In some scenarios, it is compulsory for an animal to habituate in their enivironment in order to survive:
Example:
Some Crabs flee at the sight of shadows ( whether they're clouds or Birds of Prey). And so, unless the crab habituates to the shadows it will not be able to feed while being uninterrupted. There will always be the unfortunate event when the shadow is a actually a bird of prey and the crab gets injured; however it needed to habituate to find and take in the food in order to survive.
Any and all animals go through habituation-- including humans. It is a very simple type of learning that allows for maximum fitness by stripping away "unnecessary" stimuli. For an example and for more information, see the related question below.
Reactions to internal and external stimuli are called responses. For an example, a cheetah responds to the need for food by chasing a gazelle, The gazelle responds by running away.

Repeated exposure, and when the non-threatening stimulus becomes part of the environment.
habituation
The process in which an animal stops responding to a repeated stimulus is called habituation. Broadly defined, stimulus results in a reaction.
Habituation is defined as becoming or making someone become accustomed to something. Classical conditioning is using habituation to pair two stimuli, such as in the famous case of Pavlov's dog, wherein the sound of a bell and meal time were associated.

The position of the eyes on an animal is useful depending on the type of animal it is. For example, animals like lions have their eyes facing forward, because they are predators. Animals like zebra, however, have their eyes on the sides of their heads because they are prey and they need to be able to see more of what is around them.

Typically in American English the statement would be "a cow is a useful animal" - the first sound in useful is close enough to a consonant that most individuals will use "a" rather than "an".
