Water for Big Horn Sheep

 

Wildlife Guzzlers and Water Troughs for Bighorn Sheep Habitat

Bighorn sheep require dependable water sources, especially in arid mountain and desert environments. An adult bighorn sheep typically drinks 4–8 liters of water per day, depending on temperature and forage.

Providing a dependable water source helps support herd health, improve habitat conditions, and encourage long-term population stability. Reliable access to water is a critical component of effective wildlife management, especially in regions where drought and changing conditions impact natural availability.

The 300-gallon Dome-Top guzzler can provide water deer, upland birds, and small animals. Heavy-duty sidewall ribs allow for installation either in-ground or above-ground. The ramp is a gentle 28 degrees to give upland bird and small animals easy access and escape. The DT-300 is somewhat comparable to the Low-Profile 210 guzzler but has a 300 gallons of storage capacity and a larger drinking area for animals with larger horns.

Note, the DT-300 drinking area deck height is 28”. If you are installing the guzzler for above-ground use, the optimum height for deer is 16-20”. As such, you may want to either bury the guzzler about 6”-10” or mound earth around the guzzler to get the deck height to the 16”-20” height range. As an option, take a look at the Low-Pro guzzler which has a deck height of 16”.
