GORILLAS dosent drink water. WHY?

Gorillas do not drink water.̶1; They go on to explain thusly:\n\nGorillasR17; diet is based on fruits and stems, and these succulent foods provide neough water to sustain them. Gorillas also eat some invertebrates, such as ants and insects, but they have never been observed hunting or feeding on any other animals.

I guess its DIRT\nn as far as as drinking is concerned i think animals drink it if water has it\nwht say???

I think fishes get thirsty if there is not enough oxygen in the water.

maybe a little dehydration, jk, no it doesnt

NO they dont drink water as such. they get water from the food they eat. as we know we see ants going around some sweet drinks or some kinda sugar cubes. all these contains water and so ants dont need extra water. Not only ants but there are many organisms which do not drink water for their entire life.

The difference between any organism's freshwater and marine counterparts are in homoestatic fluid balance.\n\nA marine hydra has a problem with maintaining enough water in its body. The salt concentration outside the hydra leads to diffusion of water outward. The hydra has to actively either take in water or remove salt (it does both).\n\nFreshwater hydra have a problem with having too much water in its body. Because there is more salt in the hydra than outside, water diffuses into the hydra. To maintain balance, the freshwater hydra actively transports water out of its cells.\n\nMany of these same issues can be said of freshwater fish and ocean fish, too.

i noticed that too!!!! like by the hundreds, i think either the water drifts them out, or they can't breath under the water and the mud so they get out!

Drink less water.  You're waterlogged.

As stated in the "omit" version of this question...\n\nKangaroo rats do urinate, as it is necessary in order to remove nitrates from the body. But they conserve water as a result of being adapted to desert climates, where water is scarce. Thus urine is excreted, but is very concentrated, containing only enough water so that it is able to drain out, thus keeping the body from dehydrating.

Yes; they need to, in order to maintain their internal ion/water balance (osmoregulation). Marine fish have to drink constantly to avoid dehydration; they have special cells in their gills to excrete the excess chloride.\nFreshwater fish face the opposite problem: their bodies tend to let water in and their internal ionic concentrations tend to become diluted. Therefore they drink water, retain the ions and afterwards excrete large volumes of very diluted urine. And they also have special cells in their gills for osmoregulation.

Because it stores water in  its 'hump'...therefore it doesn't need to drink very often.

Birds and fowl lack smooth muscles in their throats to pull food and water down to their stomach.  Therefore they have to lift up their heads and let it fall.  This is why you can't bring a canary in outer space because it would starve/dehydrate.

I can show you a website that's a little technical, but should help.\n\nThe basic answer is, not really.  Most lizards are designed not to waste water, so they don't "pee" in the same sense a dog or a cat does.

Guppies don't really hear... And if they did, it wouldn't be by their gills. They use their gills to breathe. Instead, they follow vibrations. I'm not quite sure how, but I think they have a sense organ that detects vibrations in the water.
