It's hard to ask them though. Our own internal time clock that senses time is the SLC18A2 10q25.3 gene called the god gene also called the body clock.
Also found in animals.

An internal time clock is just an instinct; one of many instincts that animals possess; humans have that too; but it’s not time as we humans define it.

Non-human animals lack the intelligence to plan using ‘time’. Animals can wait for events to occur, like when they see a prey and wait in hiding, but that’s not the same as planning time-wise.
