Dung beetles primarily obtain water from the dung they consume, as the feces contain moisture. Additionally, they can absorb water directly from the soil or through dew on grass and plants. Some species have also been observed drinking from water sources when available. Their ability to derive moisture from various sources helps them thrive in diverse environments.
