As for animals, I think domestic animals are different to wild. Looks at how deer drink. They are able to drink for minutes. From what i see in documentaries also canine animals are able to drink a lot. Plus you have to consider whether the mammal has passive / active regulation.
My whole point with this is that having ability to choose WHEN we drink makes us forget the natural instincts once we had.

Wild animals don't of course drink all the time unless they live very near of the water source.
I don't think humans have forgot natural instinct to drink. Try getting thirsty sometimes; I guarantee you will find your instinct to drink quite easily. During summer army exercises I surely found mine. Although I have been boyscout too (we did hang out with girlscouts FYI, no gay stuff), but for obvious reasons it wasn't as intense, as we were kids.
If you think that you have lost instinct to drink, you just haven't got thirsty.
