A white sheep named Prickles that ran away from an Australian farm during the 2013 bush fires recently returned home.

在2013年的一场丛林大火中,一只名为“刺毛”的白色绵羊从澳大利亚的一个农场逃走,最近这只绵羊回到了家中。

According to farmer Alice Gray, Prickles was only a lamb when she ran away.

据羊农艾丽斯·格雷描述,刺毛逃跑时还是一只小羊羔。

The bush fires that hit the area back then destroyed a large part of her family's massive property.

当时该地区发生的丛林大火摧毁了她家大量的财产。

They thought Prickles had died in the fire.

他们以为刺毛死在了那场大火中。

But instead, the young sheep escaped into a 200-acre forest near the farm.

但是没想到,这只小羊却逃到了农场附近一片200英亩的森林里。

Once the fires were over, the family had to fix the damage done to the farm as it was such a large property.

大火被扑灭后,由于家产众多,这家人不得不即刻对大火给农场造成的破坏进行修复。

This included rebuilding about 50 kilometers of fencing.

他们把一条约50公里长的围栏也进行了重建。

It was this huge fencing that prevented Prickles from finding her way back.

正是这条巨大的围栏阻止了刺毛找到回家的路。

Over the years, the family spotted her a few times.

多年来,这家人发现过她好几次。

They even recorded her with cameras installed to monitor deer activity.

他们为监控鹿的活动而安装的摄像机甚至给她录了像。

But while they knew Prickles was alive, they couldn't find her and never expected her to return by herself.

但是,尽管他们知道刺毛还活着,但依旧找不到她,也从未想过她竟然会自己回来。

Seven years later, they were proven wrong.

七年后,事实证明他们的想法是错误的。
