What would be helpful for survival in areas with temperatures just below the boiling point?

I have a planet where the equator temperatures are near boiling point (90ËšC or 194ËšF) during the "summer". What qualities would an animal need in order to survive these kinds of temperatures to conserve water? A couple things to qualify:

1. The animal is slightly larger than a coyote.
2. It is naturally nocturnal and only moves outside at night, where the temperature is closer to 65 C (150 F).
3. The animal must find and use liquid water for hydration, no pulling water vapor out of the atmosphere.
4. Assume there are some plants much like cacti, and one could harvest water from it.
