No matter what animal you're speaking about, "learned behaviors" are behaviors animals begin doing after seeing another animal doing it successfully. Some animals can not do this, like salamanders, snakes, lizards, etc.

Monkeys are exceptional at picking up learned behaviors. For example, one monkey becomes frustrated trying to chew open hard-shelled nuts. Out of frustration, this monkey hits the nut with a rock, and it bursts open. Another monkey was watching this, and seeing the first monkey's success, repeats the behavior with equal success. Soon, all the monkeys are using rocks, instead of their teeth, to break open hard-shelled seeds.
