The cetacean species most likely to be encountered near the Lunskoye and PA Fields in summer-autumn are western gray whales, minke whales, killer whales, harbour porpoise, and common dolphin.Среди китообразных, которые наиболее вероятно могут быть обнаружены возле Лунского и Пильтун-Астохского месторождений в летне-осенний период, серые киты, малые полосатики, косатки, обыкновенные морские свиньи и обыкновенные дельфины.© «Сахалин Энерджи» 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 11.10.2011© Sakhalin Energy 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 11.10.2011
Still, a man isn't like a whale or a porpoise, that takes the, air in his nostrils, and never knows whether it is a southeaster or a northwester that he feeds upon.Но человек не кит и не дельфин, которые хватают ноздрями воздух и не знают, зюйд-ост это или норд-ост.Cooper, James Fenimore / The Pilot: A Tale of the SeaКупер, Джеймс Фенимор / ЛоцманЛоцманКупер, Джеймс Фенимор© "Детское государственное издательство", 1959The Pilot: A Tale of the SeaCooper, James Fenimore© 2005 Adamant Media Corporation
The harbour porpoise is a coastal marine mammal that tends to stay within a few kilometres from shore, so no impact on harbour porpoises is predicted.Обыкновенная морская свинья - прибрежный вид - старается держаться в пределах нескольких километров от берега, так что воздействие на нее, как прогнозируется, будет отсутствовать.© «Сахалин Энерджи» 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 30.09.2011© Sakhalin Energy 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 30.09.2011
These measures (course change) were applied only once with regard to Dall's porpoise (see above).Такие меры (изменение курса) в отношении белокрылой морской свиньи были применены только однажды (см. выше).© «Сахалин Энерджи» 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 10/22/2011© Sakhalin Energy 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 10/22/2011
Among cetaceans, the maximum frequency of occurrence is noted for the harbor porpoise (184 observations).Среди китообразных, максимальная частота случаев наблюдений приходится за обыкновенную морскую свинью (184 наблюдения).© «Сахалин Энерджи» 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 10/22/2011© Sakhalin Energy 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 10/22/2011
In 1993, Dall's porpoises were seen singly and in small groups (3 to 5 animals) between Terpeniie Bay and Aniva Bay.В 1993г. белокрылые морские свиньи были обнаружены поодиночке и небольшими группами по 3 - 5 животных между заливами Терпения и Анива.© «Сахалин Энерджи» 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 21.09.2011© Sakhalin Energy 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 21.09.2011
Then far, away over the blue he caught sight of three long, dark shapes like hurrying fish that drove one after the other, as porpoises follow one another in the water.А потом в синей дали он увидел три темных продолговатых, похожих на рыб силуэта — словно гнались друг за другом резвившиеся дельфины.Wells, Herbert George / The war in the airУэллс, Герберт / Война в воздухеВойна в воздухеУэллс, Герберт© Издательство "Правда", 1964The war in the airWells, Herbert George© the Literary Executors of the Estate of H. G. Wells
0.5 km safety distance for other whales, dolphins and porpoises;0,5 км - безопасная дистанция для остальных китов, дельфинов и морских свиней;© «Сахалин Энерджи» 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 10/22/2011© Sakhalin Energy 2006www.sakhalinenergy.com 10/22/2011
Then the porpoises lined up and sped out to sea, leaving a flaming path behind them that flickered and glowed, and then died slowly, like a glowing branch laid across the bay.Вскоре и дельфины потянулись цепочкой в открытое море, оставляя за собой огненную дорожку, которая искрилась и сверкала и наконец медленно гасла, будто тлеющая ветка, брошенная в залив.Durrell, Gerald / My family and other animalsДаррелл, Джеральд / Моя семья и другие звериМоя семья и другие звериДаррелл, Джеральд© Издательство "Мир", 1971My family and other animalsDurrell, Gerald© Gerald M.

Strangely enough, we would never have seen the porpoises, the fireflies, and the phosphorescence acting together if it had not been for Mother's bathing-costume.Но все‑таки нам бы никогда не удалось увидеть одновременно и дельфинов, и светлячков, и фосфоресценцию, если бы не мамин купальный костюм.Durrell, Gerald / My family and other animalsДаррелл, Джеральд / Моя семья и другие звериМоя семья и другие звериДаррелл, Джеральд© Издательство "Мир", 1971My family and other animalsDurrell, Gerald© Gerald M.
