what are three ways for an animal to lose water?
peeing
liquid diraheea
contracting chlorea
Beside urinating, diarrhea and vomiting, sweating would be the another cause of water loss (for those animals that sweat). Cholera would cause some of these.
I hope this helps a little more.

There are three primary ways for an animal to lose water:
1. Evaporation: Animals lose water through evaporation from the surface of their body, mainly through the skin and respiratory system. This process occurs when the animal's body temperature increases, causing moisture to evaporate as vapor into the surrounding environment.
2. Urination: Animals eliminate excess water through the process of urination. By filtering out waste products and excess fluid from the bloodstream, the kidneys produce urine, which is then expelled from the body through the urinary system.
3. Respiration: During respiration, animals lose water through exhalation. When animals breathe, water vapor is expelled from their bodies along with carbon dioxide. This water loss is more significant in animals that live in dry or arid environments or engage in high-intensity physical activity.
To answer this question, I referred to my knowledge on animal physiology. Understanding the different mechanisms through which animals lose water helps us appreciate the adaptations they have developed to conserve water in different environments.
