Yes, protists can be found in drinking water, especially in untreated or poorly treated sources. Many protists, such as amoebas and algae, are naturally occurring microorganisms in aquatic environments. While most drinking water treatment processes eliminate harmful pathogens, some protists may still survive if water is not properly filtered or treated. Regular monitoring and treatment are essential to ensure water safety.
