It is somewhat evident that some animals have a basic understanding, such as is displayed by the book White Fang by Jack London. A dog got curious nearing the warm light. When he went to sniff it, an unpleasnt surprise awaited him as his nose recieved an almost nip of sensation. He never got too close to the campfire again. It is the act of action/reaction in the brain that tells my dog "Hey, I get punished every time I piss on the carpet! How wierd!!"
