Echidnas drink water by using their long, sticky tongues to lap it up. They typically find water in shallow pools or puddles, where they can extend their tongues to collect water efficiently. Unlike many other animals, echidnas do not have a traditional drinking method; instead, they rely on their specialized tongue to absorb moisture. This behavior helps them stay hydrated in their often arid habitats.
