Story Transcript:
Sk: Miro stál na okraji lesa v Tatrách.
En: Miro stood at the edge of the forest in the Tatras.
Sk: Vietor mu chladne svišťal okolo uší, zatiaľ čo sa pozeral na farby jesene rozlievajúce sa po krajine.
En: The wind whistled coldly around his ears as he looked at the autumn colors spreading across the landscape.
Sk: Vedľa neho Zuzana listovala v poznámkach, spokojná s ich plánom na dnešný deň.
En: Next to him, Zuzana flipped through her notes, satisfied with their plan for the day.
Sk: Erik, mladý a plný elánu, kládol zvedavé otázky o medveďoch, ktoré mali nasledovať.
En: Erik, young and full of vigor, was asking curious questions about the bears they were to follow.
Sk: „To je on,“ povedal Erik ukážuc prstom na mapu.
En: "That's him," said Erik, pointing at the map.
Sk: „Medveď Ľubo sa pohybuje v tejto oblasti.
En: "Bear Ľubo moves in this area."
Sk: “ Jeho nadšenie bolo hmatateľné.
En: His excitement was palpable.
Sk: Miro však pocítil ťažobu na ramenách, ako keď nosil príliš veľa vybavenia sám.
En: Miro, however, felt a weight on his shoulders, like when he carried too much equipment by himself.
Sk: Musel zozbierať všetky údaje.
En: He needed to gather all the data.
Sk: Dostať dôkazy, že ich práca má zmysel.
En: Get evidence that their work was meaningful.
Sk: Cítil zodpovednosť.
En: He felt responsible.
Sk: Aj keď pochyboval, Zuzana ho vždy povzbudzovala.
En: Even when he doubted, Zuzana always encouraged him.
Sk: „Musíme byť opatrní.
En: "We have to be careful.
Sk: V takom počasí je ľahké stratiť cestu,“ upozornila Zuzana.
En: In this kind of weather, it's easy to lose our way," warned Zuzana.
Sk: Vedela, že podmienky nie sú ideálne.
En: She knew the conditions were not ideal.
Sk: Nepredvídané lejaky zadychčovali les a sťažovali ich výskum.
En: Unforeseen downpours made the forest breathe heavily and complicated their research.
Sk: Ale Miro mal plán.
En: But Miro had a plan.
Sk: „Pôjdeme hlbšie do lesa.
En: "We’ll go deeper into the forest.
Sk: Možno ho predbehneme a nájdeme predtým, ako sa prídu lovci,“ rozhodol Miro.
En: Maybe we can get ahead of him and find him before the hunters do," Miro decided.
Sk: Nebolo to jednoduché rozhodnutie.
En: It wasn't an easy decision.
Sk: Vedel o rizikách, ale taktiež cítil túžbu chrániť zvieratá.
En: He was aware of the risks but also felt the desire to protect the animals.
Sk: Ich výprava sa začala.
En: Their expedition began.
Sk: Miro viedol tím cez husté borovice, pričom sa snažil uchovať pokoj.
En: Miro led the team through thick pines, trying to remain calm.
Sk: Zrazu sa zastavili.
En: Suddenly, they stopped.
Sk: Zuzana prešla prstami po čerstvých stopách.
En: Zuzana traced fresh tracks with her fingers.
Sk: „Tu je,“ povedala s úsmevom.
En: "Here it is," she said with a smile.
Sk: Erik vyzeral fascinovaný.
En: Erik looked fascinated.
Sk: Ale náhle zvuky, vzdialené výstrely, donútili srdcia všetkých rozbúšiť zrýchleným tempom.
En: But sudden sounds, distant gunshots, made all their hearts race.
Sk: Miro sa musel rozhodnúť.
En: Miro had to decide.
Sk: Pokračujeme ďalej, alebo sa chránime?
En: Do we go further, or do we protect ourselves?
Sk: "Musí
