Government issued fursuiting advice, thanks to NTES (NT's State Emergency Service).

It's got character backstory, how the suiter should behave in public, and safety measures the suiter and handler should take to keep the suiter and the public safe pfes.nt.gov.au/sites/default/f

Backstory on Paddy ended up at the NTES. Platypuses aren't native to NT, so he hatched in NSW and got swept away during flood waters. He then watched enthusiastic SES workers esthetically help during a natural disaster and decided he wanted to join the SES/NTES. He then migrated across Australia, via South Australia then caught the Ghaun (a train) to Darwin where he joined the NTES.

After seeing how much people love him, he's now a public face of the NTES.Rules about how the suiter should act while in suit.

The suiter must be in suit and discuss with their handler hand signals prior to being in public. They also cannot remove any part of the suit in public. The handler also needs to keep the suiter safe from the public, and to prevent them from trampling children.

The suiter must be nonverbal, and only communicate with the public using gestures such as Hugs, High fives, throwing kisses, waves, fist bumps and thumbs up.Personal Health.

The suiter needs to be physically and medically fit to wear the suit.

The suit wearing duration should be dependent of the weather and the suiter's comfort levels.  20 to 30 minutes is when the weather is cooler (<25°C), or 10 to 30 minutes when it's hot (> 25°C).

The suiter should also eat a balanced meal before the event. The suiter can eat something small mid event while outside the suit, and it's suggested that the suiter drinks plenty of liquid including carbohydrate based sports drinks while outside of public viewing.The symptoms of heat exhaustion and how to treat it
