Just because tigers, monkeys, and birds don't roll out of bed, jump in the shower, and turn on the tap, doesn't mean they don't have serious and involved ways to get clean.
Several species of birds and mammals exhibit the behavior but—while functionally very similar—animal bathing often takes a radically different form.

Perhaps the most commonly witnessed animal bathing are birds. They need to bathe regularly to maintain the quality and health of their feathers.

The practice isn't limited to garden birds, either. All wild birds—even those who spend lots of time in the water—need to regularly clean and groom their feathers.

On the dry savannas of Africa, dust baths are very common. The baths also help animals cool off after exercise. Increasingly arid climates and encroaching livestock have threatened zebra populations across Africa.
Elephants

This African elephant uses its trunk to take a dust bath. Elephants require frequent baths to protect their skin from sun, insects, and moisture loss.

Typically, however, elephants do not rely on dust baths alone. After submerging themselves or using their trunks to spray water across their bodies, the dust or mud bath begins. This allows the dirt or mud to stick, creating a protective layer that lasts throughout the day.

Rhinoceros, too, make frequent use of mud baths to cool off and protect their skin from the sun and insects.
Animals are humans' best friends. If you have some "good friends" at home, like dogs or cats, you will be responsible for bathing them regularly to prevent them from making a mess.
