How Animals
Take Their Baths

Human beings pay a good deal of
attention to washing. but animals
under natural conditions seldom
wash in the sense in which we
understand the verb. The con-
tempory press has come to the con-
clusion that, broadly speaking. the
only creatures which wash them
selves in water are the birds, and
many Of them-most, in fact are
absolute enthusiasts in the prac-
tice, as any one can see. even in
towns, in the case of the sparrow.
Some birds, however, much pre-
fer showerbath to going into
water and splashing 1t over them
selves; pigeons love a bath in the
rain. and larks and cockatoos
seem only to battle in this way. 1t
might be suggested that the high
temperature of birds. which about
equals feverheat in man, accounts
for this love of washing in water.
The birds who do not battle gen.
orally make up for it by busting
themselves. Everybody who keeps
poultry knows, or ought to know.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1919-08-09

that one Of the necessaries Of fowl
life is the dust bath, and the Gus
tom Of using dust instead of water
extends 10 all the birds Of the game
and poultry family; while some few
employ both dust and water, like
the common sparrow.
Reptiles do not wash at all. but
merely soak; ana. in the case of
beasts. deliberate washing with wa
ter seems to occur only with ele-
plants. Females Of the African
elephant have been seen to daub
their calves with mud and then
wash it off-soaping and sluicing
them. in fact. Most naked-skinned
animals like to wallow, at any rate
in hot weather, and SO do many
which are well furred: such bath
ing is enjoyed not only by rhinocer-
oses and buffaloes, but, as everyone
knows. by dogs. and even by bears
and by tigers.
But wallowing is not washing,
and when performed in mud leaves
the wallower dirtier than before.
