no longer as innocent as before, and began to harbor hatred. After the evil wolf was driven out of the animal kingdom, the first devious wolf revealed his true color..............................

在獅王受傷後, 第一隻大野狼開始認為自己也能擁有一個王國,  並開始籌劃著如何獲得獅王的肯定讓他能掌管動物王國。

After the lion king was injured, the first devious wolf began to think that he could own a kingdom, and started to plan how to get the lion king's appreciation so that he could take over the animal kingdom.

然而，在第二隻野狼發現第一隻野狼所獲得的肉食份量比他多時, 曾經向猴子侍衛長抱怨說:       

Nevertheless, when the second sneaky wolf discovered that the first devious wolf had received more meats than him, he once complained to the head of the monkey guard:

「第一隻野狼的之前學校的資歷好像造假,憑什麼可以分到比他多, 我偷偷去查他的背景, 第一隻野狼明明就不是像他所說的得到動物世界規定正統學校合格。」

"The qualifications of the first devious wolf's school seemed to be fake. Why could he divide more meats than me? I secretly checked his background, the first devious wolf clearly did not pass the orthodox school prescribed by the animal world as he said."

第二隻野狼因為大野狼的犯罪事跡敗露, 就開始像第一隻野狼示好。

After the evil wolf's criminal deeds were exposed during his power, the second sneaky wolf began to show favor to the first devious wolf.

希望第一隻野狼能幫他想出方法不被因為自己替大野狼掩飾罪行而拖累。

The second sneaky wolf asked the first devious wolf to help him figure out a way to not be dragged down by the responsibility of covering up his crimes for the evil wolf.

動物王國一直有傳聞說是因為第二隻野狼在大野狼無法為動物王國獵食到他自己所誇下的獵物份量，

There have been rumors in the animal kingdom that it was because the second sneaky wolf found evil wolf was getting greedy and unable to hunt a lot of the prey which he boasted he can get for the kingdom.

並且大野狼一次比一次貪心, 第二隻野狼擔心若事情東窗事發, 自己必定會被獵殺。

Moreover, the evil wolf became more and more greedy each time. The second sneaky wolf was worried that if the incident came to light, he would be hunted.

所以才私下將大野狼的罪行告訴了其他的獅子, 讓獅群來責備獅王的管理失誤並把獅王逼下王位.....................

He privately told the other lions about the evil wolf's crimes, so that the lions could blame the lion king for his management mistakes and force the lion king to step down from the throne............................................................................................ ................................................................. ..................To be continued, book purchse link as below.
