 文本：

It's home to a living fossil, a relict, barely changed for over 100 million years. The tuatara. And half the world's population survive on this one island refuge. During the reign1 of the dinosaurs2, the ancestors of the tuatara were everywhere. They survived the cataclysm3 that killed off the dinosaurs, but then couldn't compete with the mammals and died out.
