21.10.18.월 Fostering Rescue Animals 유기 동물 임시보호 _ 입이 트이는 영어

제니쌤: Yeah. It really is a sad reality. So these, I guess, homeless animals, they need shelters and they need loving family. Someone that's more than willing to accept them into the families. But, you know, sometimes you may not find someone who is willing to take him in. So, often you will have familites that are willing to foster, give them foster car, 잠시 동안 이죠, for a temporary time. they will take care of the animal.

[Speaking] Talk about fostering rescue animals.

Temporary foster care is one of many ways to help rescue animals.	또한 반려동물을 원하지만, 여전히 결정하지 못하는 사람들이 동물에 대하여 알 수 있는 좋은 방법이다.
It refers to looking after abandoned animals at home for a while until they are adopted for good.	버림받은 동물이 영구적으로 입양될 때까지 집에서 잠시동안 돌보는 것을 의미한다.
Only a limited number of animals can be held in animal shelters, so animals past the deadline for adoption have to be put down.	동물보호소에서는 제한된 개체수만 수용할 수 있어서 입양될 수 있는 기한이 지난 동물들은 안락사된다.
But if a temporary caretaker looks after an animal until it's adopted, it can avoid being euthanized	임시보호하는 분이 입양될 때까지 돌봐주면 안락사를 피할 수 있다.
Animal lovers who can can't reliably keep pets for an extended period can help abandon animals through foster care.	동물을 사랑하지만 오랫동안 확실히 반려동물을 지키지 못하는 사람들은 임시보호를 통해서 유기 동물들을 도울 수 있다.
It's also a good way for people to get to know about animals when they want a pet but it are still on the fence about it.	또한 반려동물을 원하지만, 여전히 결정하지 못하는 사람들이 동물에 대하여 알 수 있는 좋은 방법이다.
