Two beavers released into the wild earlier this year are staying together. Outdoor cameras recently filmed the two animals grooming each other. This grooming shows that the pair is forming a close bond.
released into the wild= 「released into...」為分詞片語，修飾前面的 beavers，表示「被釋放到野外」。grooming each other= 「grooming」指動物互相梳理毛髮的行為，象徵建立親密關係。
Beavers usually live in small family groups and stay with one partner for life. Conservationists hope this new pair will settle in the area and raise young. This could help increase the beaver population in the wild.
for life= 「for life」意為「終生、一輩子」，表示一輩子保持單一伴侶。settle in= 「settle in」表示在新環境安頓下來並定居。
The animals were released in February to help restore natural rivers and wetlands. When beavers build dams and canals, they keep water in the land for longer. This work creates new homes and supports many other wild animals.
keep water in the land for longer= 說明河狸築壩與水渠能保留水分，使水在土地中停留更長時間。
