some primates have been taught to use sign language. cats and dogs may sit in front of a door if they want to go out
The only examples of sign language use in animals were some primates who were taught by humans. But they do not reproduce the full range of language when communicating with each other.
Lucy communicated using sign language, as she was a chimpanzee who was taught how to communicate in this way by her trainer and researcher, Dr. Francine Patterson. Lucy was able to learn hundreds of signs and use them to express her thoughts and needs to humans.
Some animals have been observed using fire as a tool for hunting or foraging, such as the black kite that spreads wildfires in Australia to flush out prey. However, intentional use of fire by animals is rare and not well-documented.
Francine Patterson was a psychologist who worked with Koko, a gorilla known for her ability to communicate using sign language. Patterson taught Koko over 1,000 signs and conducted groundbreaking research into animal intelligence and communication.
Yes. Dogs and many other animals can be trained to follow commands. Animals can communicate betwixt each other and we can understand their expressions. Some primates and parrots have been taught a limited vocabulary.

no, it is instinctual
Some birds can imitate the sound of human voices and therefore some words. Gorillas and chimps can be taught sign language, which they can use to communicate with each other and humans.
Any skill, knowledge, or behavior can be taught through various methods such as instruction, practice, and guidance. The extent to which something can be taught may vary depending on the complexity of the subject and the abilities of the learner.

animals in the wild are taught through the examples of their elders. the mothers will take them out and have them watch, and eventually they will join in the process. animals that are in captivity have to be taught through human interactions.
Communication between animals is vital, because without it they would have no chance in surviving in the wild. They need to be taught how to hunt and defend themselves against other animals. They also need to communicate danger or a crisis to far areas where their breed might be. All of these steps require communication. Each generation of animals must teach the next how to communicate effectively.
Animals do interact using sounds, especially the whales and dolphins. Some people believe that these animals can actually communicate. However to talk like a human you have to have the correct type of voice box and have this supplied richly with nerves that go to a specially developed area of the brain. It is interesting that chimps have been taught human sign language and demonstrate that they can communicate using it. This shows that they can "talk" but their larynx does not allow them to vocalise speech.
No, not like people, but they can communicate in other ways. Several have been taught sign language.
The teachings of the ancestors and remembering the tings that the animals taught back when the animals were people.
He taught students who were deaf how to communicate. He believe that electricity would be the key to allowing deaf people to communicate and learn language.
