I just went to get a small pack of Zooper Doopers. Forgot something though. Disposable container.
Again the problem of providing wildlife water with an invasive population of dickheads
I should have bought some aluminium roasting pans because the one wildlife water dispenser that hasn’t been stolen or yeeted probably won’t meet demand.
I planned to freeze big chunks of ice to weigh down the light disposable container/s (it would have to be something I didn’t value), keep them cool, and slowly replenish water as it got drunk down. As well as something to help any smaller animals get back out so they don’t drown.
But it would either have to be placed behind a fence limiting which animals could access it, or be left out where braindead dickheads can pour the water out or take the whole thing. I have the perfect spot for a birdbath but it would only be stolen or used to smash stuff…
I fucking hate people man
