The fruit flies disappear from my garden when there is "zero" fruit. Their "message" is clear enough. Am I missing something here?

My dog knocks over his dish when there's no food. Does that count??

My avian companions Peppy and Mischief Bird fully support the research involved in this study. (smile) They feel it's obvious that the avian species, patently superior, has much to teach their human and mammalian brothers and sisters.

In other words, Go Birds Go!

I saw an African Grey in a shop over the weekend.

It must have a concept of zero.

When I asked it if Polly wanted a cracker, it said nothing.

I love African Greys (smart birds).

BTW, my conure says 'Uh oh!' when he see's the cats and "OUCH!" when he nibbles my ear.
