This is a device that can be operated by animals. It can provides clean and safe water. In the old practice, livestock drink in the surface of a pond or any source of water. However, it is dirty water that can harm the animals. How was this dirty? Animals could not be controlled when they dispose their waste. The manure, their pee can be exposed in the water. Bacteria have been developed and contaminate the water, which will be taken by the animals. It may result in their degeneration, and low quality meat will surface.
This device is easy to operate that your livestock will learn. It is operated like the traditional pump. Though with this, it is the animal using its nose will push the lever, and water pumps out. It is installed in a platform, which is set up perpendicularly to the ground. You can have this installed in an area with a water source that is clean. One example is a water-well. Animals have the instinct to find water when they get thirsty, when they are familiar with how the device works, they will do this as they wish and water is provided.
