They instinctively seek out water. Many animals in arid areas have a sense of smell that can detect minor traces of water vapor. Where surface water is only seasonal, some hooved animals will pound the ground at a damp location to draw up a pool of water. Other animals have adapted to get most or all of their water from their food.
