（单词翻译）

 So a leopard1 has walked along these dunes2? Where is the leopard from then?

Well, they come from the mountainside. I’m so scared when the farmers can see them, they can shoot them because they eat their lambs.
Yes, a leopard is not really the best friend of a farmer.
No, a leopard is not really the best friend of a farmer.
It’s a reminder3 that you are walk in Africa, *…
Yeah.
When there are leopard prints in the sand dunes.
Heading back the shoreline, it’s time to press on to the end of the beach. This giant sweep of sand was given the name * by the Dutch, literally4, bay of meat. They arrived here a century after the Portuguese5 to replenish6 supplies and it would seem, acquire fresh meet. 
Today, the meet on offer tends to come from the sea. The rocks at low tide are the hunting ground for the rare African oystercatcher, and their human counterparts. 160, 000 years after man came first hunting here, people on this coastline are still catching8 shellfish.
Hi!
Hi! 
That looks like really hard work!
Yeah, it is.
Are there many women that do oyster7 catching?
It’s only me and two other women, but they don’t go in the water like me.
Can I have a look at your haul today?
Yeah.
What have you got?
That’s a large. That’s a small. 
Yeah.
And that’s a medium.
So you got three there. Three for one!
Yes.
That’s good for you!
Yes, that’s good.
Now, do you like oysters9?
No, I don’t eat them.
No, no, no.
As I head towards my final viewpoint, it’s incredible to think of the different eras that have come and gone along this walk. It’s been a wander through the making of South Africa’s rainbow nation.
