Woman Sets Up a Water Fountain for Animals in Her Backyard, Shares Footage of the Visitors

Animals can struggle to find a water source during scorching summer heat, especially in dry and desert-like areas. Fortunately, there are people like San Diego County resident Jennifer George who are ready to help them.

Back in 2019, George spotted several coyote pups that looked in need of refreshment, so she decided to give them water. After seeing how much the wild animals appreciated the gesture, she decided not to stop there.

George set up a solar water fountain in her backyard, which soon became a gathering place for all sorts of animals. Besides the coyotes, who return from time to time, the likes of quails, vultures, weasels, bobcats, and even snakes regularly stop by to get a drink.

The popularity of the solar water fountain prompted George to set up a hidden camera nearby. She later started sharing the most interesting footage on TikTok.

The videos posted on her profile @animalthirsttrap show all sorts of visitors coming by to get some water. Occasionally, different species visit at the same time, but they are mostly respectful of each other, appreciating the opportunity to quench their thirst.  Check out some of these interesting clips below.
