Which animal never drinks water in its entire life? ​

Answer 1

• Kangaroo rats represent an integral part of desert life.
• Sometimes, other species eat them for the water in their bodies.
• The rats can run very fast, covering 6 metres in one second, thanks to their long strong legs and the robust tail that resemble those of the kangaroo so they are labelled the kangaroo rats.
• They grow in length to about 38 cm, including a tail that is 20 cm long.
