偷偷拿走別人地盤上的東西
這一支直接就是核心畫面；另外兩個成員都是從那個圍籬邊的身影借過去的。

盜獵者；偷獵、盜採的人
核心畫面
Someone slipping onto ground that belongs to other people and leaving with something wild that was never theirs to take. It happens at night, away from the path, and the whole point is not to be seen.

可以想成一個人翻過別人的圍籬，從裡面帶走一樣本來不屬於他的野生的東西。時間多半是晚上，路線避開大路，整件事的重點就是不要被看見。那隻動物不是誰種出來、養出來的，可是那塊地是別人的，法律也是別人訂的，而他從兩者旁邊走了過去。把這個站在圍籬邊的身影記住，這個字在別處的用法多半都能從這裡接下去。From the word’s history
Wiktionary gives poacher as poach + -er, the person who does the poaching. The same -er ending also produces the kitchen sense, from a completely different verb poach.
Wiktionary 記載 poacher 由 poach 加 -er 構成，也就是「做這件事的人」。同一個 -er 字尾也造出了廚房裡那個 poacher，只是前面那個 poach 是另一個完全不同的動詞。

廚房裡的煮蛋器
這一支跟圍籬、獵物完全無關，硬要接回核心畫面會是牽強的；它走的是另一條路。
