1. About the water drinkers

Due to drought and bushfires, tree-dwelling animals are at great risk of dehydration and predation as they go in search of water. Supplementary water provided by arboreal water drinkers, ie water troughs in the trees (TREE TROFFS®), has been demonstrated to provide safe support to wildlife including Koalas, Gliders, lizards and birds.
