People on social media have been urging the public to always ensure they keep a bowl of water outside in their gardens this summer.
Temperatures have been far higher than average recently for this time of year, and while it's great news for sunbathers, the heat doesn't come without its risks.
This is especially true for wildlife that live in our communities, as the sweltering heat means water is often harder to access, leading to animals and insects dying more frequently.
