"We became friends," Cano says.

Then Cano brought the yeast back to life.

后来，卡诺让这些酵母复活了。

"I am the keeper of the family jewels," Cano says.

我是这个珍宝家族的看护者，卡诺说。

Lambert and Cano had toyed with the idea for 12 years.

十二年来，无论兰伯特还是卡诺，两人都没有认真考虑过这个点子。

"Altruism's great, but it's not that great," Cano says.

“利他主义很伟大，但我不是那么伟大的人”，卡诺说。

Mr Cano had led the group since its founder died of a heart attack in 2008.

阿索方在游击队创始人2008年死于心脏病后，一直领导这支队伍。

Many security analysts doubted that Mr Cano could hold the group together.

He told me the story of how Cano revived the yeast, how it resembled brewer's yeast.

他告诉我卡诺怎样唤醒这些酵母的故事，以及它与酿酒者所用的酵母是如何相似。

In April 1995, during his amber-cracking spree, Cano made another important discovery.

1995年春，正当卡诺兴高采烈的把各种琥珀弄碎时，他找到了另外一个重要的发现。

Mr Cano, once a middle-class anthropology(4) student, spent 33 years as a guerrilla(5).

阿方索卡诺，出身中产阶级，学生时代曾攻读人类学，后加入游击队33年。

Cano got his master's and went on to earn a PhD in microbiology at the University of Montana.

卡诺在那里取得硕士学位，并在蒙大拿大学拿到了微生物学博士。

"We did find two or three microorganisms that produced some new chemical compounds," Cano says.

“我们找到了两到三种微生物，可以用他们制作一些新的化合物”，卡诺说。

"We called it Jurassic Amber Ale or T-Rex Lager or something, and it was pretty good," Cano says.

“我们把它称作侏罗纪琥珀麦芽酒，或是食肉恐龙啤酒，等等诸如此类的名字，而且它确实相当不错”，卡诺表示。

It was dead, of course, but Cano theorized that microorganisms in the resin might simply be dormant.

当然，这支蜜蜂已经死掉了。但卡诺认为，树脂中的微生物仅仅只是休眠了。

Cano went back to his lab and pursued other research, like testing petroleum-degrading bacteria in sand dunes.

卡诺只得回到实验室继续其他研究，比如测试沙丘中的石油降解细菌。

Now, just when it seemed his babies would be forgotten, Cano has found a way to share them with the world.

如今，就在他的小宝宝们将要被遗忘时，卡诺才找到一种方法，让全世界分享他的发现。

His parents would eventually follow him to the US, but for a few years Cano was on his own in a strange new country.

双亲最终也跟随他来到美国，但在最终几年里，卡诺只能独自呆在这个陌生的新国家里。

Cano identified it as a bacterial spore related to the modern Bacillus sphaericus, which is used to kill mosquito larvae.

卡诺确认它是一种细菌孢子，与现代的球形芽孢杆菌有亲缘关系，后者往往被用于杀死蚊子的幼虫。

As the cofounder, part-owner, and chief scientific officer of Ambergene, Cano stood to earn a hefty chunk of any windfall that might result.

作为Ambergene公司的创始人、部分所有者以及首席科学家，卡诺可以赚取一笔丰厚的意外之财，这是必然的结果。

After publishing the results of his experiment in Science, Cano found himself the center of national attention from scientists and eventually the media.

在《科学》上发表自己的成果之后，卡诺发现他成了科学家和媒体瞩目的中心。

But for Fossil Fuels' brew, Cano prefers to create new colonies that are as close as possible to the original generation he reawakened from the chunk of amber.

不过，为了保证“化石酿造”的品质，卡诺愿意创造新的群落，让它们尽可能接近从琥珀中唤醒的菌株。

Two years later, however, Cano actually did manage to pull off an astonishing first-he brought back to life something that had been trapped in amber for more than 25 million years.

然而，短短两年后，卡诺却设法取得了令人惊讶的成就——它唤醒了唤醒了在琥珀中沉睡超过两千五百万年的生物。

They appear to be flawlessly round, ranging in size from just a few centimeters to over 6.6 feet in diameter, and are found all over the Diquis Delta and Isla de Cano in Costa Rica.

在哥斯达黎加的 迪奎斯三角洲和卡诺岛发现的无数个直径从几厘米到6.6英尺的完美的石球。
