盤點世界八大最糟糕工作：嗅他人腋窩居首

Whale snot collector

收集鯨魚的鼻涕

“There she blows” may be the traditional cry for whale spotters but marine biologist Karina Acevedo-Whitehouse gives it a new meaning.

She flies a remote-controlled helicopter fitted with a culture dish through the billows of mucus whales eject from their blowhole, above, then analyses it for viruses and bacteria.

Karina, from the Zoological Society of London, says: “It can be quite dangerous.”

很多看到鯨魚的人一般會驚叫：“它在那噴氣”。不過，倫敦動物學(xué)會的海洋生物學(xué)家卡琳娜?阿塞韋多?懷特豪斯給了它新的含義。

她操縱著一架裝載有培養(yǎng)皿的遙控直升機(jī)，在鯨魚從其噴水孔噴出的翻滾的粘液中穿梭搜集樣本，然后用來分析病毒和細(xì)菌。

卡琳娜說：“這有時候相當(dāng)危險?！?/p>

那個小機(jī)器在干什么？

And now for the best jobs...
