Preventing Animals from Drowning In Your Pond

By Hope Mason

If you live in a rural area that is populated by a lot of small wild animals then avoid using the kind of pond liner that is like a plastic sheet. This type of liner is placed over a hole in the ground that you have dug yourself. The result is often a slippery slope into the pond and animals drown. To avoid the problem of finding dead animals in your pond (or dead children if you live in an area with a lot of toddlers) invest in a prefabricated tub that has a stair like structure so the creature can hoist itself out.
