Reply to comment by Bubbagumpredditor in TIL Mountain Gorillas almost never drink water. They get their hydration from from their plant diet and morning dew. Despite living in rainforests, they also tend to dislike rain and try to not get wet when crossing a stream. They have never been observed drinking water in the wild before 2013 by Ainsley-Sorsby

Since the 60's mountain Gorillas are very closely monitored and observed for research and conservation purposes. If they've rarely been observed do it it, its safe to conclude it rarely happens.
